Worship as Sabbath Rest

Have you ever heard someone say, “There are not enough hours in the day to do what I need to do!” How many of us Torontonians feel the same way? Life is busy, work is demanding, families are needy, and school can be overwhelming. How can we buy more time? Some try to wake earlier and sleep later and skip lunch to maximize productivity. What if someone told you that taking…

What Is Worship?

Have you ever heard or used the expression: “He worships the ground she walks on”? Or it could be said of anyone who is infatuated with another person. You immediately get a sense that the couple is in love or, at the very least, one person is the focus of a great deal of attention and adoration. Worship as a word is often misunderstood or applied in a way that is far…

Remembrance Day

On November 11 millions of people around the world offer a tribute to veterans and soldiers who lost their lives to war.  It is a day to honour soldiers past and present, and remember the sacrifices made to secure our freedoms.  When a day is given this level of reverence, we can’t help but consider why it is important to remember.  How are our lives today helped by…

iCrave: A Stronger Me (Part 3 of 3)

Best selling author Stephen Covey said, “Each of us tends to think we see things as they are, that we are objective. But this is not the case.

iCrave: Something to Change Me (Part 2 of 3)

Have you ever wondered why fashion trends change so often? You can finally afford those great pair of jeans everyone is wearing, then the style or color or cut changes. What once gave you satisfaction is less appealing now.  Maybe designers have figured out that people get bored easily without change…or it’s just a way to keep people spending and the economy…

iCrave: Something to Sustain Me (Part 1 of 3)

Some people crave sweets. Nutritionists say that this kind of craving may be the result of a deficiency in certain essential minerals in the body. After vigorous exercise, the body typically craves sodium because of the amount lost during sweating.  In general terms, the human body can only survive two to three days without water. A craving is often defined as a yearning…

World Changers – Community

Today people ‘hang out,’ ‘hook up,’ and ‘chill,’ together. This could refer to anything from socializing and meeting friends at a mall, to dating, or more fleeting and self-serving encounters. In some circles, people ‘get together for afternoon tea’ or ‘grab a coffee’ after the gym.  Or you might connect on Facebook or keep your exchanges to 140 characters or less. Do any…

Thanksgiving Celebration

If you have ever been in charge of cooking a traditional Thanksgiving Day meal for a large number of people, you have probably fretted over the provisions: Is the turkey big enough? Will it turn out right and be ready when the guests arrive? Will there be enough stuffing and cranberry sauce for everyone at the table? Or perhaps your goal for the Thanksgiving weekend is to…
