Paul is locked up in prison facing an uncertain future and there are some people around him who are stirring up trouble, trying to jeopardize Paul's life and ministry. Combine this with the challenges facing the believers in Philippi, and the Philippians might have wondered - how is the gospel "good news" for us? Is this religion a blessing or a curse? Were we wrong to put our faith in the apostle Paul, seemingly a powerful leader, and now a lowly prisoner? Perhaps they thought have we suffered so much for nothing? Paul did not hesitate to respond with boldness and confidence - not only has this situation not impeded his mission; it has actually propelled it. Why? Because Paul believed the gospel of Jesus Christ is an unstoppable force. So in a way, Paul relishes when he faces an obstacle, because he knows God will find a way through it (even if the way is hard).

The life of Moses is an epic story of someone who walks with God through the highest of highs and the lowest of lows over the course of a lifetime. In the life of Moses we learn about faith, doubt, calling, leadership and the heart of God. One Bible scholar notes how the life of Moses presents a series of striking antitheses: “He was the child of a slave, and the son of a queen. He was born in a hut, and lived in a palace. He inherited poverty, and enjoyed unlimited wealth. He was backward in speech, and talked with God. He was the giver of the Law, and the forerunner of Grace. He died alone on Mount Moab, and appeared with Christ in Judea. No man assisted at his funeral, yet God buried him.” The history of such a life is well worth attention, and the principles which underlie its antitheses, invite us to a considered study of it in this teaching series.

As we move into this summer at Southview, we are in a season of transition: between what has been and what is yet to be. Each of us walks through seasons like this in our personal lives as well - times that can feel like “waiting places,” times that are “in-between.” One of the terms for these seasons of transition between one stage and the next is “Liminality.” So what do God’s people do in liminal times like these? How do we walk through "in-between" seasons in our lives? Because Scripture seems to shout that God does His best work in us while we wait. Join us on a journey through the Scriptures, discovering how our spiritual ancestors navigated liminal times, as we look to biblical truths for how we live in our own times of waiting.

Pentecost is remembering and celebrating the Holy Spirit being given to followers of Christ and the Church being founded. Red is the liturgical color for Pentecost weekend. Red recalls the tongues of flame in which the Holy Spirit descended on the first Pentecost. A tradition of some churches in ancient times was to baptize adult converts to the faith on Pentecost. The newly baptized would wear white robes on that day, so Pentecost was often called “Whitsunday” or “White Sunday” after these white baptismal garments.

One of the foundational elements of all of the New Testament letters, is the reality of the new identity that we have when we have turned to and follow Jesus: through faith in Christ we become a child of the God of creation. That reality is to mold, guide and transform us in the way we live in every area of our lives. In the second part of John’s first epistle, he provides us with understanding and guidance about how we live out that new identity in our personal lives and in our life together as a church family. For it is that new identity in Christ that provides the basis for how we change, provides the ‘seeds of transformation.’ So how do we keep from being deceived? How do we change? That will be the focus of this teaching series.

As we move together through the season of Lent, we will be looking at some of the Gospel stories of miraculous healings by Jesus. Most of these healings had unexpected elements to them, beyond the physical healing itself. They help us understand what Jesus truly offers us and what He calls us to as we serve Him. And a central, over-arching element of these healing-miracle stories, is Jesus concern for the least, the hurting, the broken and the lost. Which is a concern that Jesus wants us, His followers, to share and act upon.

Four of the stated purposes of the book of 1 John – four of the reasons why John wrote this letter - are to lead its readers to: 1) participate in deep fellowship with one another; 2) experience complete joy; 3) keep from sinning; and 4) have assurance that we are truly children of God - to know that we are born again.
John was compelled by the Holy Spirit to write this letter, because there were others around trying to “deceive” (2:26) and mis-lead God’s people. The Bible plainly teaches that it is possible for a follower of Jesus to really and actually know and experience these four things: fellowship, joy, freedom from sin, eternal life. Our prayer and aim in this teaching series is for each of us – and therefore all of us as a church family – to know and experience all of these in our journey with Christ.

During the four weeks of Advent, we will join with followers of Christ around the world in remembering the first Advent of Jesus in Bethlehem, and in preparing for the second Advent – the second "coming" - of Jesus Christ. The book of Revelation might initially seem to be an odd section of Scripture to study during Advent, but it provides profound guidance and encouragement to us as we look to that Second Advent, when Jesus comes again.

