This is part of Fred McKinnon's Sunday Setlist Group. Yes, I'm still alive!! It's been a while but with the move done and the slow emptying boxes, the place is beginning to look liveable!! :) This past Sunday was good. Had a Baptism which is ALWAYS good!!! Pastor William had the enviable task of pre...

This is part of Fred McKinnon's Sunday Setlist Group. It was a great Sunday. It was week 3 into our series on "Foundation". We played "Jesus Messiah" for the first time and really hit it well. The congregation reacted real well to it too. This week has been busy, we're finally coming to head with go...

Check this out... A coach of a Texas high-school basketball team that beat another team 100-0 was sacked because of the victory margin! The school that sacked him was a Christian school and their comment about the sacking was: "It is shameful and an embarrassment that this happened. This clearly do...

Last week I hit on the antichrist, arguing against the mainstream Christian notion that such a figure is a Biblical reality. Though I still hold a somewhat strong sentiment against the idea of there being a single figure that will be designated as THE antichrist, and believe the Bible does not porpo...

Being a Christian is always a challenge! There are so many theological debates, many of which we really won't be able to resolve this side of heaven. But a good debate is always worth it. So I figured I'd develop "Theology Friday" where I'd tackle some really difficult issues that aren't as clear ...

What to play or what not to play? That is the question! Choosing a song. The dilemma that can cause a headache each week to a worship leader is sometimes completely taken for granted by the congregation. It is not unusual for someone to question "your music selection" every week, and then offer thei...

Today a president is sworn in and I really have mixed feelings about it all. It's not about the swearing in that has me all bothered. It's an attitude amongst Christians that has me slightly nauseated. The last time I was in the US during an election year was 1992. I had just become a Christian (lit...

This part of Fred McKinnon's Sunday Setlist Group. I have to say, I really had a lot of fun this past Sunday. It didn't go as smoothly as I had hoped but it was still great. There's always an expectation when you come to the end of the year, whether it be a sigh of relief, or a prayer of thanksgiv...

This is part of Fred McKinnon's Sunday Setlist Group. Wow! I know I've been inactive on this blog for the past couple of weeks but so much has been happening! Last week we had our Annual General Meeting. All is going great. We announced and affirmed Steve Kane as the new member of the Pastoral team...

  This is part of Gary Durbin's Word Wednesday A friend of mine has been encouraging me to memorize Philippians 2:3-4. I'm not the best at memorizing scripture. I can usually find what I need in a general way, but quoting chapter and verse has always been a little difficult for me (I need a bigger ...
