    Rethinking Faith Conversations: Evangelism, Hospitality

    Rethinking Faith Conversations: Evangelism, Hospitality

    For some of you, this may be your first time hearing Greg, while others of us have known this God-graced communicator for a couple of decades. In a living room setting, Greg shares his understanding of biblical hospitality from his experience, study and, more importantly, how it plays out in real life.
    “Hospitality is the most often mentioned good work in the New Testament… in the middle of God's heart is a spirit of hospitality.”
    In this session, Greg offers some thoughts to ponder with open questions and mindful responses in a dialogue with those present.  In his transparent teaching style, Greg offers food to chew on – or, as he calls it – “a theory.”
    “I burn out at least once a year. I get depressed for a month or two, and I don't function very well …. burnout is not a theory for me. It's something that I've lived through over and over and over again because I'm a slow learner. Here's my theory….”

    Dr. Greg Mitchell is the Sr. Pastor of EN Vancouver, where he and his wife Debbie have raised three biological children and seven other children.  He contributes greatly to the EN Seminary with his passion for ‘Relational Theology’.

    An evening Online with Frank Naea - January 24, 2024

    You will fully enjoy this tour through the heart and journey of Frank Naea. “My journey in this whole revelation has been like going back to school again. If any man thinks they know something, they do not yet know as they ought to. This journey has not just been about learning something new; it has also been a journey of unlearning what I thought I knew. After 30 years of being in Youth With a Mission, youth pastoring and many other things I have done, you have a groove, a way of seeing and doing. I have realized I am still in process; Father is still fathering me in some places I did not know I needed fathering!”
    Franks opens up about this unlearning and relearning - it will open your heart more for your own adventure with grace, faith and Father.

    Grace, Faith, and Adventure: Reimagining Spirituality with Helene King

    Grace, Faith, and Adventure: Reimagining Spirituality with Helene King

    When Helene speaks, it's as if history itself settles in for a chat. This remarkable nonagenarian, a mother many times over and a friend to the world, unpacks a treasure trove of experiences that promise to enrich and inspire. Her tales whisk you from the storied streets of Edinburgh to the natural splendor of Vancouver, and further still, to the welcoming shores of New Zealand. With every word, she weaves the essence of grace, faith, and the pure exhilaration of adventure through the generations she's touched. The wisdom of her years blossoms into an innovative approach to spirituality, resonating profoundly with the youth and reimagining church for the contemporary seeker.

    As we turn our gaze inward, the episode becomes a canvas for reimagining the Christian walk. It's a pilgrimage from the rigidity of religious structures to the transformative embrace of Christ's teachings, where the sacred is found in stillness and the gift of the present moment. We delve into the legacy of grace as the bedrock of existence, as Helene's voice urges us to see ourselves as part of a divine lineage, living in the now with hearts wide open to grace. And as we reflect on the eagle's biblical metaphor of soaring resilience, we are reminded of our own capacity for spiritual renewal. Helene's parting wisdom – to balance life's beauty with its trials – is a poignant reminder that it is within community and mutual upliftment that we truly find our wings.

It aways brings encouragement to those within earshot.
    Recently Helene spent an evening with an intimate group of friends in a cozy living room where she shared about what she called, “darkness and light”. We were very fortunate to discover afterwards that someone had captured her sharing that evening.

    Enjoy the gift of Helene as she illuminates the journey from darkness to light, from slavery to freedom, in this message. Helene’s reflective odyssey draws inspiration from timeless wisdom and personal experience that invites us all into the transformative journey.