Almost everybody today has something to say about Jesus. The perspectives, not surprisingly, can be quite divergent. So who is this Jesus? Within the writings of the book of Revelation we will see the exaltation of the one who was the Instrumental Cause of Creation, who sits over all of history, who overcomes the enemy and the darkness, who calls us each to live out His new kingdom, who will be the Final Judge, and who is the Redeemer of all the Universe: the Incomparable Christ.

Anti-Christ. The Mark of the Beast. Armageddon. Paradise. These themes all find their origins in the biblical Book of Revelation. Few books of the Bible create more interest, inspire more curiosity, and even invoke more fear than this book. But what is the meaning of Revelation? How are we to read it? And how does its message speak to us today? These are the questions we will be exploring in our study of Revelation this fall and Advent. If you’ve ever wanted to know more about this book, join us for this study of the teachings of Revelation.

Polls show that most people in our society say they pray at least sometimes. However, they typically add, that doesn’t mean they’re religious. Most people today will say, “I’m spiritual and I want that spiritual connection, but I’m not religious.” Or, “I like to pray, I like the spiritual connection, but I’m not religious.” The Bible has a different perspective, though, on “spirituality.” The Bible says that authentic spirituality is not just believing in God or even talking to God. In fact, authentic spirituality, according to the Bible, is not reaching out toward God and hoping he’s there. Authentic spirituality is responding to a living God who speaks and acts and who comes to you. That’s what the Bible says, and that’s what we want to consider and learn in this summer teaching series, as we seek to learn from the great men and women of faith how to pray.

The Gospels describe numerous meals that Jesus has with others. In each of these meals, Jesus taught about the Kingdom of God and revealed important things about Himself. In the weeks of this teaching series, we'll explore these deeply meaningful stories.
When Jesus taught, he often spoke in parables – short stories which were intended to answer important questions that people asked Him: What is God really like? How are we meant to live? Why do we struggle in doing the right thing? What will life be like in the life to come? How is God at work in our world today? Through these parables Jesus sought to reveal the truths of the Kingdom of God and to teach us the meaning of life. At times, though, His stories seemed to bring more confusion than clarity. In this teaching series we will seek to understand Jesus’ teaching in the parables and also understand why He often seemed as comfortable raising questions as answering them.

No single event in human history has received more attention than the suffering and crucifixion of Jesus of Nazareth. During Lent three years ago, we walked through the final week of Jesus’ life before the Cross. This year we want to focus in even more. In this teaching series we will walk through the last twenty-four hours of Jesus’ life, that we might understand the significance of Jesus suffering and death in a way we never have before. Whether you are a long-time follower of Jesus or simply curious about the story of Jesus’s crucifixion, join us as we retrace the final 24 hours of Jesus’ life.

It feels like we’re living in increasingly difficult times. Uncertainty and conflict are pervasive in our world and in our personal lives. In light of that, we’re going to study the short Old Testament book of Habakkuk. We’re looking at Habakkuk because it tells us how to face difficult and even evil times - whether they’re your own individual challenging times (because everyone goes through very bad times), or society-wide testing times. Whether the times we face are uplifting or difficult, if you understand what the book of Habakkuk says, you’ll be ready for anything.
Our teaching from Habakkuk this week was written and filmed before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia had taken place – shifting our collective focus from the pandemic to this great calamity in eastern Europe. Please be aware that the encouragements and application points within this week’s message were not written specifically about the tragedy that is now unfolding there. We pray for the people of Ukraine as they endure this assault on their nation and we pray that God would bring His peace to that region.

Some of the most beautiful verses in all of literature are found in the Bible. Millions upon millions look to it for inspiration and guidance. At the same time, some parts are confusing and others can even be disturbing. We understandably can be led to ask many questions about it, such as: “Did God really command military violence and genocide?”; “Are these God’s Words or those of mortals?”; “How do we make sense of Scripture in light of science?” For any who have ever had questions about the Bible, we want to frankly consider these and other challenging questions in this teaching series.

During the four weeks of Advent, we will join with followers of Christ around the world in preparing for the Advent or "coming" of Jesus Christ. How could it be that the God of Creation would choose to become flesh and blood and – as Eugene Peterson put it – “move into the neighborhood.” During this special time of year, this teaching series will challenge your head and speak to your heart as we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior, the Light of the World.

As we walk through life, there are many questions that we have for God, and many times where we don’t understand what God is up to. We might even feel like arguing with Him. In line with that reality, in this series we’re looking at those times in the Gospels where people debated with Jesus - asked questions, contended with Him. And they debated with Jesus about numerous topics or issues. They debated with Him about the afterlife, about morality, about politics, and more. Join us in this series as we look into these arguments, seeking answers for our own questions for God.

