SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Jonah 2:1-10

KEY VERSE(S): Jonah 2:7 “When my life was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple.”

BOTTOM LINE: Grace is found in the turnaround.

PROMO DESCRIPTION: Have you ever run from God and wondered if there was a way back? Jonah knew exactly what God had asked, and he still ran until there was nowhere left to run.

Alone in the outcome of his disobedience, Jonah offers a prayer of surrender and...

 IDOLS: Uncovering misplaced worship

It works, and it’s better than mine. It has the right flow, and the second paragraph carries the sermon’s heart. Here it is with a few small fixes:

Most of us have someone we admire, whether it’s a pop star, an athlete, a podcaster, or the person we’re trying to become. This week, in the final message of our IDOLS series, we’re looking at the Idol of Idols and the personas we build for ourselves.

The lie is that a persona can tell us who we shou...

SERMON TITLE: The Idol of Pleasure (Gratification-Centred Identity, Security or Belonging)

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: 2 Timothy 3:1-5

KEY VERSE(S): 2 Timothy 3:4b-5 (ESV) lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, 5 having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people.

BOTTOMLINE: Chasing pleasure keeps us from loving God.

PROMO DESCRIPTION: 

We all chase something when we’re tired, stressed, bored or lonely. This Sunday at Mountainview Church, we’re looking at the Idol of Pleasure.

God made...

 IDOLS: Uncovering misplaced worship

Living in the Yukon means we're surrounded by creation that takes our breath away. This week in our IDOLS series, we're looking at the idol of creation and the warning found in Romans not to trade the Creator for created things.

Whether it's the lake, the trapline, the northern lights, or an environmental cause, we can start looking to the land to tell us who we are, keep us safe, and make us feel at home. God calls creation good and asks us to care for it, but He we can d...

We live in a world that keeps asking how many people are watching. This week in our IDOLS series, we're looking at the idol of platform; asking the question, "Are we seeking the approval of man or of God?"

Whether it's a global following, a professional title, or a reputation in a small town, we can start looking to a crowd to tell us who we are and what we should value. But life is to be lived for God's glory.

The crowd will never offer what Christ can guarantee. Join us this Sunday at...

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Psalms 127:1-2 (ESV)

KEY VERSE: Psalms 127:1 (ESV) Unless the LORD builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain.

BOTTOM LINE: Work is vanity unless God is the Builder.

PROMO DESCRIPTION:

We've all felt it; working so hard that you fall into bed each night, and somehow it still feels like it's not enough. Scripture has a word for that feeling: vanity, labour that leaves us empty...

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Psalm 127:3-5 (ESV) Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.

KEY VERSE: Psalms 127:3 (ESV) 3 Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb a reward.

BOTTOMLINE: Children are a heritage from God, not a validation...

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Genesis 2:18-25

KEY VERSE(S): Genesis 2:24 (ESV) Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.

BOTTOM LINE: A spouse can bring connection, but Christ brings completion.

PROMO DESCRIPTION:Culture and media keep sending the same message: find the right person, and you'll finally feel whole, safe, and known. But is it wise to make another person the pinnacle of our existence?

This week we're starting a new series called IDOLS, beginning with the idol of...

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Proverbs 22:6

KEY VERSE: Proverbs 22:6 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it. ESV

BOTTOM LINE: We train our children in the way by walking it with them but ultimately, Jesus is the Way.

PROMO DESCRIPTION: What does Proverbs 22:6 actually mean when it says, “Train up a child in the way he should go”? In this message, we explore what it means to intentionally shape a chil...

Who gets to decide when suffering ends? The assumption in Western culture is the individual who is suffering, but for most Christians, it's more complex than that.

In our final week of Questions & Answers, we're stepping into one of the hardest conversations facing Canadians today: Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD).

We'll learn where real comfort comes from, and what it costs to become that comfort for someone else. Then we'll close with communion, remembering the One who suffered first so His comfort could reach us.

Series: Questions & Answers

We live in a culture where every election feels like a fight for the soul of the country. It's easy to let politics start doing the job your identity was supposed to do.

This week we open the Gospel of Matthew, where Jesus gets handed a political trap by two groups who agreed on nothing except wanting Him gone. He answers by holding up a coin: "Render to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."

