SPIRITUAL GIFTS
Date: September 17, 2017 Scripture: 1 Corinthians 12:1-11 Speaker: Clint Nelson Spiritual gifts tend to either be absent or abused. Why is that? As we endeavour to be a Spirit-filled community, may we learn the place and practice of Spiritual gifts.
A CALL TO CONTINUE
Date: September 10, 2017 Scripture: 1 Cor. 11:23a Speaker: Clint Nelson We exist to CONTINUE the ministry of Jesus in our homes, church, city and world. What does it mean to continue the ministry of Jesus? The second part of the sermon has to do with a unique idea for Parksiders to consider of whether or not we add a second Sunday morning service.
TRUE COMMUNION
Date: September 3, 2017 Scripture: 1 Cor. 11:17-34 Speaker: Clint Nelson Our love for Jesus can't be private because it shows in how we love others. Christ's love for us wasn't an internal event - it was public and physical, which makes communion a reminder of this - that we are to love others in the way Jesus loves us (public example and physical acts). Christians don't just say our vows, we live them. Communion is a sacred space to renew our vows. Therefore, we are to examine our fidelity, repent of our sin, and then solemnly, gratefully and joyfully partake in communion. We come out on the other side more in love with Jesus - He is the faithful spouse that forgives our infidelity and is always working towards a bright future together.
Becoming A Volunteer at Parkside
Volunteer "... Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." MATTHEW 5:16b (NIV) Why do we serve? Because God served us. Because God asks us to serve. Because we were created to serve. Because we love to serve. Because others see the love of Jesus when we serve in His name. Because it produces more love and life in this world. Because we become who God made us to be through serving. Because it bears eternal fruit and rewards. Because it helps us to build relationships with others. Because it gets our attention off of ourselves. Because it glorifies God. Finding your fit Every Parksider has a place to serve.

A LIFE WORTH LIVING
Date: August 27, 2017 Scripture: Psalm 90:12 Speaker: Clint Nelson As we approach a new school year, we are reminded to consider path and pace to which we have been created and called.
BECOMING SOMEONE WORTH IMITATING
Date: August 20, 2017 Text: 1 Cor. 10:1-11:1 Speaker: Clint Nelson Approaching sin with arrogance or apathy will cost us and others. So put Jesus and others first in our dealing with sin and we'll be someone worth imitating all the way into eternity.
THE POWER OF LOVE
Date: August 6, 2017 Scripture: 1 Cor. 9 Speaker: Clint Nelson When we’re in love the rest is just details. When we’re in love with Jesus the things of this world are just details. It was the love of Jesus and the love Paul had for Jesus that made things like marriage and a good career easy to give up. Paul’s words to the church in Corinth call to our attention the object of our affection.
GARY BAKER
A close relative of a Parksider has been involved in the fight of his life. Gary was playing soccer in Vernon when he suddenly passed out on the feild. He was flown from Kelowna to Vancouver where his family was told devastating news that he had suffered a major brain aneurysm. It has been a year living away from their home to be by his side and it has taken a huge toll on the family. Gary has a long and difficult road ahead of him and we would like to rally together to support him and his family.