Over the weeks of this teaching series, we are therefore going to look at the breadth of the hope that Christ offers us and how it can touch every area of our lives: our families, our work, creation, and even in suffering, we can find and experience hope. This week we are delighted to be joined by Michelle Dwyer as she comes to speak about Hope in Suffering.

We often read the stories of the Old Testament and think that they are primarily “morality tales”: Obey God like Moses did. Don't be like Jonah. Be courageous like Ruth. Be less like drifting like Samson. The reality, though, is that the primary purpose of the great Old Testament narratives is not to improve our morals, but to reveal the living God to us.
The Old Testament features authoritative theological teaching, but often in the form of stories, thereby teaching in the form of real human experience. In this series, we will explore stories of laughter, bitterness, bravery, doubt and power. We’ll examine wayfinders and signposts along the way that point us toward God. And we'll foreshadow the coming of Jesus

The Old Testament features authoritative theological teaching, but often in the form of stories, thereby teaching in the form of real human experience. In this series, we will explore stories of laughter, bitterness, bravery, doubt and power. We’ll examine wayfinders and signposts along the way that point us toward God. And we'll foreshadow the coming of Jesus.

I would imagine that - at one time or another - every one of us has wondered: “What happens to me after I die?” We all have a limited amount of time here; it's an unavoidable inevitability. Then what? This week we want to consider those realities as we consider another dimension of the Gospel, the Good News, of Christ: that Jesus is our Coming King.

A seasoned theologian and professor has noted, “It seems that in a lot of conversations, even with Christ-followers, that there is a wide array of concepts or understandings, some weird and wonderful, of what the “Gospel” really is.
What is it that makes it such good news? And if it really is such life-changing good news, why do so many of us struggle intensely with sharing our faith with others? Could it be we have a myopic, possibly even unbiblical view of the “Good News of Christ”? What should the Gospel look like, fleshed out in the lives we live?
Sometimes reminding ourselves of what might be considered ‘the basics’ is more necessary and beneficial than one might imagine.” So in this teaching series we are going to look at how God’s Word defines “the Gospel”, the central message that we are to declare and live out.

In this teaching series about our finances, we've noted already that the core issue behind how we approach, view and steward our finances, is actually not our finances. We can follow all sorts of good, helpful financial principles in our lives, but at some point, we need to look at the central issue or question. So join with us as we do that in our teaching today.

Few things have as much power over us as money. We work hard to earn it, yet we often don’t know where it went when it’s gone. We never feel we have enough, yet we have more of it than 90% of the population on the planet. Nearly all of us struggle with money in some way. In this 3-week teaching series we’ll consider some of the practical guidance that Scripture gives us in breaking free from the constant pursuit of more. And in doing so, we’ll discover how we can find serenity and joy even in the face of ongoing economic challenges.

As we come to our annual celebration of Pentecost and the giving of the Holy Spirit to followers of Christ, we want to ask a corresponding question. Most of us have at least one area of our lives where we would long to see transformation, growth. So in this week's study, we're asking, "How do we experience transformation in this life with Jesus?”
In this long journey with this pandemic, have you felt a bit withered, even aimless at times? You are not alone. Psychologists tell us that there’s a name for the blahs that you’re feeling: it’s called ‘languishing.’ So what guidance can we receive for enduring or overcoming the languish so many of us feel in these days? This week’s teaching guides us towards wisdom from a king who also languished."

Does God answer prayers? When we pray we are often just looking for answers, but what if the point of prayer is connection and hope? We may not always see the answer to our prayers, but we can know that God is listening in power and compassion.

Content Warning: Abortion.
There are few more emotional issues of our day than that of abortion. Those on either side of the issue typically hold their positions passionately. So how does Scripture guide us in our understanding of abortion? Specifically, what guidance does it give as to how we view a child in the womb. Join with us as we work through some of the elements of this challenging issue.