We'll talk about what it looks like to let your identity in Christ come before your loyalty...

Scripture passage: Mark 10:42-45

Bottom Line: Greatness in his kingdom is not measured by accomplishment or staus, but by the giving of one's self.

Promo: 

The world is full of voices that tell us to be focused on the self first. We need to be first. We need to attain a status that others will admire. We need to be true to ourselves and what our hearts desire. We need to prioritize our own version of the truth. It is a world of self-obsession and self-worship. The i...

What does love really mean? We live in a culture that says real love means never disagreeing, never correcting, never making anyone feel judged.

This week, we open 1 Corinthians 13 and trace how Paul defines love as something that refuses to insist on its own way and refuses to celebrate what's wrong. Instead of picking sides in an argument, we're recovering a love based on truth and shaped by Jesus.

If you've ever wondered whether staying honest with someone you love means loving them less, this one's for you. We'll be ending our gathering with communion...

Who am I, and who gets to decide? We live in a culture that says your identity is something you discover inside yourself, and the world should affirm it.

This week, we open Titus 3 and ask the question: What if we were never meant to author our own identity? We'll trace how God's design for gender, sexuality and identity flows from His holiness and love, not from cultural pressure or feeling.

This isn't a message about who's in and who's out, but about who has the authority to decide. If you've ever felt the weight...

Our culture promotes abortion as a matter of choice, but Scripture reveals that it's a matter of authority. If God formed you on purpose and knew every day of your life before you ever took a breath, shouldn't He have the choice?

This week, we're asking a difficult question to navigate in our modern era: What is the value of a human life? And who gets to decide on that value?

If God has the authority, was the choice ever really ours to begin with? Join us as we seek out Scriptural truth, review the...

We live in a world full of opinions and outrage, where every issue becomes a battle line, and everyone's already picked a side.

This summer, we're starting a series that walks straight into the hardest questions our culture is fighting over: abortion, gender and sexuality, cancel culture, medical assistance in dying, and more.

But before we tackle any of those, we have to start by asking, "Is there an absolute truth?" And if the claim is that the Bible holds absolute truth, how can we trust it?

Series: Questions & Answers

Speaker...

For three weeks, we've been looking at a cord: threefold, unbreakable, woven before the first wedding ever happened. We've seen that the Trinity is the original relationship, that the man was woven in first and called to image Christ in sacrificial love. This week, we come to the third strand, the one whose presence secures the portrait and makes it visible to the world. In Genesis 2, God looked at everything He had made and said for the first time: not good. Not because something was broken, but because the picture wasn't finished yet. She wasn't made to complete a...

Before God created woman for man, he created man for Himself. He formed him, gave him work and oversight, and gave him direction before anyone else arrived. Genesis 2 unveils the creation of humanity; the story of a man being woven into relationship with God before he was joined to anyone else. This Sunday, as we continue our KNOTTED series, we'll discover what it means for a man to be made for God first. Then, what happens when men skip that relationship and go straight to an earthly connection.

Series: Knotted - The Bible & Marriage

Speaker...

We spend a lot of energy trying to build a relationship that will last; the right person, the right foundation, the right commitment. But what if the most unbreakable relationship in existence was already there before you arrived?

This week, we're starting a new series called Knotted, looking at what the Bible says about Marriage. Our starting point is found before the first couple, before creation, in the eternal relationship of our Triune God: Father, Son and Spirit.

God is the foundation of relationship, a picture of strength as a threefold cord. Join us this...

The Survival Kit is a message for anyone stepping into something new: a new grade, a new school, a new job, or a new season of life. Using simple everyday items, this teaching shows how God gives us spiritual “survival tools” for moments of fear, uncertainty, and transition. Based on Isaiah 41:10, this message reminds us that God’s presence, strength, help, and protection go with us wherever we go.

 Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary

We've spent five weeks watching ordinary people make faithful choices in hard seasons. All the while, God was quietly at work behind the scenes.

This Sunday, we close out Ruth's story, which turns out better than anyone could have expected. A mourning woman restored, a foreign widow welcomed, and a family line that reaches all the way to Jesus.

If your story feels unfinished, painful, or stuck somewhere in the middle, God is still working. We'll discover God in the ordinary one more time, then gather around t...

 Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary

Most of us know what we should do, but we're just waiting for a better moment. We're waiting for the perfect moment or maybe a sign from God, but what if it never comes?

This week in Ruth 4, we watch Boaz get up in the morning, call a meeting, and do what faithfulness asked of him. He didn't hesitate or delay what he knew needed to happen.

Maybe there's a decision you've been avoiding. Sometimes it takes more faith to walk the line than wait f...

SERMON TITLE: What Faithfulness Looks Like

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Ruth 3:1–18

KEY VERSE(S): Ruth 3:1 — "My daughter, should I not seek rest for you, that it may be well with you?"

THEME: Faithfulness

BOTTOMLINE: Following faithful counsel is an act of faith.

PROMO DESCRIPTION:

Some of the most important moments in your life were shaped by someone who saw further down the road than you could. This Sunday, as we continue through the Book of Ruth, we're goin...

Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary

Everyone's looking for the right partner, but most of us are using the wrong filter. This Sunday, we're back in the Book of Ruth, asking a question that cuts to the heart of every relationship: How do you know if someone is worth trusting?

At the end of chapter two, God begins to pull back the curtain on who Boaz really is in how he treats a foreign widow who can offer him nothing. It turns out the ordinary moments are where character is revealed and formed.

...

Fellowship Pacific is committed to sharing the hope of Jesus across British Columbia, the Yukon, and beyond—through local churches, prison ministry, church planting, and global missions.

In this video, you’ll hear powerful stories of life transformation. From prison walls to local communities, God is changing lives through programs like Alpha—bringing hope, purpose, and redemption to those who need it most. You’ll also hear testimonies of faith through grief, ministry in Indigenous communities, and young leaders stepping into their calling.

Together, we are part of a larger movement—one that is united in Christ...

Have you ever had a moment when you looked back and realized God had been working the whole time? But at the time, you just couldn't see it.

This Sunday, we're continuing our Ruth series, Finding God in the Ordinary. We'll find a young widow going to work in a field on an ordinary morning, but she walks into a moment that will change everything.

No miracles, no dramatic signs; just faithful presence meeting quiet providence. If you're in a season that feels unremarkable, routine, or like God has gone silent, this message is for...

 Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary

Some of the hardest decisions we make aren't the reckless ones; they're the ones that made complete sense at the time. This Sunday, we open the book of Ruth, a story set in one of the darkest seasons in Israel's history.

We meet a man who considered his options, chose the obvious one, and led his family in the wrong direction without knowing it. We also meet a woman who made one of the most remarkable turns in the entire Bible.

If you've ever made a choice t...

EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn

It was still dark… and hope felt gone.

On that first Easter morning, everything seemed lost.
Grief, fear, and doubt filled the hearts of Jesus’ followers.
But in a single moment, everything changed.

A name spoken in the dark.
Peace in a locked room.
Hope for the one who doubted.

Jesus didn’t wait for them to have it all together—He met them right where they were.

And He still does.

Discover a risen Savior who meets you in y...

 EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn

What looked like an execution… was actually a coronation.

On Good Friday, Jesus was mocked, beaten, and nailed to a cross.
To the world, it looked like a defeated king.
But every detail told a different story.

The crown of thorns.
The purple robe.
The sign above His head.

All pointing to one truth: Jesus is King. And in His final words—“It is finished”—He wasn’t giving up… He was completing the work of salvation.

Discover a King who took on our...

  EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn

What if you knew… someone would betray you— Would you still love them?

This Maundy Thursday, we remember the night Jesus chose to love… anyway.
He washed the feet of His disciples, He shared the bread and the cup and He loved—even those who would fail Him.
We are called to love like Jesus—by serving humbly, giving sacrificially, and remaining faithful to the end.

Discover a love that is: Humble, Sacrificial and Faithful to the end
Join us as we reflect on John 13 and partici...

  EASTER: From Darkness to Dawn

Today we begin our Easter journey, a week that changed everything. It starts with celebration: crowds shouting “Hosanna!” as Jesus enters Jerusalem. But even at that moment, many didn’t fully understand who He was.

