Recorded at The Pipe Shop Venue in North Vancouver. 

Where's Cap Located? Session 3

The third in a series of consoling, challenging and enlivening conversations led by Kim and Todd about what we think it means to be a Christian today and how the way we hold our faith has implications for our church community and our daily lives.
This third session focuses on questions about belonging  - what does it mean to be 'a church', what does it mean to "belong to a church" in a time such as this.
This session was recorded on January 9, 2025.

Where is Cap Located? Session 2

The second session in a series of consoling, challenging and enlivening conversations led by Kim and Todd about what we think it means to be a Christian today and how the way we hold our faith has implications for our church community and our daily lives.
 
This time we consider what it looks like to pass our Christian faith on to others, especially (but not exclusively) to the generation that comes after us. As we consider the theological, cultural, and political landscape in which we find ourselves, these evenings are intended to help us articulate and embody our faith in Jesus. 
 
This session was recorded on Thursday November 28, 2024.

Where Are We Located? Session 1

The first of a series of consoling, challenging and enlivening conversations led by Kim and Todd about what we think it means to be a Christian today and how the way we hold our faith has implications for our church community and our daily lives.
In this first session, we hope to address some of the questions that have been posed:
God doesn’t change, but over the years my Christian faith and beliefs have changed. Is that OK?
How do I instill faith in my kids in ways that are intentional, invitational and not harmful?
Is there a “Christian” view on various hot-button topics like abortion, or medical assistance in dying?
Where is CapChurch theologically in relation to other churches on the North Shore?
Answers to these questions come from articulating what we think is core to Christian faith, what we are meant to hold onto more loosely, and how we integrate these things with our daily lives.
 
This first session was held on Wednesday October 23, 2024.

The Great Reversal

The first All Church of 2025 and the start of our new series in the Gospel of Luke. This Sunday Kim helps us consider Mary’s revolutionary song in Luke 1:46-55.
“This is the Great Reversal: the last in line put at the head of the line, and the so-called first ending up last.”
Luke 13:30
(The Message)
 
This Winter and Spring, join us for a leisurely walk through the Gospel of Luke as we pay attention to the many places in Luke’s gospel where the Kingdom of God breaks in and we find our expectations of who is ‘powerful’ and who is ‘weak’ are overturned.
