Jesus And Money Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Apr 6, 2008

This is the beginning of a four week series on Jesus and Money. Week one looks at what Jesus teaches us about money.

If there’s anything more annoying then a preacher who is always bringing money into the mix it’s one who sneaks money into his messages. One minute he’s talking about love and prayer and then wham the next minute he’s talking about what people give and don’t give and then he has the audacity to ...read more

Paul's Prayer For The Church

Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008

One thing that you can notice as you look over his books is the number of prayers that Paul prays for his brothers and sisters in Christ. Several times he lets them know that he prays for them and many times he tells them exactly how he prays for them, w

This evening I would like for you to turn with me to 2 Thess. 1:11-12. I enjoy reading the letters of Paul to the churches that he had such a passion for. And one thing that you can notice as you look over those books is the number of prayers that Paul prays for his brothers and sisters in ...read more

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jan 21, 2008

A look at what defines what marriage is

Last week we began our Growing Great Families with the message “Sex, God’s Wedding gift” and I talked about how in God’s perfect plan sex was reserved for within marriage. Now most people know what sex is, perhaps with the exception of Bill Clinton. With that in mind it would only be fair to ...read more

Summer is officially wrapping up. Whether you mark it by the first day of school, which for most of us has passed, or Labor Day weekend, which is just around the corner, it is about over. That means sweatshirts and sweaters, jackets and windbreakers, will be moving to the front of our closets. ...read more

Do You Believe In Miracles?

Contributed by Ray Ellis on Jul 17, 2006

This message looks at various aspects of healing. Biblical answers are given to the question: "Does God Heal Today?"

Do You Believe in Miracles? 2 Kings 5:1-19 The World Book Dictionary defines a miracle as “A wonderful happening that is contrary to or independent of the known laws of nature.” When it comes to believing in miracles we tend to be skeptical. We hear about someone being healed and we want to see ...read more

Balancing Career And Family With Faith Series

Contributed by Greg Hanson on Apr 13, 2007

Our career and our families are two potential idols in our lives. But faith helps keep them in proper perspective and enables you to find a balance.

Last week we started our series on Canadian Idols. We explained that idols are anything in our lives that take the place of God. God alone deserves and belongs in the place of priority in our lives, and when anything or anyone pushes Him aside, that becomes an idol for us. Historically, people ...read more

The Davinci Code - Faith, Fact Or Fiction? (Part 1) Series

Contributed by Russell Brownworth on May 1, 2006

What’s the fuss about? If it’s just a novel that Hollywood turned into a movie, nobody’s going to Hell over it -- are they? ARE THEY?

Most of the time on Sunday mornings I “teach” through a sermon. Today I will preach this sermon. Teaching is an indirect way to your heart through your head. When the logic and information go through the filter of the brain, God’s Spirit molds it, shapes it into an inspirational reality and ...read more

The Nature Of Our Nature Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on May 23, 2010

Why do we do what we don't want to do? Etc, etc. In this message we look at the why and how of the sinful nature

Wow that was depressing. I would have expected more from Paul, but this just sounds like whining. I half expected him to check himself into a rehab centre by the time I got to the end of this section. But at some time in our Christian life most of us could probably identify with what Paul is ...read more

I am not one of those “crazies” that predicts that the Lord will come in the Year 2000 because we don’t know when the Lord is coming. He said, “But of that day and that hour knoweth no ...read more

A Tale Of 2 Jesus' Part 2

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Apr 7, 2010

Have you ever wondered if Christ's death had an impact on Barabbas? He knew that Jesus had taken his place on the cross.

And so this is how it would end, it wasn’t what he expected at all. On Friday he had watched as they crucified the carpenter and he walked free. And that is how it should have ended, a happy ending for him, a not so happy ending for Jesus of Nazareth, the carpenter who almost became ...read more

Come To The Table

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Nov 1, 2009

The accounts of the last supper sound more like the last snack. This message looks at what all happened that night.

Do you ever feel that you’ve only heard half the story? It’s kind of frustrating isn’t it? You wonder what else might have gone on and what you’ve missed. That’s what happens when we read the accounts of the Last Supper, it doesn’t matter if it’s one of the accounts in one of the four gospels or ...read more