Over this week, we’ll walk through the story of Jesus, His sacrifice, His love, and His victory.
So, as we start this week, here’s the question: Are we following Jesus for what we expect… or for who He truly is?

  EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind

We all want to make better decisions, but most of us are still reacting on impulse and wondering why the same patterns keep repeating. This Sunday at Mountainview Church, we wrap up our Emotions series with a message on the Discerning Heart.

We'll look at what it actually takes to build the kind of heart that stays steady when life gets hard, filters emotions through truth instead of impulse, and grows wiser with every obedient decision. Drawing from the wisdom literature of the Old Testament, this message i...

  EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind

We spend a lot of energy managing how we appear to other people and even to God. But the Bible tells us that God already sees every corner of our hearts.

This Sunday, we're in week three of our Emotions series, and we're asking a question most of us quietly avoid: what happens when we finally let God do the exam? We'll be walking through three of David's Penitential Psalms and tracing his journey from avoidance to concealment to confession.

If you've been carrying something h...

 EMOTIONS: Getting a Grip of Your Heart & Mind

Have you ever felt pulled in two directions at once? The world tells us to “follow your heart,” but what happens when your heart doesn’t know where it’s going? In Week 2 of our Emotions series, we’re talking about the divided heart and why unsettled loyalties lead to unstable lives. Looking at Joshua, Proverbs, and Psalm 86, we’ll see how choosing God as our destination changes everything. When the destination is clear, daily direction becomes steady. Join us as we learn how to move from a divided heart to a un...

 Deceptive Diagnosis

Have you ever reacted to something, only to realize later that you completely misread the situation? Our emotions are powerful, but they don't always tell us the truth.

This Sunday, we're launching a brand new series called Emotions: Getting a Grip of Your Heart and Mind. Week one is titled Deceptive Diagnosis, and we're going to look at what happens when our feelings fool us and what to do about it.

We'll be digging into Jeremiah 17:9–10, and discovering why God's perspective on our circumstances is always clearer than our own. Don't ass...

 Virtue & Vices

This week we are ending our series Virtue vs Vice and we are going to confront a silent but dangerous enemy of the soul: apathy. In the Parable of the Talents (Matthew 25:14–30), Jesus teaches that faithfulness is not about how much we have but about what we do with what we’ve been given. As we wait for Jesus’ return, will we act in obedience or bury what God entrusted to us? Join us as we explore The Virtue of Faithfulness vs. The Vice of Apathy.

 Virtue & Vices

This week we are discussing a calling that most of us feel unable to live up to: purity. Also a stumbling block that many of us would rather keep in the dark: lust.

How many of us have done the work to try and actually understand purity and lust, and how many of us understand the way God sees these things?

We see these two contrasting concepts brought up throughout scripture, we must acknowledge they are important, and how God views them.

Series: Virtues & Vices
Speaker: Aaron Mones

Self-control often gets framed as restriction, but Scripture tells a different story. In Titus 2, Paul shows us that self-control is a grace-formed virtue meant for every generation.

Indulgence distracts and enslaves, slowly pulling us off course without us noticing. But self-control gives direction, freeing us from our impulses so we can run toward what truly matters.

This message explores how grace trains our desires and reshapes our daily choices. Join us as we learn how the Spirit forms what the flesh never could.

SCRIPTURE PASSAGE: Ephesians 4:25–32

KEY VERSE: Ephesians 4:26-27 (ESV) - "Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger, 27 and give no opportunity to the devil."

BOTTOMLINE: Patience pauses. Anger pushes.

PROMO DESCRIPTION: Anger shows up fast, loud, and demanding. Patience moves slower, but it goes deeper.

In Ephesians 4, Paul doesn’t deny anger; he redirects it. This message explores why anger so easily takes control and how the Spirit forms patience instead.

When pressure rise...

Virtue & Vices

What do you do when someone else’s success quietly irritates you instead of inspiring you? James' letter to the church exposes how envy produces disorder while humility, shaped by the Spirit, creates peace.

This Sunday, we'll explore how comparison corrodes the heart and why humility is not weakness but wisdom from above. We’ll look at the difference between competing for recognition and resting in God’s grace.

If you’ve ever struggled to celebrate someone else’s win, this message is for you. Join us as we learn how the Spirit...
