    20261103 A Conversation - Flavours of Regret (2 Cor 7.8-11)

    Cornerstone Wesleyan Church, North Gower is taking 2026 to read through and preach through the Bible using the "One Story That Leads To Jesus" Bible reading plan (created by "The Bible Project"). To this end, Pastor Nate and Pastor Dan are recording their usual "sermon prep" conversation as a podcast so you can get a bird’s eye view of the process, and perhaps grow in your own understanding and faith. This conversation is rough and unfinished, and not everything we talk about will make its way into the final teaching. But it hopefully gives you some additional food for thought.

    1 Nov 2026 'The Resilience When Tempted' Sermon 1 Cor 10.1-14

    1 November 2026 | The One Story - Resilience in the Face of Temptation | 1 Corinthians 10: 1-14 Know Christ as King (Head) K1. Read the Bible. Paul looks back at Israel's history to show how God's people experienced His goodness and provision, yet still fell into sin. Why does Paul want the Corinthians (and us) to learn from these sotries? How can reading the Bible help us navigate the challenges and temptations of everyday life? Grow in Groups (Heart) G1. Be careful. Paul says, "if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don't fall" (v. 12). Why might we be most vulnerable to temptation when we feel spiritually strong or comfortable? What does it look like to stay alert rather than becoming complacent? G2. Realize you aren't special. Paul says that our temptations are common to everyone (v. 13). Why might Staan want us to believe that our struggle sare unique, shameful or something nobody else could understand? How does knowing we're not alone change the way we deal with temptation? G3. Temptation isn't sin. The sermon makes an important distinction between being tempted and giving in to temptation. Why is it important to understand this difference? How might confusing the two cause someone to give up rather than keep fighting? G4. God is faithful. "And God is faithful" (v. 13). Why are these four words so important when we're struggling with temptation? How does believing that God is faithful challenge the idea that our temptation is too strong to resist, or that sin has become part of our identity? G5. Know your hooks. The sermon talks about recognizing the warning signs that lead us towards temptation - perhaps tiredness, emotional pressure, particular people, websites or circumstances. What are some common triggers or vulnerabilities that can make us more susceptible to temptation? Why is it important to recognise these before we find ourselves in a difficult situation? G6. Don't struggle alone. The sermon encourages us to open up to someone we trust rather than keeping our struggles hidden. Why can shame make us withdraw from others? What difference can honest, trusted Christian relationships make when we're facing temptation? Show Up and Serve (Hands) S1.Know where the exit is: Run to Jesus. Paul says God will provide a way out when we're tempted (v. 13), and the sermon makes the point that the way out is Jesus. What might it practically look like to run towards Jesus rather than simply trying to resist temptaiton in our own strength? Is there an exit you need to identify or a practiucal change you need to make this week? Four things to take away: 1. Read the Bible - Learn from the examples and warnings of Scripture. 2. Be careful - Don't be complacent or overconfident. 3. Realize you aren't special - Your temptation isn't unique, and you aren't alone. 4. Know where the exit is - God is faithful. Don't run from Jesus ; run to Him.

    18 Oct 2026 My Festus and My Agrippa - Acts 26.12-32

How does Paul's encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus change the way he understands his life and purpose? What does this teach us about what it means to follow Jesus as King? Grow in Groups (Heart) G1. Paul says, “But God has helped me to this very day” (Acts 26:22). How can remembering God's promises and past faithfulness help us endure difficult seasons? G2. Paul tells Agrippa that the Messiah's suffering and resurrection fulfil what Moses and the prophets foretold (Acts 26:22–23). How does seeing Jesus as the fulfilment of God's story strengthen your confidence in the gospel? G3. When Festus calls Paul insane, Paul responds with truth and respect rather than anger (Acts 26:24–26). What makes it difficult to respond calmly when someone mocks or challenges our faith? How can we follow Paul's example? G4. Paul describes his message as “true and reasonable” (Acts 26:25). What gives you confidence that the Christian faith is true and reasonable? How would you explain that confidence to someone who disagrees with you? G5. Paul doesn't pressure Agrippa but expresses his desire for everyone listening to come to faith in Jesus (Acts 26:27–29). How can we share the gospel with both urgency and patience, allowing the Holy Spirit to work in people's lives? G6. Paul's testimony is shaped to connect with his audience and their understanding (Acts 26:2–3, 26–27). How can we get to know people's stories and find meaningful points of connection when sharing our faith? Show Up and Serve (Hands) S1. Think of someone you know who is like Festus (dismissive of faith) or Agrippa (familiar with Christianity but undecided). What is one practical step you can take this week to pray for them, love them well, and share your faith with courage and respect?

    11 Oct 2026 | The Everyone & Everything At the Table Sermon | Acts 11:1-20

    Weekly live worship service from Cornerstone Church, North Gower (Ontario) FOLLOW US #northgowercornerstone WEBSITE https://www.knowgrowshow.ca/ INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/northgowercornerstone/ FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/northgowercornerstone/ LINKTREE https://linktr.ee/knowgrowshow *** REGISTER FOR "UNITED FOR GREATER THINGS" CONFERENCE | OCTOBER 17th 2026 https://greaterthings.ca   11 October 2026 | Growgroup Discussion Starters The One Story – Everyone & Everything At the Table| Acts 11:1-20 Growgroup Discussion Starters Know Christ as King K1: What dish has to be on your Thanksgiving table for it to feel like home? How does sharing a meal make people feel like they belong? Grow in Groups G1: God drops the sheet 3 times. Peter denied Jesus 3 times, Jesus restored him 3 times. Why did Peter need 3 goes? What was God trying to unlearn in him after 1400 years of food laws? G2: Read Lev 11:43-45. The list wasn't about health - it was about identity: "you're set apart." How does that help you understand Peter's "Surely not, Lord!"? Why does God use food to talk about people? G3: Read Mark 7:14-23. Verse 19 is in brackets - Mark's commentary, likely from Peter in hindsight. If Jesus already declared all foods clean, why is Acts 10-11 still such a shock for Peter? What's the difference between the metaphor and the literal truth? G4: Peter got criticized: "You ate with them" [11:3]. We do the same - we label people as the enemy, or decide for them: "They wouldn't be interested." Who tends to be in that category for you? Show Up and Serve S1: Dan said every seat at God's Thanksgiving feast has a name on it. Who is one person whose seat is empty that only you can invite? What's one simple step this week - a meal, a coffee, an invite - to bring them closer to the table?
