Have you ever asked the question, “Who am I?” Have you ever felt like the words someone spoke about you, even years ago, carry more weight than they should? Do you ever feel judged? In this message, Pastor Daniel Bell walks us through a section of Luke 7 and an unexpected encounter Jesus has with two people – a religious person and a sinful woman. He’ll show us how – and why – Jesus removes the labels to go after the heart.

How often do you find yourself in a place of silence and solitude? Our souls long for this – we were designed for it – but we’re busy. We’re addicted to our phones. We replace moments of boredom (standing in line, driving, walking to the mailbox, or eating breakfast) with a constant and continual scroll. What is it about silence that we find so difficult? In this message, Pastor Daniel Bell leads us through a section of Luke 5 as we look at how Jesus’ ministry was effective because he knew the value of time alone with God and how we can have a greater impact on others when we recognize the unexpected value of spending time alone in the wilderness.

Have you ever met someone who blew your mind? There’s just something about people who can draw us in. But how do we distinguish between what captivates our attention and what captivates our heart? It takes wisdom, and Jesus has a lot to teach us on the subject. In this message, Pastor Daniel Bell leads us through a section of Luke 2 as we explore this topic and learn from some of Jesus’ first recorded words.

What do you think of when you think of worship? You might think of singing, or nature, or coming together as a community, but what does worship actually mean and why does it matter who or what we worship? In this message, Pastor Daniel Bell leads us through scripture as we take a look at worship as an indicator of love, how it shapes who we are, and why we need to be careful of what (or who) we put at the centre of our hearts.

Today, we look at our calling to sharpen, and be sharpened by, others.
