Hope for the Weary

December 13, 2020 • Carolyn Petkau, Jon Courtney, Todd Petkau • Luke 1

Our tour down the halls of history continues this week as we make our way through Luke 1 & 2! The walls of this magnificent monument are lined with the portraits of unsuspecting people, caught up in the unfolding drama that will one day become ‘Christmas’! Join us as we study and learn from each of these portraits!

The Weary World Rejoices

December 27, 2020 • Jon Courtney, Carolyn Petkau, Todd Petkau

For the last three weekends, we’ve been walking through Luke 1 & 2, meeting the characters that played a pivotal role in the original Christmas story. While many people are getting ready to pack up Baby Jesus and put Christmas away for another year, we’re continuing the story with what happened next!

The Search for the Weary

December 20, 2020 • Carolyn Petkau, Jon Courtney, Todd Petkau • Luke 1—2

As we flip through the photo album we know as Luke chapters 1 and 2, we’re taking time to study the characters we meet on these pages! Herod, Zechariah, Elizabeth, Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, the Angels, and this weekend, Simeon, Anna, and the Magi! We join them in their search for the Messiah!

Weary People

December 6, 2020 • Carolyn Petkau, Jon Courtney, Todd Petkau

As we move into our tenth month of this pandemic, weariness is becoming a theme for many! Our new series, inspired by the old Christmas carol, O Holy Night, will introduce us to some of the original weary characters of the story and provide us with fresh and timely inspiration for the season…and life!
