Rueben Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 25, 2022

The book of Exodus establishes God's covenant relationship with the full-fledged nation of Israel. The descendants of Abraham prosper after settling in Egypt, only to be enslaved by a fearful, hateful Egyptian Pharaoh. God appoints Moses to lead the people out of this bondage.

His Name is Wonderful! (Exodus 6:14-25) 14 These are the heads of their fathers' households. The sons of Reuben, Israel's firstborn: Hanoch and Pallu, Hezron and Carmi; these are the families of Reuben. 15The sons of Simeon: Jemuel and Jamin and Ohad and Jachin and Zohar and Shaul the son ...read more

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Mar 19, 2022

Jesus is leaving soon. "Believe" him, ask for anything, and love one another.

This morning we continue our series in the Gospel of John. And we are one of the many points in the book, where I'm not sure how I should try to teach it. Really, chapters 13-17 work as one giant section, and we are supposed to grab them in their entirety, and hear them in one setting. ...read more

Reason Comes Home Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 17, 2025

Reason returns to peace when intellect kneels beside humility—uniting thought and wonder, truth and love, to rediscover meaning beyond knowledge.

The word reason used to sound like a promise. It meant light after darkness, knowledge after superstition, progress after fear. It built microscopes and libraries, engines and empires. It made us believe that if we only learned enough, we could cure every sickness and silence every war. But ...read more

Be In The Now

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 8, 2018

It's easy to get sidetracked and let your mind wander. We get focused on things from the past or what's in the future. This can be especially true as we head into the new year. If we're not careful we'll risk losing out on making the most of the moment.

BE IN THE NOW INTRODUCTION: Be Here Now is a book published in 1971 by Ram Dass on Hindu spirituality and yoga. I've never read the book and don't subscribe to Hinduism but the principle of the phrase itself is a valid one. Be here now communicates the importance of keeping your focus on what ...read more

God's Thoughts Toward Us

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Sep 19, 2021

"I know the plans I have for you." With these words, God tells his sinful people that He won’t cast them off but restore them. And He expresses the same grace toward us in Christ. For us, God has plans of peace! God wants us for himself. He loves us, and He wants us to love him.

How much do you think about the future? Where would you like to be, this time next year, or in five years? Or do you wonder what lies ahead for your children, your loved ones? We all know that we’re only a vapour. Our life is like the wildflowers which quickly fade. We can try plan the future, yet ...read more
