Name: 2024-01-21 Reconstruction - Part 3: Holding The Faith When You Don't Have Faith, Pastor Matt Dyck by SunWest Church
Duration: 55 min 50 s
Description: Over the last couple of weeks, we have talked about Deconstruction, what it is, and why we get there. When Deconstruction is done well with the right motive it can be a source of tremendous growth in our lives. But how do we go about that “reconstruction” process? Join us this week and next as we look at how to reconstruct our faith well.

Where was God on Good Friday? Was he standing at a distance punishing Jesus? Was he turning his back on Jesus at his weakest moment? When Jesus spoke his last words, "My God, my God why have you forsaken me?", what was happening? Perhaps the key to understanding this world-altering mystery is found 1000 years before Jesus spoke those last words.

Have you ever made a wish? Did it come true, and was it everything you hoped it would be? A celebrity once said, "God punishes us by giving us everything we want." The children of Israel experienced this as they asked God for a king. God gave them their wish, but it didn't quite turn out the way they were thinking. Why was that? 
 
Are we any different, as we list off all the things that we think might make our lives better? Do we treat God as the real king of our hearts, or do we treat him as if he were a magical genie, granting our wishes? As we enter Holy Week, starting with Palm Sunday, let's be careful of what we wish for.

2024-03-24 The Gospel BC - Part 5: Be Careful What You Wish For, Pastor Dave Chow

God's plan for the redemption of all people has been in place far longer than we at times imagine. Listen as we see how God foretold centuries before the events of Good Friday, through the Passover meal, the enduring sacrifice of Jesus as we reflect, celebrate, and discover more of what Easter means for us today.

Celebrate with us as we see the culmination of God's plan for eternal life for us all through the resurrection of Jesus and listen how this too was a sign of things to come foretold through the events in Bethany. He is risen indeed!

2024-03-31 Easter Sunday, Pastor Matt Dyck

For the last five years, this word (or at least what it represents) has dominated the cultural, religious, political, and personal landscape.  Individuals, businesses, and people groups can get canceled in a moment. The result is a culture of fear-mongering, threats, power games, and crowd-pleasing. The playground where this bullying plays out is social media. What does it look like to follow Jesus in a cancel culture? What if "they" are clearly in the wrong? What if I've been canceled? Even though this feels "new", it's not. Jesus was canceled. He has shown us the way to live in a volatile polarizing culture and he has invited us to follow him.

2024-04-07 Cancel Culture - Part 1: Crowded Out, Pastor Matt Dyck

You can see what’s wrong with them. You know what people should have done and what they shouldn’t have done. You’ve been hurt and offended. At that point, you're at a crossroads. You can choose to walk in Kingdom Culture (the way of Jesus) or Cancel Culture (the way of the world). This week we look at one of the most well-known but least implemented sayings of Jesus.

2024-04-14 Cancel Culture - Part 2: Planks, Pigs, and Flowers, Pastor Matt Dyck

Last week we considered how condemning, shaming, and calling out is a reflection of cancel culture’s attempt to control others. This does not reflect the kingdom culture of Jesus. But the question remains, when someone is acting and living in ways contrary to God’s Kingdom how should we respond? This Sunday we begin a two-week response to that question.

2024-04-21 Cancel Culture - Part 3: Drawing Circles, Pastor Matt Dyck

We’ve spent a few weeks looking at Cancel Culture and how the death and resurrection of Jesus should impact our postures as followers of Jesus. Last week we talked about confronting other followers of Jesus in a redemptive way. This week we will address the topic of how the church should impact and respond to other people, groups, and authorities in a cancel culture. We invite you to come with an open heart as we explore the counter-cultural power of God’s Kingdom.
