    A message from Acts 17 regarding Paul's ministry in Athens exposing the false gods of then and now.

    Acts 17:16-31 – Paul in Athens Move #1 – What idols do you see in Canada? (Hockey?… a minor god at best… Success? Money & greed? – yes - the bible told us this truth 2000 years ago. A relatively new god is the Self! …and its attractive, but misleading nickname - “Happiness.” This is ...read more

    Acts 17:1-15 teaches us what characterizes people who turn the world upside down.

    Introduction Years ago, I saw an advertisement for the “perfect” pastor. Here is what it said: • The perfect pastor preaches exactly 10 minutes. • He condemns sin roundly but never hurts anyone's feelings. • He works from 8 AM until midnight and is also the church janitor. • ...read more

    The reality of God's sovereignty over all creation and the implications of that sovereignty for our lives.

    Go! And Acknowledge God's Sovereignty Introduction Today, we dive into a profound and challenging truth captured by David Platt's powerful words: "The most offensive claim in Christianity is that God is the Creator, Owner, and Judge of every person on the planet." These words ...read more

    God will complete His work in us as we partner with Him in His work.

    God Finishes What He Starts Philippians 1:1-6 Rev. Brian Bill January 4-5, 2025 This past week, ABC News ran a post with the same headline twice within five days, using a different image of an empty church each time: “Churches Fight to Stay Open as Attendance Dwindles.” It’s as if the editors ...read more

    Receiving The Holy Spirit (The Gentile Pentecost) Series

     | 771 views

    Repentance brings life to a person, because God has called us to Himself. And once called, we have a choice to make – this is what the people felt. God was calling them, His Spirit was moving them, and they had to respond!

    To the Ends of the Earth, Part 16 Receiving the Holy Spirit (The Gentile Pentecost) Acts 10:44 – 11:18 Introduction - Welcome to Seasons Church & 2024 sermon series, “To the Ends of the Earth” -- In 2023 we unpacked the beginning of all history (Creation/Fall/Promise) -- And we looked ...read more

     | 1,860 views

    Imagining how and why Lydia moved from being a pagan to a god-fearer, and then to beecoming a follower of Jesus.

    This is the story of Lydia, the first woman pastor in the Christian church (at least as far as we know). And it almost never happened. You see, Paul and Silas hadn’t planned to go to Macedonia at all. They had hardly begun to scratch the surface of Asia Minor - that’s where present-day Turkey is. ...read more

    We Must Obey God Rather Than Men

     | 2,496 views

    Where does obedience to the command of men stop and obedience to God begin?

    We must obey God rather than Men Acts 5:26-33 Sometimes, the Scripture seems to put us in quite a dilemma. Peter’s response in the passage we just read shows that Peter’s response to the High Priest’s charge that the Apostles had disobeyed the strict prohibition of the Sanhedrin that they should ...read more

    Teaches about the Parable of the Sower where Jesus tells His disciples about how the Word of God will be received & what it will produce

    How Rich is Your Soil? In several instances Jesus gave lessons by telling stories called “parables” because they required some thought to fully understand. The lessons were intended for the people who were truly wanting to know more of the Kingdom of God. He wasn't interested in those who came ...read more

    While we so readily set ourselves up as judge and jury, we’re going to learn today that God alone is qualified to be the judge because He is always just and knows everything.

    Our Just God Romans 3:25-31 Rev. Brian Bill July 28-29, 2018 I came across an article in the Huffington Post a week ago.

    In this age, God is calling out a people from both Jews and Gentiles to compose the church. It is this group that will be taken out of the world at the time of the rapture. Then the great tribulation will begin.

    Pilate's statement reveals what truth is. The truth is that we can find no fault in Jesus Christ at all. That's the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!

    The Solid Truth Concerning Salvation

     | 2,801 views

    Faithful servants of Jesus Christ like the apostle Paul and those who have followed him over the centuries were obedient to His call to proclaim the gospel despite hardships and opposition. We are to be just as faithful to the LORD in proclaiming the Gospel message as they had been.

    At the end of the book of Acts, the apostle Paul is under house arrest in Rome awaiting a hearing from Caesar at his request. He is to appear before Nero and give an account of his work, teaching, and testimony concerning the Lord Jesus Christ and the salvation from sin He provides to all ...read more

    A GPS is a device to help you find your way when you're lost. Wouldn't be great if there was one for your faith? The good news is there is.

    Every phone now comes with one. However, just a few years ago, people had to purchase one. How many people still own one? I have to tell you I resisted purchasing one for some time. In fact, truth be told, the family received theirs by cashing in some credit card reward points. I resisted because ...read more
