Hope. We need it like we need oxygen. Without it, it’s hard to go on and with it, we can make it through the toughest of times. But what is real hope and where can you find a hope that lasts? Let’s have a conversation about what it means to have real hope.

Have questions about demons and forces of evil? Have questions about the occult and new age spirituality? Jeff sits down with Jon Thompson, seminary professor who teaches on warfare, for a conversation about evil, demonology, satan, and how the forces of evil can be at work in your daily life, and most importantly how to live in freedom.

Jon Thompson is the Senior Pastor of Sanctus Church — a multi-site church in the Greater Toronto Area and online — where he has served for 27 years. He holds a Master of Theological studies from Tyndale Seminary and a Doctorate of Missiology from Fuller Theological Seminary. Passionate about engaging seekers, skeptics, and believers about the Christian faith, Jon has authored three best-selling books: Convergence, Deliverance, and Perseverance.

So if evil is real, how exactly does it work? Better yet, how does it work in your life today? In this message, Jeff draws from scripture and classic theology to show how subtle and clever Satan can be in his activity. Once you recognize his strategies, you can defeat his strategies—in your life and in the world.

So is evil real? Is there a personal power of evil at work in the world? Is it a power that you as a human being can tap into, intentionally or unintentionally? And what happens when you do? We explore those questions and more in this message.

So how do miracles work? Why are some people healed and some not? Does God favour some‬ people and ignore others? Are miracles a sham or something that stopped happening in the 1st‬ century? Or maybe, they’re something else entirely.‬

So is life only what we can see, touch and experience, or is there more? Is there a supernatural side? Are ghosts real? Are there supernatural beings? Do miracles still happen? We’ll look at what the scripture has to say. When you look for control and power outside of God you risk venturing outside of God’s purpose. The greatest mistake you can make with the supernatural is to overestimate or underestimate its influence. We invite you to join Jeff Brodie as he looks more into the supernatural.

Our anxious culture is quick to argue, and it can spill over into our relationships. Every family has its share of fights—some are icy and distant, while others are fiery and intense. Conflict is inevitable in any relationship, and disagreements happen at all ages. It can get heated in the moment. But the real question is, how do we fight with the end in mind? How do we fight for each other instead of with each other? In this message, we’re going to look at a Biblical principle around how rules and relationships work, and how to build spiritual influence in the lives of our kids for the long haul.

We get it—kids today are carrying around a lot of anxiety, and let’s be honest, parenting isn’t exactly a breeze either. In fact, sometimes the adults aren’t okay. What if a reason many of us aren’t okay is an ancient and timeless one? What would it mean to look at the experience of the kids around us through a Biblical lens? In this message, we’ll dive into one of the biggest traps people fall into when they care deeply about a kid. More importantly, we’ll unpack how breaking free from this trap can completely shift the atmosphere in your home and transform the way you love and support the kids in your life.

Discipleship is a word you hear thrown around a lot in churches, but what does it mean? In this message we’re going to look at how this word is often misunderstood and how making disciples might be very different than most people think it is. In fact, if you’ve ever been interested in Jesus, you might realize that he’s more accessible than you think. 

Followers of Jesus are at their best‬‭ when they live a show and tell life.‬ When Jesus shares the great commission with all of his followers, he puts baptizing people right in the middle of it. Why? We’re going to be looking at often missed spiritual power of baptism, how it becomes a gift that keeps encouraging you throughout your life, and why it’s an incredible opportunity to show and tell others about how Jesus has changed you.
