“Honest to God” by Josh Weidmann Moody Publishers Summary Josh Weidmann uses his love for scripture and wonderful ability to craft powerful illustrations to make complex, emotional and theological concepts understandable in this helpful book. His desire is to help you drop every barrier standing between you and God. Why? Because ābeing honest with God leads to transformation, because it […]
(Click here for the sermon video) Iāve watched the Passion of the Christ on Good Friday almost every year since it came out in 2004. Itās not that I love the movie, or that I find it entertainingā¦ in fact most years itās not even convenient. If you were here on Good Friday, or perhaps in your own personal reading […]
(Click here for the sermon video.) God has been writing a story since the beginning of time and it is EPIC. What follows is a brief history of the universe […]
Developing close friendships and meaningful relationships with other believersĀ isn’tĀ easy and can be quite intimidating to talk about. If it was easy, it would be happening, but unfortunately itĀ isn’t. Impersonal Churches You’ve all heard, and maybe even shared, the criticism that ābig churchesā are impersonal. You can walk in and walk out, and though you are surrounded by hundreds of people, […]
I wasĀ privilegedĀ to be able to give another talk for theĀ AWANAĀ program. I called this one “Know The Truth” and it was given to a group of kids aged 5-12 and their leaders. I believe it has a message we all need to hear, no matter what age we are. Here’s the audio (11 minutes): Spot The Difference Do you ever play […]
It is my deep desire to help you pursue your faith, fall in love with Jesus and His church, serve and make your church the place where you expect great things to happen. What happens in the Christian Church is what is going to last for eternity. What we do together is what we will be talking about and celebrating […]
I’m a HUGE fan of the AWANA program and have been blessed with the opportunity to speak a couple of times. Last night I gave a talk called “What’s In a Name?” to a group of kids aged 5-12 and their leaders. It’s an adaptation of the sermon I gave on Sunday, but I was amazed how God changed the […]
For some, a āchurchā is simply a building. If you punch the word āchurchā intoĀ Google imagesĀ thatās what you get ā pictures of beautiful buildings. You’ve probably been asked the question, “Do you go to church?”, as though “church” was a destination to reach, or an address to be found. If it was the middle of the night and you happened […]
There is no simple answer to this question because Christians are multifaceted: they believe certain truths, do amazing things, and they experience the power of God. I Want What They Have Iāve heard a lot of peopleās testimonies and one common phrase that keeps coming up is: āI want what they have.ā Many peopleās testimony has a scene where […]
(Sorry about the audio, we’re working on it!) One of my favourite preachers, Mark Driscoll, had a very good, insightful Facebook update this week. He said, āAll theology is cat […]
(If you would like to see the sermon video, click here.) Iāve talked previously about the importance of having foundational, fundamental, bedrock beliefs that every Christian can affirm, no matter where they are, what tradition they come from, and what language they speak. The central theme of this series Iām calling āThe True Gospelā was the introduction of the Five […]
My nephew was asked to put together a report on Mardi Gras which reminded me of a reflection piece I had written that might be of help to him, and hopefully you too. Throwing the Baby Out With the Bath Water The traditional Christian season of Lent starts on February 13 this year. Christians have been practicing the 40 days […]
(This is a follow-up post toĀ The Foundations: The True Gospel) The Second is Sola Gratia, or Grace Alone, was the overarching theme of the Reformationists, not because the Roman Catholic Church was teaching that salvationĀ isnāt from the Grace of God found in Jesus, but because they teach thatĀ other thingsĀ must to be done as well. They teach that it is Jesus […]
(This is a follow-up post to The Foundations: The True Gospel) Sola Scriptura, or Scripture Alone, is the principal and belief that The Bible is the supreme authority in all spiritual matters. It is the acknowledgement that the Bible contains the very Words of God. They are not, as 2 Peter 1:16 puts it, ācleverly devised mythsā, but are divine […]
Controversy & Division The church deals with a lot of issues, and there are a lot of controversies swirling around both inside and outside the body of believers. Moral questions, […]
