Year-End Reflection

Published on January 10th, 2012 by in None

All praise & glory to God who is our Wonderful Saviour of the world and Messiah.

He blessed our GTA Christmas Celebration on Dec 11th, as well as our own Christmas Worship Service. God used Pastor Paul Lee as an insightful and gracious Christmas messenger on Matt 1:18-25 titled, “Immanuel—God with us.” Through this message we learned about Jesus’ amazing humility and his perfect love. He loves humanity with his entire being, but the problem is that we are sinful and He is a Holy God. He rectified that problem by sending his one and only Son Jesus Christ into this world to save his people from their sins. His humility is even further revealed when we see where and how Jesus was born. He wasn’t born in a luxurious palace with comfortable bedding and sheets; instead he was born in a cold and dirty stable and placed in a manger. The Holy God was reduced to a human being and was born in a stable for us. Such great love! Jesus is Immanuel which means God with us. The most perplexing and wonderful thing about our God is that He is not a distant God who rules with Tyranny from above. He yearns and earnestly desires to encounter us and to be with us. Even though sinners did not ask for Him, God came to us. Through the birth of Jesus Christ, God became tangible, approachable and proximate. We thank God for sending Jesus Christ to be with us and to save us of our sins! (more…)

Seneca Bible Cafe

Published on November 3rd, 2011 by in Posts

We thank God for his abundant grace and blessing for the Campus Bible Club’s first school event with 24 attendants! Many new students attended this event which was a true blessing from God.

Campus Bible Club hosted a Bible Cafe held in Seneca Newnham Campus @ 4:30 – 5:45pm.

The Bible Cafe is a conversational style event where people are free to have open discussions regarding a topic or theme. The theme we were discussing was, “The Gospel.”

Matthew Vanderkooij (President of CBC) gave the opening address and welcomed everyone. We watched a video clip from the short-film “The Bridge” from the movie Most. It was a very inspiring and emotional short-film that vividly illustrates the Father God’s unimaginable choice to sacrifice his beloved Son to save ungrateful sinners. (more…)
