Lift Church - Mcmaster

Jesus sends us into the world to proclaim the good news to all creation. But do we know and believe that the Good News is actually good news?

Just like the three women at the tomb, Christ's death and resurrection means that we can each have a story. We each have an active role in the mission of the church because Christ's story is now our story.

"My God, why have you forsaken me?" Fewer more painful words could be uttered. Yet, despite these words - Jesus gloriously prevailed. How and why?

This passage shows us why Jesus' humanity was important. He took on our weakness and therefore our suffering, so that he could transform it. Because he did that, we can take on his strength. When we become aware of the gap between our love and his...

There are competing for justice - one that takes our propensity for idolatry seriously and one that underesimates the condition of the human heart. Often our attempts at justice simply create more injustice. What are we to do? If we are going to...

We might think that trusting Jesus as Lord hinges on how well we can hold on to him, but what if it actually had more to do with his hold on us?

So often, we are told to be "like Jesus." But, what does that practically mean? Is it even practical? Jesus love for us was radical, beautiful and a very through it we have invitation to be like him. Today, we will talk about what the means.

In response to Jesus' love, how can you be unfairly and intentionally loving to someone this week?

Gospel Leadership doesn't end with us having direct influence on many people, instead the Gospel calls us to raise leaders who themselves raise leaders. We'll discover that this call is an act of faith and we'll explore the faith to active, to...

The Gospel revolutionizes leadership by positioning the Gospel Leader to steer their families in the area of truth, Godliness and lifestyle. These three areas are typically considered "off-limits" and "private" by our culture. Yet, they are...

The Gospel revolutionizes the leaders' commitment, character, and competence such that we are re-positioned towards loving others sacrificially and at the same time experience the love of Jesus deeper. Gospel leaders love because we are loved.

Are you a ""Gospel Leader?"" On Sunday, we introduced the concept of Gospel Leadership - the notion that the essential frame of reference for thinking about leadership in the church was through a family. The idea of leading a family...

Leadership can be a beautiful, powerful force. When used effectively, leadership will bring the best out of people, leading to collective thriving in families, communities and even countries. However, when abused, leadership is profoundly...

What do you think when you think of the word sacrifice? We can tend to look at sacrifice as daunting or something that requires everything that we have. That may be true but see how this one woman sacrificed, knowing that there isn't anything to...

It is a natural human tendency to put our hope in things: situations, success, money, material goods, people, ourselves are all things we frequently hope in. In this sermon we'll discover we have a much greater hope in Jesus.

Our world may be upside down, but Jesus has given us great wisdom in terms of how we can respond. Today, we draw hope from the markers of an apocalyptic Church for navigating our world today.
