Having lived and worked in two different countries and started a company in a heavily-regulated field, Isabella is no stranger to navigating the paperwork-laden and jargon-infused maze of properly understanding taxes for a newly formed small business.

March 16, 2025 // Christ Collides with our Condemnation // Lent 2 18:41

1 day ago18:41

18:41

We often assume that as followers of Jesus, we are called not to condemn, but our passage from Luke 13 complicates that. Jesus refuses to condemn people who are suffering as "sinners" deserving of their fate, but he also has harsh words for political and religious leaders who abuse their power. So Jesus calls us not to condemn or dehumanize people, but we do have to stand up against violent actions. Peacebuilder Lisa Schirch speaks of this as "two-handed peacebuilding," where one hand is held up to "stop" the violence but the other is held out as an invitation to remain in relationship and humanize the other. Susanne Guenther Loewen was our speaker this week.…

March 9, 2025 // Christ Collides with our Bias // Lent 1 28:35

8 days ago28:35

28:35

This season of Lent brings the series theme "Christ Collides." Apparently our encounters with the stories of Jesus are meant to leave us disturbed and disoriented, if not bruised and shaken. Ouch! Why would anyone sign up for that? Listen to "Collision Course" from Joe Heikman drawn from Luke 10:25-42.…

March 2, 2025 // Living in the Light: Transfiguraiton 18:45

15 days ago18:45

18:45

In Luke 9, Jesus takes three of his friends up a mountain for a dazzling display of glory: the Transfiguration. In the midst of their ministry and on the journey towards Jerusalem, they're offered a glimpse of what is to come. How do these mountain top moments shape us as we walk through the messiness of this world? Are we open to transformation in the thin places where we meet God?…

February 23, 2025 // Living in the Light: Mercy that Moves 38:13

22 days ago38:13

38:13

This Sunday’s service featured a “coffee shop conversation” between Lisi and Joe reflecting on Luke 6:27-38, the second part of Jesus’ Sermon on the Plain. "Love your enemies...turn the other cheek... be merciful as God is merciful...etc." Does Jesus really mean for us to do all of that stuff? How can we possibly live up to those ideals? Join the conversation!…

February 9, 2025 // Living in the Light: Worthy of following the life of Jesus 8:28

5 weeks ago8:28

8:28

How do we respond to those who feel unworthy? How do we work at reframing the messages that have us believe we are not enough? How do we, like Jesus, call each other forward into hope, healing and worthiness? We were pleased to have our own Heather Peters (MCC SK Peacebuilding Coordinator) provide our 5-Minute Focus on this Brunch Sunday. In closing Heather invited us to listen to and watch When God Imagined Me by Alana Levandoski and to pray for people who are experiencing feelings of unworthiness – whether through systems, cultural narratives or relationships.…

February 2, 2025 // Living in the Light: Anna & Simeon 24:49

6 weeks ago24:49

24:49

Luke 2 tells the story of Anna and Simeon, two elderly folks who interrupt baby Jesus' first trip to the Temple with their joyful proclamations. What is this simple story doing as the final story of Jesus' early days in Luke's gospel? Why do these old "prophets" matter and what could we learn from them about identity, hope and blessing?…

January 26, 2025 // Living in the Light: Good News for All! 24:49

7 weeks ago24:49

24:49

In Luke 4, Jesus begins his public ministry with an "inaugural" sermon in his hometown of Nazareth. His message, coming straight from the prophet Isaiah, bears a challenging word for his first audience and for us. In these challenging times, we ask ourselves: can we live out the radical message of the gospel, and what are we willing to endure and give up?…

January 12, 2025 // Living in the Light: Christ has come…now what? 29:23

9 weeks ago29:23

29:23

"You want a new world? Great. Get real still and let the old world die." The promise (or threat?) of a whole new world is in the air all around us these days--politically, economically, ecologically and personally. How do we navigate the bumpy waters of change--longed for or forced upon us--in ways that lead to health and growth? And what does this have to do with Jesus' baptism?…

10 weeks ago14:27

14:27

Epiphany is the season after Christmas in which we celebrate the incarnation of the Divine, the revelation of God in the person of Jesus Christ. In Matthew 2:1-12, we follow the journey of the "Magi" from the east to Bethlehem, learning that God works in unexpected ways and gifts come in unexpected places.…

December 22, 2024 // Advent 4 // Together on the Journey: Love // Love Makes Things Grow 22:02

12 weeks ago22:02

22:02

With the prophet Isaiah, we imagine the world as it could be and full of life - flowers and rivers in the desert, and a Sacred Path back home. Jesus offers the same prophetic imagination to see the world differently. This transformation is slow but sure work, and we are invited to take part. As we wrap up this Advent season, we pray that hope and peace and joy and love flourish in us and transform the world around us.…

December 8, 2024 // Advent 2 // Together on the Journey: Peace // Peace Inside Out 24:59

14 weeks ago24:59

24:59

Advent is a season of peace and love and harmony, as envisioned by the prophet Isaiah's poetry about wolves and lambs resting together, toddlers playing with vipers, vegetarian lions, etc. That sounds lovely (if a little boring), but... here in the real world, conflict and destruction persist, to put it lightly. Why do we care about an ancient, idealistic vision of peace? And how might we practice this vision within ourselves and our communities?…

December 1, 2024 // Advent 1 // Together on the Journey: Hope // Mary’s Song 27:39

14 weeks ago27:39

27:39

On this first Sunday of Advent, we ponder what it means to have hope along with Mary through the lens of The Magnificat (Luke 1:46-55). This song offers a word of hope for a waiting and oppressed people, and invites us to "go and do likewise" and join God in bringing hope to our hurting world.

November 24, 2024 // Eternity Sunday // Everything's Gonna Be Alright 19:15

19:15

On Eternity Sunday, the last Sunday of the traditional church calendar, at Wildwood we take time to name and grieve for our losses in the past year. This year's snow storm meant that only a few of us met at the church building while most others joined online. This solemn service raises big questions for many of us, especially about death, resurrection and the afterlife. What is the basis for the Christian hope that not even death can separate us from the love of God? How do we know that, in the end, everything is going to be okay?…
