We Want to See Jesus

1 Timothy 5:8 But those who won't care for their relatives, especially those in their own household, have denied the true faith. Such people are worse than unbelievers. Reflection: The people of God are called to care deeply about their family.  This makes sense since God himself is somehow one Divine Being, yet simultaneously a family of three persons.  It is a mystery we can't fully comprehend, but it helps us understand why loving family

Seeing God in our Neighbours: Next Door & Neighbourhood Networks 

Genesis 33:9-11 9 But Esau said, "I already have plenty, my brother. Keep what you have for yourself." 10 "No, please!" said Jacob. "If I have found favour in your eyes, accept this gift from me. For to see your face is like seeing the face of God, now that you have received me favourably. Reflection: One of the best places we can find God is in the faces of other people.  When we receive forgiveness,

Resting In God’s Love

Psalm 62: 5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;    my hope comes from him. 6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken. Reflection: In our work-weary culture, true rest is hard to find.  Too often we can make our life with Jesus reflect the whirlwind around us.  We try to do good, be better, and strive to be righteous.  It is not that we

Emerging Generations

Father, Each morning, I wait for my classroom of bustling students to arrive. As they enter the hallway, I listen. And so their stories are told. In their words and by their actions, I am reminded daily of the battles your children face. One where they struggle to accept their differences as beauty. One where their own communities refuse to accept their unique quirks and gifts as valuable. I hear it in the way they

Neighbourhoods, Networks & Communities

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these. Mark 12:31 Neighbourhoods Take a moment to think about where you live. Your neighbourhood. Take a look outside and look at your street. Maybe you know your neighbours by name or you just know their faces or maybe you don’t know them at all. Take a moment and pray for them.  When we pray for those that we may

Vision/Mission, Leadership & Staff

Good, Good Father, We come to you with thankful hearts, ready to start a new year in your Son's strength. There is so much to do oh Lord, and yet we know if we do not do it by keeping in step with your Holy Spirit that we will labour in vain. And so we ask God that you would attune us to your voice. May our choices reflect your will. We ask and pray

The Forgotten

I remember a Friday night many years ago when friends going away for a weekend left without me simply because I couldn’t get off work till 6pm.  I’ve since recovered from that slight (even had a good weekend without them!) but it was no fun at the time to be forgotten. You likely have a story of being forgotten.  It may be a profound story that has shaped your life or an easily forgiven oversight
