There’s Still Time to Connect With a Small Group for our Philippians Series!
We kicked off our next round of small groups, now focused on our new teaching series: “Joy in the Storm”. We have the opportunity over the next seven weeks to study along with this using the Discovery Bible Study method. This will not only help you prepare for Sunday but grow in your own understanding and application of what’s being taught.
Our last series of joint sessions before we break into individual groups happens TODAY at 2pm and 7pm.
So, if you’re interested in participating today, or being part of a group moving forward, please contact Patrick Thornton at Thornton.patrick@gmail.com or 519-835-1005 to get connected.

A thought for the day: The Devil works to consume us in doubt, fear and worry.
Satan tries to deceive us into thinking we’re all alone, he want us to doubt God, live in fear and worry about everything going on. He’s crafty. The Bible tells us he is a schemer. He is cunning and evil. He can never be trusted. He is a master manipulator. So not only be aware of this but don’t fall for his schemes. Look to God in times like this and live in the light, seeking to listen to his voice.
We read in Genesis 3: “Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden?’” He lied to Eve and Adam and the result is the fallen world we live in today, including Covid.
But God doesn’t leave us hanging.
Paul wrote: “Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.” Put on the armor of God, resist the devil as Jesus did in the wilderness and he WILL flee. Don’t let him put you in a place of doubt, fear or worry but live triumphantly in God.
In His grip,
Pastor Chris
