The Bible is filled with promises and proverbs. But how do we tell the difference, and why does it matter?

This week in Wise Words for Summer, we’re talking about the heart. Not the emoji kind—but the real centre of who you are. Proverbs 4:20–27 reminds us to guard our hearts because everything we do flows from it. That includes what we say, how we act, and the paths we choose.Whether you’re on the go or gathered with us in person, let God’s Word shape how you live from the inside out. Let’s keep our eyes on Jesus, the source of wisdom and life.Each week, we’ll explore how God's wisdom speaks into real areas of life—our decisions, our relationships, our words, and our legacy.

Church is not a spectator event. It’s a body where every member matters. This week, we’ll talk about how membership invites you to take part—using your gifts, your presence, and your voice to strengthen the whole. You were made to participate, not just observe it.

Is church just a place you go—or is it a people you belong to? In this message, we look at why belonging to a local church matters more than we realise. Discover how the gospel reshapes our need for connection and why membership is the difference between attending and being known.

After all the battles, heartbreak, and failure, David’s story draws to a close. In 2 Samuel 22–23, we hear his final words and a song of praise. It’s not a perfect ending—but it’s full of grace. David looks back not with pride, but with gratitude. He knows it was God who sustained him, rescued him, and gave him strength to keep going.These chapters remind us that finishing well isn’t about having a spotless record—it’s about clinging to the faithfulness of God. Even after deep failure, David trusted in the mercy of the Lord.His life points us forward to Jesus—the true King who never failed, and whose grace is enough to help us run our race to the very end.Join us in person each Sunday at 10:00 am at 2458 St Frances Drive.The digital bulletin can be found here: https://calvaryburlington.ca/bulletinIf you are interested in learning more about Calvary, want to connect with us, or interested in learning more, visit https://calvaryburlington.ca/connect-cardTo support this ministry and help us continue to reach pe

When life falls apart, where do you turn? In 2 Samuel 15–18, David finds himself in the middle of a storm—betrayed by his own son, forced to flee, and surrounded by uncertainty. It’s a story of grief, loss, and the painful consequences of past sins. Yet even in the middle of the chaos, we see grace.David doesn’t cling to power—he clings to God. His heart is heavy, but his hope is alive. In the storm, we see glimpses of a King who trusts God’s will, even when it costs him everything.This part of David’s story helps us see our own need for a Saviour who is steady in the storm. One who doesn’t run from suffering but walks through it to bring redemption. That King is Jesus.Join us in person each Sunday at 10:00 am at 2458 St Frances Drive.

This week’s passage deals with a deeply sensitive and painful story—the tragic account of Tamar in 2 Samuel 13–14. It’s a raw and heartbreaking chapter that confronts us with abuse, injustice, and the devastating silence that followed. We won’t shy away from the weight of this story. Tamar’s voice matters. Her pain matters. And the failure of David to act with justice and courage exposes the brokenness not only in his family, but in the human heart.These chapters remind us that even Israel’s greatest king fell short—passive when he should have pursued justice, silent when he should have spoken. In the grind of human failure and grief, this story leaves us longing for a better King. One who sees. One who defends. One who heals. That King is Jesus.

Failure isn't the end of the story. In 2 Samuel 11 & 12, David’s greatest failure is laid bare—but so is God's relentless grace. Sin has consequences, but mercy runs deeper. This Sunday, we’ll see how God’s grace meets us in our worst moments, offering redemption, restoration, and a new way forward. No matter how far we've fallen, grace is never out of reach.

David’s life was full of battles—both on the field and in his heart. 2 Samuel 8-10 shows us a king strengthened by God’s grace as he faces opposition, secures victories, and extends kindness where it’s least expected. But the grind of leadership, responsibility, and conflict is relentless. In this series, we’ll explore how God’s grace meets us in the fight—whether it’s against external struggles or the battles within. His grace isn’t just for the mountaintops; it carries us through the grind of work, weariness, and waiting.Link to the full service: https://www.youtube.com/live/zEQvltpx3jA?si=8s0Akml2v1s_snHN
