As we approach the end of 2014 we take time to look back and remember:

On the 4 Sundays of Advent we have been reflecting on how each of the Evangelists (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) represent the 'big' story of the Bible - the story of God becoming Man in order to be our Saviour. Luke presents Jesus to us as the Son of Man who is, in fact, the Saviour of the World! We observe how Luke is a careful researcher and a skillful writer and how he pays attention to so much detail in order that Theophilus (1:1-4) and by us (the readers today) may know for sure that this seemingly unbelievable Story really is true and trustworthy! Jesus becomes truly Human and comes alongside of us in our brokenness and then becomes our Saviour by dying and rising from the dead! May we never lose the Wonder of the Story! Let us worship Him this Christmas Season.

Each year the season of Advent consists of 4 Sundays where we look more closely at the amazing story that sits at the center of the story of the Bible. This story is of such importance in the Bible that it is told not just from one perspective, but from four! Matthew, Mark, Luke and John each record their own versions of God breaking into human history by becoming one of us in the Person of Jesus. This year, we are privileged to look at this Big Story through the eyes of each of the storytellers. On November 30 we opened the series by looking at the story through the eyes of Matthew and noticed his emphasis on Jesus as the King who came in the line of David and was the fulfillment of the whole Old Testament story. This coming Sunday, December 7, we will look at how Mark presents Jesus from a more Roman perspective and shows him to be a Servant King - the one who comes 'not be be served, but to serve'.
We welcome you to join us as we worship together on these Advent Sundays! (Due to technical difficulties, the first 2 sermons are not uploaded in audio format). Here is an outline of our Sundays:
