SUNDAY SERMONS: VIDEOS

Quenching Thirst - Pastor Paul ...
Christ offers living water to the Samarian woman at the well.
The Great Exchange ~ Dale Jones ...
Scripture: John 4:9-15. The sermon is about the offer that Jesus made to the Samaritan woman at the well, exchanging his perfect life for her sinful life. In Jesus time water was a symbol of life and so what he was offering was eternal life.
The Last Temptation ~ Rev. Steve Haughland ...
Jesus is still with us, always with us. And he exhorts us to always be kind. A wonderful message from Reverend Steve.
From the Heart ~ Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
Jayne explores the God's unceasing love for us.
The Beatitudes ~ Gwenda Poyser ...
Gwenda delves deeply into different Biblical versions of the Beatitudes to help us understand what has been called Jesus' first sermon; The Sermon on the Mount.
The Greatest Gift ~ Dale Jones ...
Dale talks about the good news, that Christ died for us and we are thus redeemed
Love ~ Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
Using the text: Isaiah 7:10-16, Jayne explores what life on earth would be like if we loved each other as if each person was the Saviour.
God's Messenger of Peace ~ Gwennie Simpson ...
Isaiah 11:1-10 speaks on "the Jesse Tree" and the peace brought to the world by the birth of Jesus. Spoken through the eyes of the shepherds/
The Redemption of Lazarus ~ Dale Jones
Remember ~ Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
Jayne remembers and affirms the lives lost in the fight for freedom and reflects on the sacrifices made.
From the Mouths of Babes ~ Gwennie Simpson ...
Be still and listen to children because sometimes God's wisdom is revealed through them.
Milk & Honey ~ Carson Ryner ...
Be thankful for God's bounty. We are called to give back the 'firstfruits' in gratitude. Focus on the good and noble things, helping others and doing our part in God's great creation. Text: Deuteronomy 26:1-11
Be Still, Be Thankful, Have Hope~Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
Stay positive, praise God and do good work!
Walk with God ~ Gwennie Simpson ...
YouTube of Gwennie's message using the text Luke 24:13-35 about meeting Jesus on the road to Emmaus following his crucifixion. Walking with God in our everyday lives.
Faithful Listening ~ Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
The text, Amos 8:1-12, raises a critical question for the church today... what are we doing with the Word God has given us? We must listen to our neighbours, not in order to respond, but to understand and to show love. Warning, slow 'Wi-Fi' causes some breaks in the recording.
The Mantle of Miinistry ...
Jesus does not force anyone to follow him, he just asks us to take on the 'mantle of ministry' and spread his message of unfailing love.
The Prodigal Son - Dale Jones ...
One of Jesus' most important parables which describes the love that God bears for his people... the forgiving love of a father.
Liberating Love ~ Jayne Odegard Dempsey ...
Love is God's true nature. We will never loose his love. God's love does not bind but empowers and liberates. It can transform our world.
Welcoming the Gentiles ~ Rev. Steve Haughland ...
Using the text Acts 10:34 - 11:18 Rev. Steve shows gentiles being accepted into the early church. Today, WE are the gentiles and yet also the 'chosen' people... chosen to share our faith in God.
Nicodemus ~ Dale Jones ...
John 3:1-21 The story of Nicodemus and his interactions with Jesus.
Mother's Day Monologue ~ Pastor Paul ...
Choir performs "In Our Hearts There Rings a Melody" and Pastor Paul performs "Hell Is Real"! Followed by "For the Beauty of the Earth" by the congregation/choir.
The Light ~ Jayne Odegard-Dempsey ...
Be the light in the darkness. Shine the light on injustice.
Journeying to Joy ~ Rev. Steve Haughland
Maundy Thursday Tenebrae ...
A poignant service of darkness and light re-enacts Christ's betrayal and arrest. Twelve candles are lit from the Christ candle, one for each disciple, but they all fall away leaving the Christ candle alone and masked in a darkened church. Jayne Odegard-Dempsey and Duncan Ferrier.
