    Parable of the Shrewd Manager (Clarke Scheibe)

    Parable of the Shrewd Manager (Clarke Scheibe)

    This talk is on the perplexing parable of the shrewd manager and how Jesus's teaching has implications for how we are to think of our money and our possessions. Jesus had to tell this parable in a surprising way, to catch people off guard and to help them understand something new. Perhaps it will catch you in a new way of thinking!

    E.T. and Human Significance in the Large Cosmos (Dr Dennis Danielson)

    E.T. and Human Significance in the Large Cosmos (Dr Dennis Danielson)

    The more we learn about our Universe filled with galaxies, the smaller and perhaps the more insignificant we and our Earth can appear. How do we respond to this impression? How should we think about humanity’s cosmic role? What might astronomical discoveries tell us about God and the purposes of his creation?
    For this talk, we welcome guest speaker Dr. Dennis Danielson, an intellectual historian, a John Milton scholar, who has an interest in the history and literature of science. He has published several books, such as The First Copernican, The Tao of Right and Wrong, and The Book of the Cosmos.

    When Do You Know it is God’s Spirit? Discerning Unusual Manifestations (Scott Anderson, pastor)

    When Do You Know it is God’s Spirit? Discerning Unusual Manifestations (Scott Anderson, pastor)

    What are we to think when we see or hear a story of someone shaking in worship, falling when prayed for, or crying out or even laughing uncontrollably in the midst of a service or a time of prayer?  Should we conclude that the devil is running amok or that the Spirit is at hand and at work? Although this may not be our everyday experience, we all find ourselves wrestling at times to discern the Spirit's work. This lecture will seek to learn from the wisdom of an 18th century American pastor named Jonathan Edwards, who wrestled with these very questions during the Great Awakening, and left behind a framework for God-honoring discernment.

    Psalms: Our Words to God, God’s Word to Us (Clarke Scheibe)

    Psalms: Our Words to God, God’s Word to Us (Clarke Scheibe)

    The Psalms, a collection of personal and corporate prayers, is considered Israel's hymnbook and they are often our favourites to which we turn in times of sorrow or joy or petition. However, upon closer examination, we find that these psalms, written over a thousand years by several authors, were placed within an intentional structure of five books, reflecting the first five books of the Bible, the Torah. This talk will look at the themes that give the Psalms an overall trajectory, a guiding promise, which was and is fulfilled wondrously, miraculously, in Jesus.

    Walking with Loved Ones through Faith Deconstruction (Liz Snell)

    Walking with Loved Ones through Faith Deconstruction (Liz Snell)

    Increasing pressures from both within and outside the church are causing more and more people to go through a season of "deconstruction", reevaluating the foundations and assumptions of their beliefs. Some go through deconstruction and return to Christianity, while others never do. What does it feel like to go through such a major transition? And what does it feel like to be a friend or family member of someone whose faith is coming apart? This lecture will examine how friends and family members can care for those who are going through a shift in faith, while also caring for themselves.

    Who or What is the Holy Spirit? (Clarke Scheibe)

    Who or What is the Holy Spirit? (Clarke Scheibe)

    Clarke ventures into the mysterious yet wonderful reality of the Spirit. Often people speak of the Holy Spirit as a force or an impression or as a "holy ghost." The Bible speaks of the Spirit as a person yet we never see the Holy Spirit; we only see what the Spirit does. How are we to think of this Spirit who is to indwell us and to mark time since Jesus ascended?
