In Ephesians 2:1–10, Paul reminds us of the sobering truth: apart from Christ we are not “mostly dead,” but spiritually dead and unable to rescue ourselves. Yet the story does not end there. In this passage, we also read that God, who is rich in mercy and great in love, moves toward us even in our brokenness and makes us alive together with Christ. This sermon explores the depth of our need, the abundance of God’s mercy, and the hope found in the gentle and lowly heart of Jesus.

gentle and lowly

september 14, 2025 - march 22, 2026

Christians can easily feel that Jesus is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. They know what Christ has done for them—but who is He? How does He feel about His people amid all their sins and failures?


In Matthew 11, Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. This book reflects on His words, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of Christ’s affections for sinners and encouraging believers as they journey, weary and faltering, toward heaven.


Join us as we take a closer look at the heart of Jesus - gentle, lowly, and full of grace.

Global displacement and refugee crisis with myal Greene

conversing with mark labberton

“More of the church is committed to their immigrant neighbours than the media or politicians would like the public to believe.” (Myal Green, from the episode) 


Myal Greene (president and CEO of World Relief) joins host Mark Labberton to discuss the global humanitarian crises, refugee resettlement, and the church’s responsibility to respond with courage and compassion. From Rwanda's post-genocide reconciliation following 1994 to the 2025 dismantling of humanitarian aid and refugee programs in the US, Greene shares how his personal faith journey fuels his leadership amid historic humanitarian upheaval. Rooted in Scripture and the global moral witness of the church, Greene challenges listeners to imagine a more faithful Christian response to suffering—one that refuses to turn away from the world’s most vulnerable. Despite the current political polarization and rising fragility of moral consensus, Greene calls on the church to step into its biblical role: speaking truth to power, welcoming the stranger, standing with the oppressed, and embodying the love of Christ in tangible, courageous ways.
