The Target | The thought of sharing the gospel to those around us fills many Christians with fear. What will they say? What will they think? What will they do in response to my words? Our response is often to not say anything at all. Acts 16 is an encouragement to us all that God is in control all he expects from us is to obedient to the last thing He said to us and respond to opportunities along the way. | 5/20/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Gospel Minded - South [audio] | Acts 15 describes a discussion between the apostles and the Christians who were strict Pharisees before coming to Jesus. It’s performance vs. grace. Religion vs. Grace. It would appear that the majority of western Christianity is still “religion minded” rather than “gospel minded”. Which side are we on? | 5/13/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

View from the Couch [audio] | Jesus started His mission by saying “Come follow...” and ended it by saying “Now go...”. The three years in between were spent showing us how life is meant to be lived. Paul and the apostles in Acts 14 are living this kind of life out. Taking risks, facing opposition – all for Jesus. How about us? How do we live life? Are we cursed with convenience or off the couch living life the way Christ intended? | 5/6/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Twisted Lid [audio] | In his first recorded sermon Paul points out David stating that he had “served the purposes of God in his generation”. How do we serve the purpose of God in our generation? What does that kind of life look like? And, what does it have to do with twisted lids?! | 4/29/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Seek and Save [audio] | We serve a God who, throughout the history of a fallen race, has, by His own initiative, reached out. He has made contact, poured out blessing, provided salvation and brought life from death. ALL when we had no power to get it for ourselves.

The Basis of our Faith [audio] | The message of the Gospel involves the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. His life and even His death could perhaps be explained away as that of a powerful teacher but misguided leader. It is the resurrection of Jesus that provided living proof that He was who He said He was, and it is His victory over death and the grave that allows us to walk in victory and Newness of life. Hebrews 11:1 'Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the evidence or conviction of things unseen' - this assurance rests in the fact that we serve a Risen Lord. | 4/8/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Persecution and Hope [audio] | Up to this point the church is on a bit of a hot streak, enjoying the grace of God as they grow in numbers and seeing the gospel transform the lives of many. In Acts 12, we see persecution of the church begin to rise up. Where is our hope in the face of persecution? How does the gospel bring hope to the church past and present when it appears the enemy has the upper hand? | 3/24/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

A Revolutionary Beginning [audio] | In this passage, we witness how God first spreads the gospel to the Gentile world. This new mission movement is unprecedented! More importantly, it is revolutionary and it provides the ground rules on how to do church, even today. | 3/18/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Jesus + Anything = Ruins Everything [audio] | Virtually every sermon today is preached on the assumption that you can eventually be a successful Christian if you just try hard enough. "Try harder to be like Christ". "Work at it, and you'll be like him." "Study your Bible, obey it and you'll be like Jesus." "Admire Christ more and you'll be more like him." So we are told. Its not uncommon to hear churches and Christian groups say, "We're just trying to be like Jesus." The message is: "Imitate Jesus and you'll be just like him." This is NOT the Gospel. | 3/17/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

One chance [audio] | Peter is facing some harsh criticism for what God has chosen to do in lives of the Gentiles. He responds lovingly by recounting the events and reminding them that salvation is a gift from God. How do we respond to this gift? Life is very short and so it is important we consider this gift as the most precious thing we possess. | 3/10/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Another Man's Treasure [audio] | Peter had just had a revolutionary vision about mixing with people he had once considered outsiders. As a result, he was faced with the challenge of carving out new territory for the gospel by extending hospitality to non-Jews. The life and work of Jesus had lead him to view a people he once considered trash as treasure. What areas of your life could use a new perspective? What have you called trash that the Lord wants to call treasure? | 3/4/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Belief Shaker [audio] | God loves to bring change and He does so in unexpected ways. There is an ‘ideal’ that He wants for us and we need to have our belief systems shaken in order for us to align with His best for us. Looking at Peter as an example how does God bring change? What is His ideal and how does He use the gospel to shape us? | 3/3/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Plot [audio] | Jesus loves to change the plot of our lives. Many times through history Jesus has changed the story of our lives for the better. He is the central character and director of the “kingdom story”. This week, through studying the story of Ananias we see how we are also main characters who He loves to use to bring about His purposes and plot changes. | 2/26/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Pinch [audio] | Part 2 of our ‘Elephant in the Room’ series is all about the ‘nitty gritty’ of God’s expectations on us in relation to our finances. We address questions like: “Should I give 10% like it says in the Old Testament?” “Should I give from my gross or net?” “My spouse is not a Christian what should I give?” “I’m in debt, shouldn’t I deal with that first?” “What do I give if I can’t afford it?” “Why should I give to the church?" | 2/12/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Heart Condition [audio] | An ‘Elephant in the Room’ for churches is the issue of finances. 25% of Jesus' teaching is on matters relating to money and yet we do not give it the same emphasis in church (we do in life though!). What is God’s heart when it comes to finances? What is money and wealth for? How is it an indicator of our heart condition? How does having the correct view of money bring freedom in all of life? | 2/5/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Our days [audio] | The story of Noah is a great Old Testament picture of what God expects from His Ecclesia (Church) today.

