The Apostle Paul opens his first letter to the Corinthians with an introduction to the Corinth. But more than just introducing himself as the author, Paul lays a foundation for the rest of the letter. He is setting the terms of the discussion around his authority, unity in Christ, why we need to address issues of morality, pride and spiritual gifts, judgement and resurrection, and our fellowship with God.

Identity comes before purpose. This means that knowing who you are will help you understand what you are to do. In the opening verses of 1 Corinthians, the Apostle Paul reminds the Corinthians who they are, before reminding them of what they are to do.

There is a lot to fear out there and God certainly commands us to not fear. Yet He also asks us to ‘fear’ Him at the same time. How do we remedy that contradiction??? Pastor Robin addresses the confusion and also shares about how the fear of the LORD is actually of great value to us as we enter into a New Year.

It’s natural to have doubts about faith in God. When we do it’s important that we challenge and test both our faith and doubts. For in examining the evidence, our faith will only be strengthened. In this message, Pastor Ross examines the Messianic prophecies from the Old Testament and sees if they match the life of Jesus by asking the following important questions. Who is the Messiah? What will the Messiah do? When will the Messiah come? Where will the Messiah come from? Why did the Messiah need to come? And how did He fulfill His mission?

What we think about God will have the biggest impact on how we live as Christians. Who we think God is will be the product of a variety of sources, but they are always insufficient in some way. God revealed Himself in the Old Testament through His prophets, until He sent His Son, Jesus, in order that we might discover who He really is.

Waiting on God is one of the most difficult things that we are called to do. In Luke 2, we meet Simeon and Anna who had to wait their entire lives for the arrival of their Messiah. Pastor Ross recounts their story and helps us discover why and how we are to wait for us to see the work that God is doing in our lives.

The Tower of Babel in Genesis 11 was not just the start of the many languages of the world, it was also where God divided the world into nations, to be ruled by various angels, also known as Watchers. This began the time when God would work through one nation, Israel, that was to be a priestly nation to the world. But through the work of the cross and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the Church on the day of Pentecost in Acts 2, God has ended the division. Nation, race, culture no longer matters, for all can come to be part of God’s people.

God has called us to be truth-tellers in a world of lies, and that is not always received well. The truth is often met with resistance, anger, and sometimes even retaliation. So what do we do? In Mark's gospel, we read the story of the unjust murder of John the Baptist—killed precisely because he was a truth-teller. Yet we don’t see God leaping into action to avenge him. Where is the justice? Today Pastor Robin explores the grim reality of God’s justice compared to our human understanding of justice. And yet, in that contrast, we discover the surprising freedom that comes from choosing God’s justice instead of our own.

The Tower of Babel account is a demonstration of the power of unity, as well as the destructive power of disunity. And that matters for the church today, as we are called to protect our unity in Christ - where our diversity combined with that unity will be directed towards the same common goal - to glorify God.

The name 'Nimrod' has gone under a change in meaning over the years. The original Nimrod was a great hunter who wanted to build his own kingdom. But his name has been humbled by God since he invested in the wrong kingdom, his own, instead of the kingdom of God. The question for us today, is are being a Nimrod in our own lives today?

Jesus promises us peace, joy, security, freedom, and love… so why do we so rarely experience those things in our day to day life? Romans chapter 5 and verse 17 holds the key. In this sermon, learn how “reigning in life” doesn’t look like what we assume it does. Even better, discover how the things God offers us are much more than we could ask or imagine… and we have the freedom to say YES and accept them.

While we wait for the return of Christ we live in a time of in between. Christ has come to make us new creations, so that He can dwell in us today. And He has promised to return one day soon. But in the meantime, it can be a mean time. Yet we can live in peace as we live from the promises of the great Promise Keeper.

In this message from Genesis 9, Pastor Ross Gilbert shows how sin survived the flood and still wars within us today.

In John chapter 8, verses 31-59, Jesus confronts the Jewish people about their status with God by judging their relationship with God as merely association and an intimate relationship. Because of the cross, Christians have been purchased for an intimate relationship with God but do we access it? Because when we press into an intimate relationship with God - we are behaving in the way we were designed to be. You are discovering your true self. Pastor Robin highlights three questions in this narrative that help us discern association over intimacy if we’re honest with ourselves in answering.

The flood in Genesis was a global judgement on all of creation. The sons of God, the Nephilim, humanity, and even the animals all faced judgement. But the grace of God is displayed through the judgement in the person of Noah.

The story of the Watchers and their divine rebellion that is told in Genesis 6 as well in ancient texts such as the book of 1 Enoch, is not just a story of myth or history. Like Genesis 3, it is a story of rebellion and the resulting destruction to God's creation. And like Genesis 3, the resulting destruction is still felt today as the impact of the Watchers continue to shape and push a culture of death and destruction.

God invites us to enter into the finished work of the cross. That includes resting from striving to fix or improve ourselves, and instead learning to live from who God has already made us.

John chapter 8, verses 1-11 is one of the most popular passages in the Bible. It is easily one of the best looks at the character of Jesus. Pastor Robin opens up the passage to show how our union with Christ is the safest place in the world to be.
