New life church is located in the Kootenays! Our mission is to bring people in to believe, build people up to belong, and send people out to serve in the community and around the world!
Where do you find your security? It's easy to think that what we accumulate in life offers us security. The money we have, the cars we drive, and the status that comes with it. But true security comes from our relationship with Jesus. Knowing that whatever we gain or lose in life, we always have Jesus.
The book of James says there is a way to get wisdom and a way not get it. If we're honest, we don't want to be known as lacking wisdom. But, truth be told, that happens, sometimes it's lacking. So whats the solution? Find out as we continue our sermon series "The Road To Maturity".
The boy of James speaks to us on how to deal with "trials". What are we to do in the face of difficulty? Can there be any good in those hard times?
Join us as guest speaker Rob Scott delivers the message out of Ephesians 1.
A presentation of sanctification , the moment to moment of being a Christian.
The resurrection of Jesus is the focal point of Christian belief. Because of Christ resurrection we can have the assurance that we too can have life after death. What does it mean, how should it impact our lives. Join us in celebrating the resurrection this Easter Sunday.
What does Jesus' sacrifice on the cross mean for us? How are we able to describe this event as good when to the locals of the day it would have been dreadful?
It's Palm Sunday! The King is here! As Israel celebrates the arrival of Jesus they hope that he will set them free from their Roman oppressors. However, Jesus has come to set them free from a deeper evil. An evil we all share in common.
Ever wonder what your calling is? We all have! Sometimes, we think the simplicity of our calling can trip us up. Boaz in the book of Ruth had a calling, it may have seemed small to him, but the mundane of our life in God's hands is used for Hid divine purpose.
Ruth chapter 3 is where we will be studying today! Namoi mentors Ruth to follow israelite custom and makes a move on Boaz. In the hope that her family will be redeemed. Join us as we continue our sermon series "Divinely Mundane".
God is the conductor of the book of Ruth. For Ruth and Naomi, it looks like they are being lead unknowingly. God is always working and in control. Even when we can't see or feel Him. Join us as we continue on in our series "Divinely Mundane".
Join us as we begin our new sermon series "Divinely Mundane"! God is active in the mundane details; He is present in the ordinary, everyday moments. His redemptive plan is far greater than we can comprehend, and it is incredible to witness how He accomplishes His purposes, sometimes even using ordinary individuals like us. In Ruth Chapter 1, we have the opportunity to observe this firsthand in the lives of Naomi and her daughter-in-law, Ruth.
God looks at the heart, He cares more about the internal state of a person than what they look like on the outside. This is also the case for church. We don't want to simply look like church, but rather BE the church.
**TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES ROBBED THE FIRST FEW MINUTES OF SERMON, APOLOGIES!**This message explores the contrast between the Spiritual practice of fasting and the dangers of indulgence. It emphasizes that fasting draws believers closer to God by teaching self-control and reliance on Him - while indulgence often leads to excess, spiritual complacency and separation from God.
What does the Bible say about giving? And how does giving protect us against idolatry? Join us as we tackle the topic of money in the Bible in our current sermon series, Basic Tools vs Big Idols.
Serving is a weapon against the idol of self or, as we could call it in our culture, Selfishness. When we elevate ourselves to a place of worship, we make an idol out of ourselves. Our worship is giving in to our every want and need. God has given us the tool of Serving to combat this idol in our lives. When we serve others, like Jesus' example, we move the idol of self off the pedestal and keep God in his rightful place. Serving others is equal to serving God. He says what you've done for the least of these, you have also done for me. No one can live your faith for you. Serving is a basic tool God has given us to combat this big idol, Selfishness.
Join us as we have guest speaker, Rob Scott, continue our current sermon series "Basic Tools vs Big Idols".
Does God know what's best for you? Or do you know what's best for yourself? The Bible tells us to follow God and trust Him, but do we trust ourselves? Find out as we continue our new series "Basic Tools vs Big Idols".
Having God 1st in our lives doesn't come easy, but its the most important decision of our lives. The things we place above God are idols. So what does it look like for something to be first? Why does God want it to be him in that place. Join us as we start our new sermon series: Basic Tools, Big Idols.
Join us as we hear from our guest speaker and missionary Peter Koteles.
today we are wrapping up our sermon series! As we study the last passage of the book of Philippians, let's reflect on how we can become more like Jesus every day!
Welcome to our first-ever online Year-end service. We want to take some time to celebrate and be thankful for the changes that God has brought us through this year as a church and spend some time learning about how God is present with us on this journey we call Life.
It's conflict time in Philippi! Euodia and Syntyche aren't on the best terms, we don't know why. Somewhere in the mix someone was feeling anxious or worried. A thing most of can are able to relate to. Paul (writer of Philippians) would rather see them resolve and act out of a place of peace rather than anxiety. Because our citizenship is in heaven, not earth. Does the bible really have answers and a path of peace for every situation?
Many false teachers preach that salvation is not secured just through faith in Jesus but in works. But, we are not justified by works but through faith in Jesus Christ. Join us as we continue our sermon series: Citizens of Heaven!
As we continue our sermon series "Citizens of Heaven", we learn about the path that Jesus created for us to walk on, a life to model our after. So day in and day out, how do we do that? How do we know if were hitting or missing the mark?
Join us as Pastor Rob speaks on Philippians chapter 1. "To Live is Christ, to die is gain."
In our new series "Citizens of Heaven", we see how Paul challenges the Philippians to place their identity in Jesus above all else in the middle of social pressure and persecution. As well answers the questions of how Christians should behave in the good and the bad times.
As the body of Christ, do we truly value unity? The impact of division is clear both in the church and in the world around us. Unity matters greatly, and there are significant repercussions when we become divided. How can we, a diverse group of individuals, achieve the unity that God desires?
How do you know when it's God's voice saying stuff and when it'd not? God is a Father who speaks to His children, even TODAY! There's a way to miss His message and a way to listen. It's a skill we can all grow in.
Join us as we hear Pastor James' farewell sermon where he gives us some amazing insight as to why it's important to trust in God through all things. James and Maria will surely be missed as they step into retirement.
God always has BIG plans. yet, He's a BIG God - so it makes sense. How can we know His plans and how do we know if we're called to them?
God wants all of us, not just part of us. Timothy Keller says, "when we are confronted with the true Gospel, with the real Jesus, you should not be shocked that it demands more then you thought and offer more than you thought." Greed and envy are often the reason that we see so much need in our world. We need to be willing to surrender everything for Jesus including our earthly dreams.
Join us as Pastor James walks us through some pretty interesting facts interwoven with how an analogy of space can reflect confident faith.
God sees us and who we actually are. He has put things in us from day one and has been developing His will for our lives for HIS purpose.
What does Jesus want form us? Is the Christian life all about having a "to-do-list"? What does it mean to be at Jesus' feet?
We have the ability to see beyond our physical circumstances. How can we maintain joy during the struggles of life?
We need to not just have knowledge but wisdom in order to understand what is good, but where does wisdom come from and how do we put it into practice? We will explore what true wisdom is and what it's purpose is: to bring people to repentance. Repentance comes from God's kindness but that doesn't mean it is absent of absolute truth.
We are made for relationships! It's an important part of being human. What happens when our relationship with God is broken?
Join us as we have guest speaker Rob Scott bring us the word!
We must seek the goodness of God and not the favour of man. When we get these backwards we can unintentionally partner with evil. When we seek to do good, the favour of our Lord will come. But let us explore what God says is good!
There's a lot of different voices, opinions, leaders, preaching styles, etc. But, who does the church follow?