Trained [audio] | Jesus stood before the actual "Gates of Hades" in Caesarea Philippi and declared that nothing would prevail against His Church. How do we move to be a prevailing, victorious and potent Church, spreading the good news of Jesus Christ? One step is to recognize that we all need to be 'trained in righteousness".

Supernatural Surge [audio] | As the Holy Spirit is poured out on the infant Church, we see the powerful effect it has on that community and the Apostles. In the face of emerging opposition, they show incredible courage and boldness, which is rooted in a deep sense of the call and commission of God on their lives.

Liberty [audio] | The apostles view was that when good things happened - great! When bad things happened - even better - because it was an opportunity to show others the transformation that was happening in their hearts. The disciples were all about obedience at any cost, and they lived that as they submitted to the authority of the Sanhedrin.

Each of us has been created by God to play an important role within the story of narratives (emphasis on plural) that are uniquely occurring for all of us each day. Rather than quarreling about whose story is correct, we ought to examine our response to Jesus’ call to love and care for the world. | 10/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Hyper Real Christianity [audio] | We live in what philosophers call a 'hyper real' society where truth is embellished and we end up chasing after ideals that are simply not true and are unattainable. It's a "I will only be happy when..." culture. In Galatians 3 Paul is addressing a group of Christians that have wandered away from The Truth. The gospel had been 'embellished' by some false teachers and the Galatians had been 'bewitched' into believing it. They had started well and were ending badly, using their own power to see change in their lives.

What responsibilities do we have in our own communities, neighbourhoods and workplaces? How do we continue in the freedom of the gospel? | 2/26/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Paul knew what it was to be "sent out" with authority & power that can only come from God, and not from any man-made institution. In verses 3-5 we learn that the very nature of salvation is peace and reconciliation. Peace with God, peace with each other, an peace within ourselves. | 2/6/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Fight [audio] | We are all in a battle! We are constantly bombarded with messages from the world trying to gain our attention and trying to 'win' us over. As Christians, it is vital that we fight this 'pull' - but how? In James 4, the straight talking brother of Jesus makes the call to fight by describing the battle and giving two clear (but profound) instructions. | 1/16/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Battle Within [audio] | This series we are bringing attention to the battle that we all live in - it's a spiritual struggle that we often forget about, but it is critical. In Luke chapter 4 we see Jesus Himself led by the Holy Spirit into a time where He faced temptation by Satan. The enemy tempted Jesus in three areas: he questioned Jesus identity, he offered Jesus worldly power & status, and he tested Jesus' trust in God. Each one of us are faced with the same three struggles. We are wise to be aware of them - face them quickly, with humility - and to rest in the complete forgiveness, protection and victory we have in Jesus Christ. | 1/9/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Christmas Spirit [audio] | The tradition of Santa Claus goes back to Nicholas, Bishop of Myra, Turkey in the fourth century. Little is known about his life except that he entrusted his life to Jesus at an early age, and that after his parents died he gave all of his inheritance to the poor. While serving as Bishop he learned of three young girls who were going to be sold into slavery by their father. Deeply moved, St. Nick used the church’s wealth to buy the young girls’ freedom. Today we describe sacrificial gifts that cost us deeply as showing the true Christmas Spirit. This we see in the story of Old St. Nick, but remember that Bishop Nicholas was moved first by the true Spirit of Christmas, Jesus of Nazareth. | 12/24/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Chain Reaction [audio] | Chains I find deeply interesting. Maybe it’s because my hometown back in Britain has a world famous reputation for chain making. Our most famous chain ever created, within three miles of my home and in fact one of the largest chains ever created in the history of the area, was the chain and anchor for the S.S. Titanic. And as far as I understand, that well crafted chain is still at the bottom of the north Atlantic ocean. This Sunday we will be exploring the theme of chains. Paul was in chains in prison and yet somehow, through his confinement, God was able to work far beyond, encouraging believers, impacting lives and bringing the reality of the Messiah to the Praetorian guard. So physically Paul was bound but spiritually God was able to take his situation and create an infused chain reaction throughout the small church communities of Europe. Our continuing prayer for Willow Park Church is that God will create a spiritual chain reaction throughout our region. | 10/17/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Night after night people discovered the true meaning of life and chose to follow Jesus. But, the big news in the UK was the launch of the X-Factor, and out of the many thousands of applicants who dream of becoming an international rock star and recording artist, only one will be left remaining. Status, ambition, drive and of course talent will be the buzz words of the show. Whether it is X- Factor, Canadian Idol or America's Got Talent, so many are seeking instant status and fame. As indeed the disciples in today’s passage did. Jesus spoke about the power of servanthood, the willingness to become as a child, and the call to lay down our lives for Him. Not an easy message in the 21st century, but one that can radically change our lives. | 9/4/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Perhaps even today, there is no more significant question for Christians to be able to answer for themselves than this. Who do you say that Jesus is? And does your life demonstrate your answer? Everything that has happened up to this point in Mark has been in anticipation of Peter's confession that follows - "You are the Christ" and everything that happens after it can be seen as Jesus fulfilling the role of the Christ - the Jewish Messiah. But what did it mean for Jesus to be called Christ?

