Generosity | 2 Corinthians 8-9, Matthew 6:19-24
Is the church just after my money?Am I going to be guilted into giving?What does generosity even mean?
There can be a lot of confusion when it comes to the relationship between the church and finances. But what does scripture have to say about it? Jesus taught a lot about money and how we need to view it. And when we’re talking about generosity, that subject goes beyond simply what’s in our wallets. Join us this Sunday to explore more!

Prayer | Matthew 6:9-13
Prayer. Is it wishful thinking? Is there some magical formula? Is it silent meditation? Is it something we do when there’s something we want? And what happens when we don’t get it? How do we know if prayer is working?There’s so much we could say about prayer, so where do we start? Jesus’ disciples wondered the same thing, so much so that one day they said to Him “Lord, teach us to pray”. This Sunday, we’ll look at how Jesus responded to that request. Let’s explore together.

The Question | Mark 8:22-30
We’ve all faced various questions throughout our lives. When people want to know about us, they’ll ask: 
“What’s your name?” “How old are you?” “What do you do for work?”“What are your hobbies?”
When someone wants to know you in a more personal way, they’ll ask about your family, your ambitions, and your story. And likewise, when you want some important information, you’ll ask someone a number of questions to get it. 
We all hear and we all ask various questions, and those questions also vary in their significance. The question we’ve been looking at in our study of the Gospel of Mark is “Who is Jesus?”. This Sunday, we’ll see Jesus Himself ask it … and it’s the most significant question a person will face.

The Feeding of the 4000 (wait, haven’t we been here before?)Mark 8:1-21Sometimes, the stories in the gospels are confusing.  Why this story?  Why now?  And, wait a second, haven't I heard this one before?  The feeding of the 4000 is one such story.  Didn't we just hear about the feeding of the 5000? But familiarity with the first story doesn't mean we know what's happening with the second.  And the existence of a second story should make us question whether we really understood the first!  Thankfully, in the midst of this conundrum, the message remains a simple one:  Jesus is the way, the truth and the life!  
But that doesn't mean we can't try to answer the question of why a second feeding story shows up in Mark's Gospel!

Be Free | Mark 7:31-37
I don’t know if you know this, but there’s something wrong with you. There’s something wrong with me too. We’re all going to face our different points of “wrongness” and struggle with the challenges that brings. You might have failures, addictions, or physical ailments .. these are just a few examples of this what’s gone sideways with us. When we reflect on it, what we want is the removal of the wrong, the freedom from those chains. How will Jesus address that?
