Trip to South Africa
This is the January 20th 2008 reflection. The granddaughter of one of the members of the congregation went on a mission trip to South Africa in the summer of 2007 and came to tell us about it. I think it would be hard to listen to her and not be touched by how God manifested Himself during her...

The church is...
This is the November 18, 2007 reflection. Our church is in the midst of a health assessment to see where we stand and this reflection talked about what the church is. There is a section where the congregation speaks. They are saying: Here is the church; Here is the steeple; Open the door see all...

I'll believe that when I see it
Here we are back after a prolonged absence. This is the reflection from the November 4th church service. This reflection was given by a guest speaker as our minister was away on course. God Bless You!

Making Room in our Heart
This is the September 2nd 2007 reflection. This is a foretaste of the reflection series that will begin next week. The following Bible passage was a basis for this week's reflection: And then I heard a voice thunder from the Throne: "Look! Look! God has moved into the neighbourhood, making his…

What would happen if I gave our God full reign of my life?
The beginning of the reflection is missing a few seconds, but I do not think that it takes away from the reflection itself. This is our Minister's first week back from vacation and what she did during her vacation found its way into the reflection. I would like to think that it is a very powerful...

You have to walk the talk
In the August 19th, 2007 reflection, my older daughter spoke about how it is not enough to just talk about being a Christian, you have to live it. The reflection is full of funny anecdotes that help illustrate her point. This was my daughter's last week as pulpit supply as our Minister is…

What am I turning towards?
Last week, my daughter gave a reflection about the Faith story that was the turning point in her faith life. This week, the reflection concentrates on what it is she was turning towards. The beginning comment in the reflection is due to the fact that the Powerpoint presentation - which she put...

Faith Stories: Story of Ruth
This is the recording of the reflection given on August 5th. Our Minister is on vacation and so my older daughter is giving the reflection. The Story of Ruth is what she is speaking about. God Bless You!
-
Nothing can separate us from the love of God
This continues the series on Faith Stories, with the guest speaker reflecting on how God loves us and how nothing can separate us from His love. The verses he mentions are from Romans 8, and he is using the NIV Bible. God Bless You!
-
Prophet in your own town
This reflection is the first one of five that were given while our Minister was on vacation. This one is based on Mark 6:1-13 and features a long time member of the congregation. God Bless You!

Why wait?
This is the reflection that was given on July 15th, 2007. The song she refers to at the beginning of the reflection is "If there were no God" by Keith Lancaster which was sung by the Worship Team just before the reflection. Lyrics: http://cthibodeau.stikipad.com/singsong/show/IfThereWereNoGod I...

Our faith stories
This is the reflection from the July 8, 2007 service. This was the beginning of the summer series on Faith Stories. Our minister began with her favourite Bible passage: Romans 5:8-11. The version she quotes in the reflection is from "The Message". God Bless You!
-
Reflection for Canada Day
This is the reflection that was given on Canada Day (July 1st). The first minute of the reflection was lost due to incorrect settings on the soundboard, but I think it still works well. It is a comparison about citizenship in your home country (Canadian in our case, but you can replace it with…

Declaration of faith
This is the declaration of faith my older daughter did for her confirmation a couple of months back.
-
The gifts of the Spirit of God
Last Sunday was Pentecost, and the reflection was about how hard it can be to find the Spirit of God, and how it can be possible to let ourselves open up to the Spirit. I have listened to the reflection a couple of times now, and I think it is one you will want to listen to more than once. God...
-
Economy of God
Looks like I am a week late with this entry. This is the May 20th reflection that talked about the economy of God, the extravagant giving of God and what it means in and for our lives. And that extravagant giving is freely given. Listen to the podcast to find out more about it. BTW, there is dead...

Choosing to spend your time on love
This is the reflection that was given last Sunday on Mother's Day. There seems to be some of the beginning of the reflection missing, but having listened to it the message is still there. God Bless You!
-
Reflection on committment
This week's reflection touched upon how we can be frozen and unable to respond to Christ's call. But it is about letting Christ in and letting him work through us. God Bless You!
-
Foundation
In her return from her vacation, our minister spoke about about foundation. About foundation of faith, and also how this reflection would be a "foundation" for the serie of reflections in the weeks to come. A very interesting reflection. Do give it a listen. God Bless You!
-
We tend to be like dragons
This is the reflection from the April 22nd service at Esquimalt. You will have to listen to it to get the meaning of the title of this post. Once again, my older daughter stood in for our vacationing minister and I think she did well this time also. I am biased of course, but give it a listen, I...
-
God Is Love
Sorry about the lapse in posting. It was a combination of having technical difficulties with the recording as well as being away for a couple of weeks. This last Sunday's reflection was on the topic of "God is love". We had a replacement minister for last Sunday (and will also next Sunday) and…

Reflection during Lent
You may have noticed that there was no post last week. Our regular sound person was away and the person filling in was so engrossed in the service that the reflection was half-over before it was noticed that the recording had not started. This week is not as bad, but we are still missing a bit of...
-
Celebration of the life of the church
The service this week was part one of the Annual General Meeting, where we celebrated the events of the past year. The reflection is based on that celebration. It is well worth listening to in my opinion - of course why would I be putting it up if I did not think so? God Bless You! PS: I am not...
