Light The Way

The Youth group will be volunteering at Regeneration Outreach in Brampton!

Everyone is invited to volunteer! If you are a student, this is a great opportunity to get community service hours.

We will be volunteering once a month for one year. Each shift is 4 hours long (12-4 pm) and will take place on Saturday afternoons at the Regeneration Marketplace & Thrift Store. If you are interested please fill out the form linked in our bio!

Repost of an absolutely spot-on breakdown by our brother in Christ • “Jesus is not a conservative or progressive,” says people. But does that mean Jesus is apolitical? Does that mean that Jesus did not impart us clear instructions on how to conduct “tikkun olam,” and spread the Gospel’s material liberation along with its spiritual salvation? Yes, Jesus wasn’t conservative or progressive - he was revolutionary. He set aside these human labels and petty rivalries and replaced them with justice, peace, reconciliation, and universal, unconditional radical love for all marginalized, downtrodden, and oppressed peoples in all of humanity.

Repost from , highly relevant to LTW coordinator ’s discussion of the pluriversality and radically universal implications of the Pentecost at last night’s prayer meeting! • Quote from “Acts: A Theological Commentary on the Bible.”
Pentecost was not a colonizing act. It was not a means to create sameness out of diversity, or commonality out of culture. Rather, Pentecost was a move of the Divine Spirit to enter spatial reality with a Love so deep and so vast and so wide. It was this very Love that set powerful people free of their need for power over others, while empowering marginalized people with a boldness to resist the powers and authorities that oppress. This is grace. This is what Pentecost is all about.

Far too many Pentecostal Christians chase after a “right” experience in which a person manifests the “correct” evidence of Spirit-indwelling. They attempt to control how the Spirit moves and operates. Not only is this dangerous theology, but it can also be an example of power over people rather than the power that brings people liberation. It quickly becomes colonizing theology that creates the very thing that we need liberating from.

This Pentecost Sunday, let’s give up our need for power/control over others by practicing neighbourly love. We do this by ensuring no person is overlooked. Micah 6:8 is a good litmus test: doing justice, showing kindness, and walking in humility. May we not discriminate; may we do this without demanding any conditions.

Maybe this is what it truly means to be empowered. Maybe this is what the “Spirit-filled life” looks like in practice.
