” (James 2:15-17) Sanctity of Life Sunday “Living FaithThe Demonstration (vv. 15-16) 1 Jo. 3:17 17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? 18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. Pro. 24:11-12 Rescue those who are being taken away to death; hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter. 12 If you say, “Behold, we did not know this, does not he who weighs the heart perceive it? Does not he who keeps watch over your soul know it, and will he not repay man according to his work? The Definition (v. 17) Matt. 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.” What do we offer? Justice, hope and help. - Justice: is the truth about abortion, voting and speaking Christianly (Psa. 82:3-4). - Hope: reject abortion as the moral wrong (sin) that it is. - Help: tangible (foster care, adoption, body & soul care).

Resolutions For A Living Faith by Pastor Dan DeBell
James 2 challenges us to examine whether our faith is dead or alive. Dead faith consists of empty words without action, like telling someone to be warm and fed while doing nothing to help them. Even demons have intellectual knowledge about God, but they remain unchanged. Living faith, however, produces tangible works that demonstrate genuine transformation. Abraham showed living faith by offering Isaac, and Rahab demonstrated it by helping the Israelite spies. True faith creates a partnership between belief and action, shaping how we lead our families spiritually, love our church, and live with purpose. The ultimate question is whether the life we're living is worthy of Christ's death on the cross.

As a Fellowship, Living Faith has always believed that healthy churches reproduce and that the great commission demands far more than maintaining what already exists. It calls us to send laborers into the harvest to plant vibrant, disciple making churches in places where gospel centered, Bible believing communities are desperately needed.Toronto offers exactly that kind of opportunity. A global crossroads where the nations converge. Toronto is one of the most diverse, dynamic, and densely populated cities in North America. A true epicenter of business, education, technology and culture. Today, on the postscript, we're joined by Josh O'Hora, professional counselor with Sound Mind, and a church planter preparing to launch a new work in Toronto.Josh and his family are currently on deputation, partnering with churches to build the support system needed to establish that gospel centered disciple making church that we were describing in one of the most influential and multicultural cities in the world.Visit https://www.lftoronto.com/Visit https://www.lffellowship.com/Visit https://www.lfbi.org/learnmore
Sunday PM - Mark
A special message from the Book of Habakkuk by Mr. Bob Rider, Calvary Chapel of the Cumberland Valley.
In his most recent books The Master and His Emissary (2009) and The Matter with Things (2021), psychiatrist and neuroscientist Ian McGilchrist has explored the meaning of the asymmetry between the right and left hemispheres of the brain. His thesis is that we are in a period in history where the West has become obsessed with the reductionistic, decontextualised, algorithmic thinking of the left brain, whilst devaluing the holistic, integrated and lived experience of the right brain. I will be exploring the implications of McGilchrist's thesis for Christian faith and asking whether his ideas might help us understand why many Christians today feel their faith lacks a living experience of God.Please note that the ideas expressed in this lecture do not necessarily represent the views of L'Abri Fellowship.For more resources, visit the L'Abri Ideas Library at labriideaslibrary.org. The library contains over two thousand lectures and discussions that explore questions about the reality and relevance of Christianity. This is a public episode.

Real faith meets needs and moves toward others.
In this episode, the pastors visit Freddy's Kitchen at the Yonder Cider Taproom in Cashmere, WA along with guest pastor, Zach Day, and ask the question God once posed to Ezekiel: “Can these bones live?” Together we explore how God breathes new life into what feels dead—our faith, relationships, and communities. Join us as we talk about moving beyond routine religion into the abundant, hope-filled life Jesus promises and how the church can be a place where dry bones come alive again.
