Abide - The Word Feed Our Spirit

Join us as we continue with our current series, Abide.  This week Pastor Neli compares the word of God to bread in how it can nourish and sustain us.  Have you thought, If life doesn’t work out the way you want it, will you still worship God? When you consume the Word of God you will feel fulfilled.  How are we intending to feed our spirits today?

As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so whoever feeds on me, he also will live because of me.  This is the bread that came down from heaven, not like the bread the fathers ate, and died. Whoever feeds on this bread will live forever."  Jesus said these things in the synagogue, as he taught at Capernaum - John 6:57-59 (ESV)

Abide - The Word Brings Life

Join us as we continue with our current series, Abide.  This week Pastor Neli talks about how the Word of God can bring life.  When we’re able to turn down the noise of how the world defines life, our soul cries out for more meaning.  Have you every questioned if there was ever more to life?  Are you fully alive in the life God has given you?

Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life. - John 5:24 (ESV)

Abide - The Word Became Flesh

Join us as we start our new series for 2022, Abide.  In order to know and understand who Jesus was, Pastor Neli takes us back to the beginning.  Do you desire to be near to God?  There are times we need to turn down the noise around us in order to hear and live the word of God.  How close are you to Jesus, the living word?

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  He was in the beginning with God.  All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men.  The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. - John 1:1-5 (ESV)

A Christmas Story - The Birth of The Promise

Join us for a special Christmas service as part of our current series, A Christmas Story.  If Jesus was never born, our lives could be very different.  There was one who was born 2000 years ago who desires to speak new words over you to shape your future.  This is the greatest gift you can receive this Christmas.  Have you accepted true life in Christ or are you trying to live well wrapped but unfulfilled inside?

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. - John 1:1-5 (ESV)

A Christmas Story - ChristMISSED

Join us as we continue our current series, A Christmas Story. This week Pastor Neli helps us look for signs so we don't miss Christmas.  What if we miss the impact of Jesus in our lives, at the centre of the message of Christmas?  When we miss Jesus we miss the real meaning of Christmas.  Let's not be so caught up in the world that we miss Christmas.  How will you keep Jesus at the centre of your life this Christmas?

Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is he who has been born king of the Jews? For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.” - Matthew 2:1-2 (ESV)

A Christmas Story - Christmas Past

Join us for our new series, A Christmas Story.  This week Pastor Neli poses the question, “What if Jesus had never been born?”  How would we know the truth if the truth was never born?  What if God had never existed?  Would the world be any different? If Jesus is alive in you, would the world be different because you came?

And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, “Abba! Father!” So you are no longer a slave, but a son, and if a son, then an heir through God. - Galatians 4:6-7 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - The Company You Keep

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli helps us to reflect on our relationships as we compare to the friendships of Paul.  Consider the relationships and friendships you have. Who you surround yourself with will determine your direction.  God will help you to discern His will for the relationships you keep.  How is God glorified and seen in your closet relationships?

I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. - Romans 16:17-18 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - Well, Well, Well

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli teaches us how we should love well, serve well, and how to finish well before we start something new.  What has God called you to finish?

I appeal to you, brothers, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to strive together with me in your prayers to God on my behalf,  that I may be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea, and that my service for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the saints, so that by God's will I may come to you with joy and be refreshed in your company. May the God of peace be with you all. Amen. - Romans 15:30-33 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - I Problems

Join us as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything.  This week Pastor Neli teaches us about our strengths and how we can be a blessing to your community.  You have been called to a relational life of discipleship and God has given you strengths but how are you using these to help others?  What are your strengths are who is God calling you to care for?

We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves. Let each of us please his neighbor for his good, to build him up. - Romans 15:1-2 (ESV)

Grace Changes Everything - The Grey Areas

Join us at Every Nation Logan as we continue our current series, Grace Changes Everything. Have you had difficulties deciding what is right and wrong? This week Henry Peterson encourages us to seek God’s word to determine His will in the grey areas. Are you willing to let go of everything that causes you to stumble and ask the Holy Spirit how you can honour God in the situations you are faced with?

For none of us lives to himself, and none of us dies to himself. For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord's. - Romans 14:7-8 (ESV)
