Avizandum with Pastor John Munro

What’s Your Rush?

Everyone seems to be in a tremendous rush. We get frustrated if we have to wait a moment, or if someone doesn't text back instantly. This impatience can even extend to our approach to worship. Today, allow John to challenge you as you reconsider the rush!

Stop Going to Church!

Fewer and fewer people attend church on a regular basis. Why is that? And why is this trend so concerning? Join John as he reflects on the reality and implications for our society, communities, and lives.

Be Strong and Courageous

Are you looking forward to the new year, or are you worried about what may happen? In His Word, God has given us a clear message for times of uncertainty and transition. Join John for a New Year’s challenge.

Boxing Day

In much of Europe, the day after Christmas is a holiday, known as Boxing Day (UK) or the second day of Christmas. Join John for memories of Boxing Day and how you might celebrate this year wherever you are!

Peace

One of the beautiful words of Christmas is "peace." In our world of conflict, division and war, we desperately need peace, but it seems elusive. Yet the promise of peace still stands, offered by the magnificent Prince of Peace. This Christmas, will you be a peacemaker?

The Mystery of Christmas

At the heart of Christmas is a beautiful mystery, as the Almighty God becomes flesh. How do you deal with mystery? Do you always have to understand every nuance, every detail? Today John brings a Christmas challenge to wonder and worship.

Real Questions, Real Truth

We’re excited to introduce a new YouTube channel for students, titled Real Questions, Real Truth(youtube.com/@realquestionsrealtruth), as John sits down with a high school host to answer the tough personal and spiritual questions that high school students are facing. Join John as he shares the background and opportunity.

Only Jesus

Sometimes people may sound quite spiritual when they avoid debate or conflict by saying, "Well, I just love Jesus." Do we think that Jesus is somehow softer, warmer, or more forgiving? It's essential to understand who the Lord Jesus is.

Thanksgiving and Suffering

In a few days those of us in the United States will celebrate Thanksgiving. But in the midst of our troubled world it might seem difficult to give thanks. Learn why having a God-centered perspective makes all the difference.

Israel and Hamas

Jews have experienced unparalleled hatred for thousands of years. And today we may be shocked at the protests throughout the world against Israel and for Hamas. What are we as the people of God to do?
