Fan the Flame: Power for Purpose | Marty Luke

In this message, Pastor Marty unpacks the explosive dunamis power of the Holy Spirit — a power given not for comfort, but for purpose. Drawing on Acts 1:8, we’re reminded that we weren’t set free to play it safe, but to step out and be witnesses to Jesus — in our homes, our neighbourhoods, and to the ends of the earth. If you’ve grown cold, comfortable, or stuck, this message will stir your heart to rise, rekindle your fire, and believe again in what God can do through you.

Comeback Stories

Everyone loves a comeback story—but what if you're still stuck on the road of disappointment? In this Easter message, we reflect on the resurrection of Jesus as the greatest comeback of all, and how recognizing His presence with us—even in pain—can turn sadness into hope. Drawing on the story of the Emmaus road, we explore how belief in the risen King brings life, joy, and the possibility of a comeback in our own lives today.

Good Friday - Sacrificial Love

As we walk through the crucifixion story, we reflect on the centurion’s transformation, and hear the powerful testimony of love in action from both scripture and lived experiences.

Spiritual & Supernatural Healing

Faith and Healing intersect in different ways for different people but one thing is constant, God is in the midst of it all.  Pastor Dave shares some deep insights into the power of prayer & faith and their relationship with healing, both spiritual and physical.

Faltering Faith | Maddy Mandell

In Mark 9:14-29 we can see the contrast in the faith of the disciples and the faith of the father with the sick son. Is your faith overconfident or weak and struggling? How can we know our nature so we can trust God deeper?

Suffering and Hope | Tim Macbride

Making sense of suffering in the world is hard... especially when it's our own suffering.  Pastor Tim takes us on a journey that leads to hope as he shares from the book of Romans.

Make Way: The Way For Our Friends | Mel Goopy

We are all on a journey of faith and we all have an opportunity to enter into a personal and intimate relationship with Jesus, but sometimes we just need a friend who is bold enough to bring us to Jesus.
Mel shares from Luke 5:17-26 where it is the boldness of the friends of the paralysed man allowed him to be touched by Jesus.

Make Way: The Way to Wholeness | Marty Luke

We all experience isolation in some way, but Jesus offers a path to true healing and restoration. Through the powerful encounter between Jesus and a leper in Luke 5, we see how Christ reaches out to the untouchable, bringing cleansing, love, and renewed purpose. What does it mean for us today? How can we move from isolation to wholeness? Join us as we explore the deep compassion of Jesus, his saving and healing touch and the call to live transformed lives.

Make Way: Old Ways, New Ways | Dan Lyons

Peter made his living by fishing so understandably he might be dismissive of a preachers suggestion on how to catch some fish.  But Peter trusts Jesus and experiences four transformative moments that change the trajectory of his life.  These same moments can be transformative for us too.  Pastor Dan explains.

Make Way: Power and Authority | Andrew McCafferty

How are we to understand the power and authority of Jesus? Andrew unpacks the story from Luke 4 when Jesus came into the presence of a demon possessed man in the Synagogue.
