You can Find Courage!

Oh Yes! You have found, or can find courage! Whether you seek courage in personal relationships, work, faith or monumental societal changes, you have capacity to find it. Learn from the Apostle John in week two of eight “COURAGE!” Campaign messages.

The Road of Courage

Go ahead, choose a way! At the crossroad of timidity & courage, you must decide which direction to proceed. Whether you seek courage in personal relationships, work, faith or monumental societal changes, there is a source of courage. Pastor Ken starts week one of eight “COURAGE!” Campaign messages, inspired by Apostle John’s 1st letter.

We are at a Crossroad!

It is a crossroad! Yes, we are at the crossroad of timidity & courage. Perhaps you have been there before; certainly through COVID-19 pandemic, postmodern realities, & western Christianity we face vistas that may demand courage. Tune in, as Pastor Ken reviews the divine charge in Joshua 1, as we launch the “COURAGE!” Campaign of Fall 2020.

You Have Arrived!

You Have Arrived! It may not look like what you expected, but indeed you have arrived – to at least 3 destinations: the end of this series on travelling, day 168+ of COVID-19 pandemic, and … to God’s plan for you – if you are willing to accept it. Contemplate the triple truths of Psalm 103, Luke 18 & Galatians 6: LOOK UP, SPEAK UP & STAND UP, and get ready for the greatest arrival yet.

When you travel, who is driving?

With whom do you travel? How? And who is driving, navigating or piloting? Pastor Ken delves into a profound mystery in our life’s journey, with reference to Jesus’ discourse & prayer in John 14 – 17. Indeed, you do not travel alone, nor are you driving. Consider your own life’s journey on your ‘life’s bus’ – where you have come from, where you are. Next week: where are you going?

With Whom Do You Travel?

The lovable summer adventure companions Calvin & Hobbes – from Bill Watterson’s comic strip, introduce a deeper truth for our  journey as we think on, ‘with whom we travel’. Consider Jesus profound words in the end of John 16 and his prayer of John 17 as brilliant directions for the indwelt life. The original John Calvin &  Thomas Hobbes provide some real clarification as we celebrate communion together.

Need a Break?

Need a break? Today is your day! If you need a rest – a ‘way-house’ on the journey of life, take a moment to reflect on the story of David & Abigail; you will probably find yourself somewhere in the story. Pastor Ken looks at 1 Samuel 25 – a keen story of busyness & bother, sharing & summer heat, a request of a guest seeking a rest and … romance. Be entertained by the best of storytellers and feel your strength return.

Are You Tempted to Speed?

Are you a speeder? Come on, admit it. Pastor Ken confesses the sin of acceleration and … pride. In our journey through life every one of us gets ahead of God, His plan for us, and sometimes even ahead of ourselves. The consequences of this sin of excess will come; you will stop! We consider two brothers of the early church – Joseph of Cyprus & Soul of Tarsus, Acts 4 & 9, and learn some healthy advice from James 4.

Life’s Circuitous Journey

Life is jam packed with the circuitous journey; we accelerate, turn, cruise, slow down for roadblocks, make detours, and find a new road, only to repeat. We find these dynamics in relationships, school pursuits, career, adventuring & indeed travel. Listen in as Pastor Ken uses this analogy to reflect on God’s journeys for Jesus,  Mary & Joseph and … you.  Learn how to face circumstance, character & Christlike roadblocks on the paths we trek.
