    God, through the Apostle Peter, gives us several images of what it means to be a Christian rightly connected to Christ and to each other. Holding onto these images can help us weather the storms of life.

    1 Peter 2:2-10 Who You Are in God’s Eyes Happy Mother’s Day, church! If you are able to join us for our 11:00 Zoom call today (that is, Sunday), mothers, we’d like you to show us a picture of you and your kids, maybe when they were young, if you have one handy. Mothers often are the glue that ...read more

    The people were discouraged at the modest structure of the new Temple as they started rebuilding it. God assured them of His presence, His promise, and His power. The future glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house.

    Let’s recap. The Israelites came back from 70-years of captivity in Babylon. • They rebuilt the altar and started work on the Temple but the local Samaritans opposed them (cf. Ezra 3). • They were so discouraged they stopped work for some 16 years. Nothing was done to God’s house while they busy ...read more

    Jesus has called all of us, not just a special few, to be living stones in His spiritual house. The called ones stand on Jesus the cornerstone who makes us a chosen people, a royal priesthood and a holy nation.

    Message 1 Peter 2:4-12 In Fellowship Together – Being Called When did you know you were called? It is a question I have been asked regularly as a Pastor. The answer is for another time … but for now I want to get us to think about the question. Because, for some who ask the question, there is a ...read more

    God Sees You, Not Only As What You Are, But As What You Are Becoming

    When Jesus met Simon, he named him "Peter", or "Rock", even though Peter's character at that time was decidedly un-rocklike. But Jesus saw what he would become, just as he sees as, not only as we are but as what we will become in Him.

    The first thing we notice in these seven verses is the number of references to stones. Living stones. Precious stones. Corner stones. Stones that are chosen by God but rejected by men. A stone that causes people to stumble and fall. Now, think about that for a moment. Why would that be? Why would ...read more

    Unrighteous people vote AGAINST the church with their feet and their pocketbooks in order to "get their way." Righteous people should vote FOR their church with their feet and their pocketbooks. How can we do that?

    What The Lord's Prayer Teaches Us About Fellowship And Community

    Contributed by Matthew Redder on May 4, 2018
     | 3,207 views

    In the Lords Prayer as seen in Matthew 6:9-15 Jesus not only teaches us HOW to pray but also gives us insight into how he views the community of faith.

    There are many cases to be made for the community versus the isolated individual. Not only do we see a biblical theme that rebukes isolationism, but one that admonishes our need for one another. One of the strongest biblical arguments for the community comes from the Lord’s prayer as seen in ...read more

    Ladders are useful tools in our daily life. However, if you haven’t learned the “Ladder Lessons”, then you won’t take advantage of their ability to take us to new heights.

    I. Introduction I know ladders are not uncommon or awe inspiring. They are simply an everyday tool that we use to reach heights that we would otherwise be unable to reach. So, there is nothing really mind blowing about that. However, because they are so common and because most of you have used a ...read more

    Building Blocks In God's Holy House

    We are “living stones,” called to be linked with one another in Christ, tightly integrated like stones in a wall. This requires us to strengthen our connections with each other, in fellowship, mutual support, and prayer.

    God has given us a real blessing in this church building. In many ways, it’s a hub for congregational life. It serves as a centre of our worship, our learning and study, and it’s a place for our communion together. It’s a good gift of God to us. Yet how does the Bible speak about our places of ...read more
