Our fourth and final sermon on our “T-Word” series. God has given us talents for us to use in service to the kingdom of God. Do we know how to apply them? Are we aware of how we’re using them? Are we seeming to advance our own kingdom? Or Gods?

The book of Malachi is like a father describing to his son 6 things that are keeping them apart. Keeping them from right relationship. In Malachi 3, one of the reasons given is "robbing God" by withholding the "tithes". Consequently the result of "bringing" to God what belongs to him is the knowledge of his true provision for us, until we have no more need.

40% of what Jesus taught on was money - Yet, its a taboo topic, especially in church. Jesus taught us in order to give us fullness of life and freedom. Including our relationship with money and the control it can have over us - as well as - the worship we can end up devoting to it

As believers, we respond to who God is by bringing to him our first and best. Meaning, in all areas of life - we put him first and devote the best of what we have. This includes our time. If God is not a first, then everything else will be out of order afterwards. Don't think of God as an item on the "To-Do" list, but as the paper we write our lives down on

Your prayer life is a sign of where your faith is at. Sometimes, Gods greatest gift to us is an unanswered prayer. We should be praying for big outcomes because it pushes us to have big faith, but ultimately, prayer is surrendering our own will to God's sovereignty. Which is where the Christians draws life from.

We see in the example of Jesus being tempted in the wilderness that sin and identity can walk closely, hand-in-hand. What the world says about identity is "find a label." What the bible says about identity has more to do with what God has done for you then what you can do for yourself / come up with. • Meaning we were made for so much more than a label can provide.

Join us as we have Frontier Campuses very own Payton McKellar preach here at NLC Castlegar.

How do you know when it's God saying stuff, and when it's not him. God's a father who speaks to his children, all the time. But that's not the only voice trying to get your attention. There's a way to miss his messages and a way to capture them.  Join us as we meet with KPCC this Sunday HERE at NLC Castlegar.

When Husband and wife walk together in Gods purpose for marriage. Its a powerful thing. Marriage is designed by God to be a reflection of his relationship with the church. And the truth is. When Head and Helper work together, the children know freedom. This is true for the church, and the family unit.

It’s important to have the mindset and understanding on how Christ’s suffering reshapes the way we face our own. Let’s figure out what it means to arm ourselves with the mind of Christ, break free from sinful patterns, and trust God to use our suffering for our good and for His glory.

Jesus redeems our past, present and future. In our failures our guilt and our shame he does shy away from us. Like Peter he comes to meet with us and direct us back into his will and purpose even when we find ourselves Pulled back into our own lives.

John 19 tells the story of Jesus' crucifixion through the lens of His unwavering love. Though fully aware of the betrayal, rejection, and suffering ahead, Jesus willingly went to the cross anyway. This message explores His finished work and our response to it.

The heart of fatherhood is summed up this way - one whom, in love, is willing to take responsibility for things beyond himself. Acts like these can only come from our character. Fatherhood changes who you are  - we cant show what we don't know.The areas we struggle with the most are the very areas we allow Gods love in the least.Biblical fatherhood is not about conjuring for ourselves the right moves at the right moments but rather letting the example ofGod to you - flow through you.

Jesus prays for you! That we would be kept unified and in him despite hardship in this world. With the ultimate goal being, that we experience perfect unity with God. Has disunity or “truth” not found in Gods word lead you away from God in the past? How about now? Knowing Jesus’ prayer for you, what action can you take towards Jesus’ prayed will for your life?

When your joy is in the Lord, and you know you're not alone because God is with you then you don't have to be the overcomer if you know the overcomer. Where are you currently experiencing sorrow? In that experience are you fighting to work it out yourself? Or are you trusting that God will turn into joy?
