The Hallmarks of God’s Love
by Will Powell Introduction What do you think of when someone says, “Well, that’s his hallmark?” We use this expression to describe the most striking characteristic of a person—or of what they do. For example, “That had the hallmark of a world champion.” But word “hallmark” has its origins in identifying objects—particularly made of gold or silver—and whether they really were genuine. From AD 350 until today, hallmarks are used to stamp or laser inscribe these metals to indicate their purity. It
Hopeless Without God
For most of us hope means “I hope so,” or “It would be nice if,” or “I don’t really know, but I’m hoping, maybe

What Do You Want from Me, Lord?
By Mike Page, Guest Preacher There’s nothing like having to prepare a sermon to get procrastination work done in the garden. Yesterday I managed to turn the compost heap and shredded a pile of branches from the winter. So thank you. And thank you for the opportunity to share this message with you. There’s a great honour that you bestow on someone when you say to them “we want to hear what you have to say about God.” Either that or you were desperate. The
Resurrection: The Key to Understanding Life

By the evening of Good Friday, that glorious promise and hope had become just one more illusion and disappointment, another mirage in the desert. But the astonishing, extreme event of

Christ’s Authority to Heal
As Christians, we are personally aware of, and have heard accounts of, healing by supernatural means. This has always been a part of the Good News we experience and share with others. We celebrate the reality of this event in our churches in various ways—prayer meetings, healing services, and special worship times. Jesus tells us, “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed…,” and when facing an addiction, chronic disability, or life-threatening illness, we often

An Unusual Invitation—Debunking Christmas…
…Finding the True Story Amidst All the Religious Fluff by Philipp Meinecke It’s Christmas season and, depending on your family’s traditions, you are probably in the midst of preparing for December 24 or 25 respectively. Cookies have been baked, the house has been decorated, candles have replaced regular LED lighting throughout the house, family pictures have been taken, ugly sweater contests have been won, and the debate on whether or not you should buy a “real” tree this year has probably also
