Post Script

How are we all connected as a family, and what is the value of gathering to worship together (even when our kids are running around and drawing on the program!). Chris and Dave talk about what we learned this past Sunday, and why we value worshipping together as families.

What kind of wisdom can we find in Ecclesiastes, and is everything really meaningless? What is the author trying to tell us, and how should we understand the carpe diem passages? Paul and Dave jump into our new series and wrestle with how we can know a good God in the midst of a hard lived life.

What does it mean to obey Jesus as Lord? Are we falling into the trap of "cultural Christianity," or do we bring our lives back to the word of God, the way of Jesus and the whisper of the Holy Spirit? Join Pastor Brad and Dave as we wrap up our habits series.

Money - we all think about it lots, but it's a bit taboo to talk about. What does Jesus say about money and giving? Is giving to the church a habit I need, or am I okay just giving to my favourite non-profit? What about if I've got a lot of debt? Join Paul and Dave as we talk through some of the hard questions around generosity and money.

We're busy - all of us - so how do we develop a habit of rest? More importantly, why do we need to rest, and what does it help us understand about God and ourselves? Join Paul and Dave as we explore the biblical foundations of rest, why distractions are so dangerous, eliminating side hustles, and understanding sabbath.

How do we study the Bible and find wisdom in it? Paul & Dave explore keystone habits, the difference between wisdom and knowledge, and some great resources to help build the habit of studying Jesus.

Why are habits so important, and how do we go about forming new ones? What are the cues that help us pray more, and what habits do we need to remove to be successful in praying more? Join us as we start our first series of 2020!

Sure, Christmas is all about love, but loving ALL is a pretty high bar. What does indifference look like, and what does it have to do with the marginalized? Who is the hero in our story, and how do we become registers in all the right ways? Listen in on the last of our conversations this Advent.

The other side of the spend less coin - giving more. How do we show up, listen up, and give up (as in give more!) like Jesus, and how do we find ourselves in the Christmas story? Join us as we continue our journey through Advent this year!

Sure, spending less around the holidays sounds like a good idea, but are we going to be perceived as being cheap if we just give a donation in leu of a gift card? How do we practically give presence and experiences, and what about those who's love language is gifts? Join us for a conversation around our gift giving habits and how to intentionally engage them to be more shaped by Jesus.

In this season of busyness, concerts, gifts and parties, how can we worship fully? What would our traditions look like if we reimagined them through the lens of how they can point people to Jesus? Join us as we embark on week one of this season of preparation for Jesus' birth!

What does the Bible say about joy, and how do we protect ourselves from worry and anxiety? We explore some practical suggestions and habits that we can use to recognize that God is in control of our external circumstances and help us better manage our inner thoughts.

Are our motives really good when it comes to serving others? How do we know when to step out and do something, and how can we serve in costly and personal ways without just trying to get something out of it? Paul and Dave chat about this and more in our series in Philippians.

Does Jesus' call to be salt and light mean that we're all missionaries? What's the difference between someone who's working at the Amazon warehouse here and someone who's translating the Bible in the Amazon rainforest? Paul and Dave dig into these and more as we reflect on Mission Sunday.

"Humility isn't thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less." Joy and contentment come from understanding who God says we are, but how do we actually do that? What does it look like? Paul and Dave talk about transactional relationships, The Incredibles, and where self help gets it wrong.

What's the difference, and how does one seem fake? What does control have to do with joy, and what about those who wrestle with mental health? Paul & Dave discuss this and more as we dive into our new series in Philippians called #joy

How do we develop and attitude of thankfulness instead of the stock polite answers? We explore what it takes to see well, pause long enough to be thankful, and what worship (and attending church!) has to do with thankfulness on this Thanksgiving weekend.

There's a reason why just showing up for church, reading your bible, and even listening to a great Podcast isn't all that we're called to as followers of Christ. We chat about the need to show up, in person, to tell stories and to serve each other if we want to grow and become a part of Spirit-infused community.

What can we learn from Jesus' little dinner chat with the Pharisees and law makers? Brad and Dave talk about the ways we often try to keep the outside clean, how to talk to our friends about sin, and the ways that we miss the mark when we substitute rituals for relationship.

How much do we need God's love? How do we walk the line between the guilt of what we've done and pridefully assuming that we don't really need forgiveness at all? In our second week in our Around the Table series, we look at another meal with Jesus and what it shows us about serving others.
