God of This City – Part 3

Cities have nicknames that reveal their personality or something they are known for; these names are designed to inspire people to visit there, live there, or learn more. Chicago is called the Windy City, Las Vegas is Sin City, Detroit is Motor City, and New York City is the Big Apple.  Paris is known as the City of Lights or the City of Love. Rome is the Eternal…

God of This City – Part 2

What happens when a group of young Christians moves into neighbourhoods that are messy and have high crime rates, high poverty rates, and low standards of living?  Neighbourhoods like these have people who come from nations who have little access to the good news of Jesus Christ. Come this Sunday, to Innis Town Hall. and listen to Nigel Paul, founder of MoveIn, as he…

God of This City – Part 1

The nations of the world have been brought to the cities.  Toronto is the largest city in Canada, with over 5.7 million people living in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA), and over 50% of the residents were born outside the country, making Toronto the world’s most ethnically diverse city.  God has brought the nations to the city of Toronto for a reason.  Djastin Park,…

You thought it was one thing, but it turned out to be another.  Sometimes, in life, things just…

Forgiven – Part II: Prodigal Son

Have you ever noticed that brothers and sisters in the same family can have vastly different personalities? One can be studious, and another very social. One can do everything ‘by the book’ while the other likes to ‘live on the edge.’ One brother wants to settle down and start a family while the other prefers life in the fast lane. There is an account in the Bible of two…

Forgiven

There is a fascination with superheroes, maybe because they have powers that give them superhuman abilities. Many comic book heroes get their special powers after being exposed to some kind of radiation, as happened with the Incredible Hulk and Spiderman. Whatever their origins, their ability to go above and beyond human limitations makes them unique and attractive. But…

Never Lose Heart: Hope

“As for me, I will always have Hope. I will yet praise the Lord.” There are times in life when things come crashing in around us and we feel unable to go on.  Even when we are totally reliant on the Lord, and faithful, situations can still arise that challenge our resolve – and we hit the wall spiritually.  What do we do in those instances?  How do we…
