Alife For Life....

I am glad to see this. It ensures that Alfredsson will not only finish his career in Ottawa, but will undoubtedly be the last one in the Senators organization to wear #11. For a newer franchise, it is nice to see some tradition being established. Go Sens Go.

How Do I Multiply My Group?...

I have had the same people in my small group for years. I want to grow and include others but some people in the group don’t want that… they like it just the way it is. What should I do? God is a God of multiplication. Those who have been with me since the beginning of this incredible Lifegroup...

Love & Hell – Part 3...

I have come across some definitions of hell, but none that seem to be both theologically sound and practically understood as Timothy Keller’s articulation that hell is the trajectory of a soul, living a self-absorbed, self-centered life, going on and on forever. Part of the problem with the “how...

I Am So Lonely...

As a single Christian I am so lonely. All my friends have their husbands to talk to and II feel like I have no one to talk to about my faith or anything else for that matter. The first thing I want to you do is to train yourself not to compare where you are at to others. Don't look at people who...

Love & Hell – Part 2...

How can a loving God send people to hell is a polarizing question, especially within the church. One of the things I have found is that it is essential to identify on which side of the equation you naturally drift towards. Here are the two that I have seen most often. The Offended Observer We are so...

Love & Hell – Part 1...

Yesterday at Lifecentre we discussed a big elephant in the church. We did our best to answer the question, “how can a loving God send people to hell?” I don’t do this often, but you can listen to the audio here or watch it here (video should be up by Tuesday am). Be prepared, this talk isn’t...

I Am Dependent on Food...

I found your blog online and I was wondering if you could give me some more information on your fast that set you free from food addiction. I am not severely over weight, most would say I’ve a normal build and few extra pounds, but I know that my attitude to food is unhealthy. I know that this is...

Expelled....

After I tucked the boys into bed last  night, I watched the documentary by Ben Stein called Expelled. What I expected to see, and what the movie was about was a beautiful transition. It was an important film for me to absorb. No matter where you fall on either side of the evolution or intelligent...

I Can’t Get Over My Past...

I can’t seem to get over the pain of my past. I feel like my past is a burden to me. You have a powerful story and somewhere along the way you believed a lie that you have to pay for the sins of your past. The shame that you carry for the "bad" things you have done and the burden of the...

The Super Mario Family...

This was posted by accident in September but I really wanted to post it now… So I decided to post it again… This year our Fall Festival theme is Jesus is my Super Hero. So all the kids get to come dressed in their favorite super hero costumes. The boys decided that we would go as the Super...