The disciples have been on a preaching tour themselves, the death of John the Baptist has been announced and the crowds keep coming to see Jesus.You can feel the emotion of all that is taking place in the chapter; exhausted disciples, fear of Herod's anger and then grief. These are credible reasons why they should not engage with the crowd who follow Jesus, but Jesus is deeply moved by them and wants to speak and teach. It is out of His love for the crowd that He continues to minister and work, it is out of concern that He not only meets their spiritual needs but demonstrates His ability to to take a little and turn it into much - all flowing out of a heart of love.

A Rough Day at Sea [audio] | That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, "Let us go over to the other side." Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him. A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?" He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?" They were terrified and asked each other, "Who is this?

The first is that as followers of Jesus we are all bi-vocational people - being a student, a homemaker, a parent, a carpenter or an accountant is just one part of our bi-vocational calling. We have also been called by Jesus to be farmers; farmers do a wide variety of things, but one thing that most of them do is plant seeds. As farmers for Jesus, we have been called to plant seeds, wherever we are, about the good news of God's in-breaking Kingdom. Secondly, this parable is a challenge for us to examine our own heart. Jesus loves us more than we could ever imagine and, like a good cardiologist, He is concerned about the condition of our heart. He desires in us, a heart that is open to His word, responsive to it and producing fruit. Key Passage: Mark 4:1-20 | 7/17/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Affluenza [audio] | There are a number of reasons why many of us like to give; one of those reasons is that being generous has a good feeling attached to it. Some people will tell you that generosity is addicting. Yet for some, having a generous spirit is difficult because we fear that if we give away too much then we will not have enough to provide for our families. The other challenge to our generosity is keeping up with the Jones'. We live in a culture which has a strong focus on the accumulation of "stuff" which means that the more I give away, the less stuff I can have. Jesus, in the gospels, challenges us that it's not about raising our standard of living but about raising our standard of giving. A life of generosity is a life well lived because God is honored when we are generous. | 6/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Time [audio] | We live such fast paced lives, but where are we going? Are our values (the things that really matter to us) reflected in the way we spend our time? Where does God fit in on our list of priorities? The truth is, that time invested with God always satisfies, always refreshes, always produces results. So what's all the hurry about? We should not move faster than the God who is leading us. | 6/13/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Incubator [audio] | If perseverance is needed to successfully finish a marathon, then could it be that perseverance is one of those qualities that we need more of to successfully live life? As an incubator stimulates formation and development in the young, similarly persevering through the trials and difficulties of life allows some of the greatest works of transformation to take place in our life. Persevering through trials is often the doorway to some of our greatest joys. Key Passage: James 1:2 - 4:12 | 5/22/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Listen [audio] | "God intends the disciplines of the spiritual life to be for ordinary human beings; people who have jobs, who care for children, who must wash dishes and mow lawns. In fact, the disciplines are best exercised in the midst of our normal activities. If they are to have a transforming effect, the effect must be found in the ordinary junctures of human life." - Richard Foster, Celebration of Discipline | 5/9/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

| 284 | VideoTunnel Vision [video] | In the parable that we are looking at today we read about a man who experienced tunnel vision - his focus was on what was owed to him rather than the debt he had been forgiven. Because of this he refused to offer the same leniency to his friend, and the result was that it cost him his life. As we walk in the way of Jesus we are called to be a people who extend forgiveness fully and freely to those who have hurt us. Key Passage: Matthew 18:21-35 | 5/2/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Belong [audio] | Maybe it was when I went to pay hydro bill and told the lady that it really doesn't matter what I pay because I can't take light bulbs to heaven - and she cut off our power.

Walk This Way [audio] | So coming to church and having someone else tell you to "Walk This Way" might not come off so well. I get it. But what I also get, is that it just isn't anyone telling you to, it's the Master Servant. It's the one who came down off his throne, put his crown aside, put on a pair of sandals and showed you and I exactly how to walk. The most incredible part of this deal, is that the choice is up to you. Which way are you going to walk? | 4/17/10 | Free | View In iTunes |