Content Warning for families: This week, Clyde interviews Daniel Komori from Journey Canada to talk about pornography and sexual addiction. Lord, grant us wisdom.
In this week's message we're looking at how to deal with our personal brokenness. We have a surprising Biblical character show us how she dealt with her brokenness and experienced the solidarity of Jesus with her condition but also in a radical way, with both physical and emotional healing.
Romans 16 brings to a close what most consider to be the greatest summary of Christian theology in all of Scripture. So how will the Apostle Paul close this grand letter? Let’s see together how he closes with some unexpected Greetings, an Exhortation and a Promise for the ages.
We grieve as we have heard reports over the past months, weeks and years of sexual abuse by Christian leaders and ministers across Christian traditions. How do we respond to this? What do we say about this? What do we need to learn? That’s our focus in our teaching as we come to Romans 15.
This week we jump back into our study of the book of Romans. And in our passage in Romans 14, the Apostle Paul tackles an issue that is as relevant for the contemporary church as it was for Roman believers in Paul’s day: “What do you do when followers of Christ disagree?”

In a survey of young adults who were not part of a church community, 92% of them said that one of their primary impressions of Christians is that they are “anti-gay.” That was one of their main perceptions of followers of Jesus. Which makes you wonder, “Would Jesus have been viewed as anti-gay?" In a previous teaching series we looked at what Scripture teaches about sex and sexuality. That’s not the focus of this message. In this message we are asking, “How do we walk with those who identify as LGBTQ?” We therefore want to consider together how Jesus would have walked with them.
"...always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it gentleness and respect." 1 Peter 3:15
How do we have these pivotal conversations with friends or family of other faiths? Today we explore two very significant questions around this issue. First, what happens from an eternal perspective to people of other faiths? And second, what is our witness as we walk with those of other faiths?
In this week's message, we examine how we can be Christ in the midst of difficult times. How do we respond when tragedy strikes? First, we consider our Christian theology around tragic and difficult circumstances in life. And second, we explore how we can walk with those experiencing grief, loss and upheaval in their lives.
Who is God calling us to be in 2021? Perhaps in the moments of silence and reflection God is speaking to us, to look deep into our hearts and consider who we are as his followers. Is there a place or part of us that is missing the mark in our journey of discipleship? Though it is scary to ask such questions, it is God's amazing grace and kindness (Romans 2:4) that make it possible. So let's be fearless and even bold in asking God to "search us and try us" (Psalm 139:23-24). Because what we want with him is genuine relationship and not just performance based religion.
Do you ever come to the end of Christmas and think, “Well, . . . that cost way more than I expected!” This message focuses on the cost of Christmas. Not merely in monetary terms, but in the impact and challenges that are always present at Christmas and in the Christmas season - including at the first Christmas in Bethlehem.
The latin phrase "contra mundum" translates to "against the world." As followers of Christ, we often feel that as we move in step with God, we're moving against the world. It can be challenging to stand firm in our faith when the current of society and culture pulls us in another direction. This week we hear the story of Rahab, a woman who stood against her culture and her world, and chose to follow God.
When tragedy and sorrow strike, we often feel that God is far from us. We feel as if we’ve been abandoned. However, this Advent the story of Ruth reminds us that God offers hope to the hopeless. At the close of one of Scripture’s bleakest chapters, we get a glimpse of God’s mercy and faithfulness. The story of Ruth ultimately points us to what God has done for us through Christ our Redeemer. We have been brought from death to life, from despair to hope.
This week: Call to Worship: Advent Week 2 Collect Songs: O Come O Come Emmanuel / Way Maker Peace of Christ Advent Reading: Love Community Life & Giving with James Wheeler Call to Listen Message Text: Ruth 1:8-17; 4:13-17 and others Benediction
At the start of his Gospel, Matthew opens not with a description of Jesus’ birth but with a genealogy. What Matthew is doing is, he’s saying, “You can’t understand the birth of Christ, you can’t just jump right to the Christmas story, unless you first look at the family tree of Jesus.” During Advent, then, we are going to focus in on four quite unexpected, even shocking, women who are named in Jesus’ genealogy as a way of better understanding who Jesus is and what He was about.
This week: Call to Worship: Advent Week 1 Collect Songs: Send Me Lord / Come As You Are Peace of Christ Advent Reading: Hope Community Life & Confession with Jon Kurtz Call to Listen Message Text: Matt.1:1-3, Genesis 38 and others Benediction

As we've said often before, one of the benefits of going through a book in Scripture passage by passage is that we are forced to work through passages and principles that we might otherwise miss or simply avoid. And this week's passage is a bit like that, because it is primarily about personal debt.
So why should the theme of "debt" be a source of hope, encouragement, and focus for us? Because this is not primarily about the kind of debt that we normally think of…

