Eucharist Church (Updated 2018 Podcast)

Last week we looked at the Confession that anchors us in eternity. This week we shift back to the edges, exploring how the living God meets each of us exactly where we are and draws us towards Him. As we are drawn in, we are afforded opportunities to question and refine the Convictions of our own unique experience.Preached by Kevin Makins and Nina Schuurman-Drenth on May 25 2025, in the Eucharist Church Sanctuary.

The Good Life in Babylon concludes on the other end of the Biblical cannon: The Book of Revelation, like the Book of Genesis, offers us a peek behind the curtain at the patterns that shape reality. This time we spot the inevitable end of the city, and it's rebirth due to Christ's faithfulness. It's a hopeful, terrifying ending to the greatest and grandest story in history.

Eucharist Church (Updated 2018 Podcast)

Once again we're in podcast land. The sermon live recordings aren't working, but it's probably better this way. Two sermons: One is live, if you catch it you catch it, and one is here, at your convenience. Lord Willing, both words will accomplish what they are meant to accomplish. So for this week, our second "podcast exclusive," we look at the story of Exodus in light of our sermon series The Good Life in Babylon. This week: How to Leave a City Preached by Kevin Makins in the Eucharist Sanctuary, September 30 2024.

Eucharist Church (Updated 2018 Podcast)

This Sunday our podcast recording failed (which was so thematically fitting) and so we've had to once again fling this sermon into the heavens, with the hope it will be caught by a high place and sent back down towards the earth where you can listen to it, on your device, whenever it is convenient to you. All that to say, this week we're exploring the Tower of Babel, a story that reveals much to us about the shape of a city, the power that comes with height, and the cost of that power. Hopefully it will offer you a helpful framework for discerning our own times. Preached by Kevin Makins in the Eucharist Sanctuary, September 25 2024.

I first heard of Kevin Makins through my friend Rielly McLaren. He told me about his college friend that was planting a cool church in Hamilton. I next heard of Kevin as a guest on New Leaf Network podcast where he talked about his ‘Holy Shift’ tour, as he and some of his friends cycled to bars to do stand-up comedy, have conversations about Jesus and have one of his friends perform music on a bicycle. I was not surprised when we first met at Eucharist Church and he showed up on a one-wheel motorized skateboard.So when the opportunity to read his book and interview him for my podcast came up, I knew that this would be time well spent. So, let me share my thoughts on Kevin and his book ‘Why Would Anyone Go To Church?’First of all, there was no stalling out as I read through 150,000 words. You know how you can get bogged down finishing a read? You keep reading because you hope that something profound or insightful is coming and when it does not, you stick a marker in the page and say, “I’ll come back to it.” This was one of the gems that I could not put down. I did not find my mind wandering to other things or set it aside for a nap.Secondly, Kevin is a brilliant communicator with a mix of bratty wit and humble confession of his weakness and mistakes. Now, stir in some deeply profound theological reflection and you have a book that gives great insight into a millennial leader that believes in Jesus and the Church he is building.My third observation is that Kevin is as sincere as he is experimental in hacking liturgy to find relevance and meaning for the urban neighbours he cares deeply for. Anything edgy that Kevin does is deeply rooted in a theological sweet spot. Ten years ago he planted Eucharist Church in downtown Hamilton and the book chronicles how a 23-year-old wrestled through the dynamic tensions of his Lutheran (Missouri Synod) childhood, youth group conversion and choice to become church in one of Hamilton’s toughest neighbourhoods.Possibly I was riveted to his story because of my own youthful church planting experience and the reckless sincerity that took me there in the first place.Finally, the book asks a really great question and draws the reader into the possibility that being part of Jesus’ church may be exactly what our world is missing."Book has been provided courtesy of Graf-Martin Communications and Baker Books in exchange for an honest review.

This week, Kevin Makins joins the conversation to ask the question... why would anyone go to church? When Kevin was 23 and didn't know any better, he founded Eucharist Church with some of his friends.    There are plenty of reasons to criticize, judge, and even walk away from the church. Many of us have been hurt and rejected. We may see church as insular and irrelevant. Despite this, Kevin Makins believes that the church still matters--perhaps more than ever.   If you've been burned or burned out by the church, if you've been silenced or misunderstood, if you've left or never even joined in the first place, this conversation is your invitation to consider what you miss out on when you give up on church--and what the church misses out on when it gives up on you.
