For some it is a major quest, and for others it’s a minor quest, but a quest never the less. And that quest is weight loss. And it seems like it’s been never ending, I remember in high ...read more

    What The Hell Series

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jan 31, 2016
     | 6,209 views

    This sermon looks at the question: How can a loving God send people to hell?

    Long before I knew about God’s grace I knew about Gods’ wrath. Long before I had encountered a loving God I knew about the fires of hell. Some of those images came from culture and some came from art. All in all I think I prefer Larson to Michelangelo, but I’m that kind of ...read more

    Jesus Feeds His Hungry People

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 15, 2021
     | 6,907 views

    When we go to God through Christ, we will never walk away hungry. When we draw near to God with our whole heart, we will never walk away, disappointed. Because for us, our faithful Saviour will always provide enough—more than enough.

    If you’ve recently prayed the Lord’s Prayer, then you made the request to your Father in heaven that He would give you this day “your daily bread.” I wonder if that’s a petition we make with a lot of sincerity.

    Has anyone here ever grown fruit trees? Maybe an apple tree or a cherry tree. I am not a farmer or a gardener, but in 1990 we moved into a rented house we were told had five different fruit trees in the backyard.  When I heard that I thought, “wow that’ll be cool.” The day we arrived, one of ...read more