This week’s teaching is “Part 2” of our study of Romans 13:1-7. We’re building on what Dr. Bill McAlpine guided us in seeing last weekend and asking how we apply these Romans 13 principles in a day that is one of the most politically divided in recent history. What principles guide us as we seek to follow Jesus and walk as citizens in this world?
This week: Call to Worship: Psalm 29 Songs: Praise is the Highway / Heart of God Peace of Christ Community Life & Giving with Robin Johnson Call to Listen Message Text: Romans 13:1-8 and others Benediction
Romans 13 is a short chapter that continues the theme of Romans 12. How do those in Christ live, now that we have received God's great mercy for us? Paul began Romans 12 by declaring that the only reasonable response is to become transformed, living sacrifices in service to God. Romans 13 continues to describe what that Christ-like sacrifice looks like in specific application to politics, our neighbours and battling the darkness that can ensnare us.

This year for Creation Weekend we conclude our journey through Romans 12 with two affirmations and a question. First, that creation was called "good" by God, and second, human sinfulness has marred creation. In light of these two realities, how are we, as Christ-followers and kingdom builders, to live in this world and respond to those who "do evil"?

"Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. Love one another like the members of your family. Outdo one another in showing honor. Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality." Romans 12:9-13

Much mystery surrounds the spiritual gifts, and it often leaves us in confusion. We ask, “What is my spiritual gift? Should I take an online quiz to find out? What are spiritual gifts for?” In this message we are reminded that each of us are uniquely gifted to strengthen the faith of those around us.
This week: Call to Worship: Psalm 111 Songs: Build My Life / All Creatures of Our God and King Peace of Christ Community Life & Giving with Jon Kurtz Call to Listen Message Text: Romans 12:3-8 and others Benediction

Romans chapter 12 is a turning point in the book of Romans. In the previous chapters the main emphasis in Paul’s letter has been why we need a Savior and how we can receive new life in Him. With Romans 12, though, Paul begins to deal with how a follower of Christ is to live out the new life they’ve received in Christ.
This week: Call to Worship: Psalm 96 Songs: O Praise the Name (Anastasis) / 10,000 Reasons Peace of Christ Community Life & Prayers of the People with Fernando Ebanks Call to Listen Message Text: Romans 12:1-2 and others Benediction
As we launch into a new ministry season, let's take a step back to remind ourselves what we are all about.
This week: Call to Worship: The Apostle's Creed Songs: Do It Again / I Have a Hope Peace of Christ Community Life & Confession with Sam Seifert Call to Listen Message Text: Colossians 1:27-29 and others Benediction
Over the summer we’ve looked at a number of Psalms that have highlighted everything from our identity in God’s presence to how the psalmist relates to human suffering in a variety of ways. The promise of a harvest, of God's fruitfulness made manifest is a familiar theme in the Psalms but it also finds expression in the Gospels. In this message, the question of “who gets sent out into the harvest?” finds an answer in a Samaritan woman Jesus meets at a well.

We humans like to take matters into our own hands. Even when, or perhaps especially when, we get hurt by someone or are offended by someone. It’s our human inclination to want to get back at people when they do us wrong. We are drawn to vengeance, to vindication. Just look at social media. The Psalm we’re turning to in this teaching, speaks the language of vengeance and models for us what we do with it before God.

If you have ever asked the question "who am I?" or if you've ever struggled with your identity and understanding of who you are, then hear and reflect on the words of Psalm 8 which places us and our identity in the context of the wider creation, and in the heart of our Creator.
An Online Litugry in lieu of our regular weekend worship gatherings. This week: Songs: This God He Is Our God / Cornerstone Peace of Christ Community Life and Prayer of Confession with James Wheeler Call to Listen Message Text: Psalm 8 Benediction
Many times, the ways of God don’t make sense to us. Bad things happen to good people; good things happen to bad people. The Psalms are filled with questions for God, even complaints against God because of this. There is so much in life that we don’t fully understand. We might even feel that God is not treating us fairly. So what do we do? How do we find hope? Where do we find “perseverance"?
An Online Litugry in lieu of our regular weekend worship gatherings. This week: Songs: The Same Jesus / A Mighty Fortress Peace of Christ Community Life with Fernando Ebanks Call to Listen Message Text: Psalm 73 Benediction
How do we find the words for our prayers that state exactly how we feel, especially when we are disoriented by suffering and difficulty? How do we come up with prayers that express our heart ache too God in a way where we feel heard and accepted? Psalm 22 takes us to that incredibly difficult but also incredibly powerful place where we find the words to express our grief, disappointment and even anger in ways that help us to grow spiritually but also emotionally.
