Pastor Jeff spoke about the Church as a Field. Christians have so many resources to grow in our faith…apps, podcasts, online courses, seminars and retreats, Christian books and media, and now AI! What more do we need? How about a church? Today’s metaphor suggests growth takes place principally in and through the local church, God’s field, the place where God’s people grow. Jeff used 1 Corinthians 3:1-9 as his scripture.

Fake news, deep fakes, truth is stranger than fiction and My Truth. It’s hard to know where we stand and what is real! Pastor Kara explored 1 John 5: 11-15 which gives us the insider’s tip on The Truth and how to be certain of reality from illusion.

Pastor Jeff Edwards asked, "What makes you truly happy? Long weekends? A new toy? Your team winning?" As we conclude the letters of John, he emphasizes the eternal-life-long happiness found in passing on Truth and Love. Jeff preached from 1 John 5:20 – 3 John 15.

Pastor Jeff Edwards spoke about how some people feel that, if Christianity is the real deal, God should just plainly tell us. Here’s the kicker… He did! Come hear about the practical testimony of God about Jesus. Jeff preached from 1 John 5:1-10.

Guest speaker Dave Chow spoke about how sometimes loving people outside our family is easier than loving those on the inside. 1 John’s message is a declaration of who God is, and therefore who His church (that’s us), is called to be. In 1 John 4:17-21, we are challenged to love our neighbours - and more specifically, our brothers and sisters (in Christ).

Associate Pastor Valerie Salkeld asked if Passover still matters. The Last Supper was, and still is, hugely significant for us as we think about Jesus' last week on earth. We will look at the elements of the Last Supper and see how, from the beginning, Scripture was pointing to Jesus and His deep love for us. Valerie focused on Mark 14:12-26.

Pastor Jeff Edwards spoke about how if you love someone, you want to believe them. But with so much information coming at us these days, can you believe all of it? In fact, there’s now a new emphasis on “fact-checking”. How do Christians fact-check? The Apostle John gives us the loving answer! Jeff used 1 John 4:1-6 as his scripture.
