Good Friday

Join us for a contemplative Good Friday Communion Service as we reflect on the cross the cross and the "nail-scarred hope" that we now have because of Jesus!

“Follow Me” Mark 1:16-20

We follow a lot of different things and people in this life. We follow people on Twitter and Facebook. We follow sports teams and celebrities. We follow our favourite TV shows and movies. But what did Jesus mean when he said to his disciples (and now to you and to me) to "Follow me"?

The Opening Scenes, Mark 1:9-15

In the Gospel of Mark, the spotlight is now in Jesus as he comes on to the scene. What can we learn about Jesus and his message in these opening scenes?

“Prepare the Way” Mark 1:1-8

"This is the Good News about Jesus the Messiah, the Son of God." (Mark 1:1)

Join us as we discuss the good news of Jesus Christ and the role of John the Baptist in "Preparing the Way" for the Messiah. What if you and I are called to do the same?

The Farmer & The Seed

What does Jesus' Parable of the Farmer and the Scattered Seed have to teach us about being Deeply Rooted in Christ?

Deeply Rooted in Love

It's Valentines Day and love is in the air! Join us as we talk about how being deeply rooted in Christ is to live in love and to have love define every aspect of our lives.

Deeply Rooted Community

We were created for real, authentic relationships. The Bible teaches that we can never become who God created us to become without them. But why then do we so often settle for fake, fickle, and superficial relationships instead? What does it look like to experience “Deeply Rooted Community” together? Join us Sunday to find out!

Deeply Rooted Generosity

Money. We talk about it all the time. We think about all the time. Some of us fight about it with our spouses all the time. And yet it rarely gets talked about in Church. Why is it that we so often separate our finances from our spiritual lives and spiritual journeys? How should people who are “Deeply Rooted” in Christ think about and handle our money?

Deeply Rooted Character

To be deeply rooted in Christ is to become like Christ. Listen as Jeff teaches from Galatians 5:16-26 on what it means to be led by the Spirit and to become like Jesus.
