Last Week's Sermon
Be A Berean

Be A Berean

Real Life With A Real God

We've been working through the book of 1 John. It seems that as we launch into 1 John: 2:12 -17, John starts off by taking a pause. He's been challenging and admonishing the believers to probe their lives for what's real. Here he wants to reassure and remind in verses 12 to 14.

Reflect on this as you read it. I've read it over and over again.

Why would John repeat reminders of the faith to the three different categories of people? Why would he repeat all the categories twice? It seems to me that for John to do this twice means this is the pinnacle of what matters, the great reminder of what gives us hope, courage, and strength as we follow Jesus here on this earth.

Notice that he says, "I am writing this to you," and then he changes and says, "I have written to you."

John would have us know that there is a real life to be had with a real God.

 John then goes on to contrast how if we believe the lie of world that promises "real life" our true life with the Father will be lost. What this world has to offer, when placed outside of relationship with God, always comes up empty handed. Everything about this world and its short term promised satisfaction will pass away.

We can have real relationship with a real God. Let's not settle for the lesser things.

Looking forward to sharing with you on Sunday,
Jeremy

Grace Place

You will be excited to hear of the growth in services at Grace Place.

"Grace Place is extremely grateful for the announcement made on Thursday morning last week.

If you were in the area of Simpson St you would've seen since December 2025, construction has been underway at Grace Place. We received 1 million in funding to expand the Out of the Cold and Grace Place services. We added 1,800 square ft to our building and have increased our space for our overnight shelter and will offer 40 spaces. This construction has also expanded our Drop-In as well as having more room for our clients during our Community Meal at Grace Place Monday to Friday from 1:00pm - 4:00pm."
