May Love Alone for Wrong Atone

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. —1 Peter 4:8 (NIV) Our church sings the Canadian national anthem on two occasions every year.

Sunday Night Study: “Those People”

We all know about “those people”: the needy, the manipulative, the hypocritical, the just plain critical! On Sunday Nights, January 8-29, we’re going to watch and discuss the video series from Pastor Greg Groeschel from LifeChurch.tv. Here’s a video promo for the series:

Silent Night! Holy Night!

Joy to the World (Isaiah 52)

My Food is to Do the Will (John 4:27-45)

Pastor Wendy shared the tenth message in our John series last Sunday. (Yes, the tenth, and we’re only in chapter 4!)
