A Spark of the Divine 38:34

5d ago38:34

38:34

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis We all likely know someone who has a knack for making people feel seen and valuable. I shared last week about a youth leader named Brian who could do it so effectively. Author David Brooks calls these kinds of people “Illuminators”. They have a way of noticing things in our lives that we want noticed. Whether to celebrate, to l…

Invisible 43:53

12d ago43:53

43:53

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis There’s a profound idea, a metaphor, that has captivated us: the notion that within each of us, there exists a spark of the divine. Can you imagine how different our interactions would feel if we could see something sacred reflected in the faces of those we encountered every day? Sadly, that isn’t a common occurrence. Though we…

Taking Water to a Thirsty World 44:52

19d ago44:52

44:52

Speaker: Vince Klassen We've embarked on a transformative journey, asking ourselves: What isn't working in traditional religion for us? Many of us have felt the weight of an I-centric approach that creates barriers rather than bridges. It keeps the spiritual Water within us, locking it away instead of sharing it with the world. We’ve decided: We wi…

We Don’t Build Walls to Keep People Out 39:12

26d ago39:12

39:12

Speaker: Vince Klassen Throughout history, faith communities have constructed boundaries—both tangible and intangible—that define who belongs and who does not. These barriers, whether they are the physical walls of a church or the unspoken criteria for acceptance, often determine who feels welcomed and who feels excluded. For over two decades, Frie…

Turned Off 38:56

1M ago38:56

38:56

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis If 100 random people were asked what the world needs most right now, very few would likely say traditional religion is the answer. Sadly, this expression of spirituality has become the antithesis of hope for our world. So why are you interested in or are a part of Friends Church? What is it that Friends Church promotes that fee…

Hope 34:51

1M ago34:51

34:51

Speaker: Vince Klassen This summer, we’ve immersed ourselves in the art of peacemaking, learning how to shift from divisive “I against them” dynamics to more healthy “We” and “Win-Win” interactions. We see this as a higher level of spirituality inspiring us to healthier way of relating. But now, you might be wondering: Can these new skills truly tr…

Peace Talks 40:04

2M ago40:04

40:04

Speaker: JEff Jarvis We likely all have someone with whom we need to have a long-overdue conversation. Things were likely done and said at some point that bruised the relationship and now there’s distance, awkwardness, maybe hurt. Sure, it’s necessary sometimes to set up boundaries, limit exposure, or even walk away from the relationship. Often tho…

Can Justice Lead to Peace? 32:04

2M ago32:04

32:04

Speaker: Vince Klassen A few weeks ago, I shared the powerful story of a woman who bravely escaped an abusive relationship after enduring years of pain. Her journey was marked by incredible strength and resilience, ultimately leading her to leave a situation that no longer served her well-being. The focus of her story wasn’t about vilifying her abu…

Spicy Conversations 23:05

2M ago23:05

23:05

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Over the Summer I’ve witnessed and participated in a number of what I’ll call “spicy” conversations. People with strong opinions weighing in on tricky topics like the US political race, or the female olympic boxer with an XY chromosome – even Calgary’s local water restrictions. What’s sad to me is not that the conversations hap…

Peacemakers Part 3 31:39

2M ago31:39

31:39

Speaker: Vince Klassen Have you noticed that peace seems increasingly elusive in our world today? The number of concurrent conflicts is staggering—more than I’ve ever witnessed in my lifetime. It feels like disconnection is growing, and people are quicker to anger and confrontation than at any other time I can recall. Families seem to be experienci…

26:13

Speaker: Vince Klassen I recently attended a dinner party that was an absolute delight—great company, incredible food, the works. Yet, amidst the laughter and engaging conversation, something struck me profoundly. It was during a discussion that veered unexpectedly into deeper waters, where one person began recounting a chapter of their life fraugh…

Blessed are the Peacemakers 30:18

3M ago30:18

30:18

Speaker: Vince Klassen Throughout history, individuals have been catalysts for peace, shaping the course of nations and communities alike. But this call to peacemaking isn’t confined to the grand stage of geopolitics; it resonates deeply within our personal lives and everyday interactions. Where are we creating unnecessary wars in our daily encount…

Courage – Stoicism pt. 2 37:23

3M ago37:23

37:23

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Did you know that the Stoics considered courage to be one of the most important virtues you can develop? To have the ability to do something that frightens you. What situations do you quietly avoid because of fear? The other day I saw a guy being a jerk to a store clerk. I wanted to say something but I didn’t. I was afraid. For…

Sour Soothers and the Golden Mean 43:09

3M ago43:09

43:09

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis As a kid I loved “sour soothers”. That sour, gummy candy that made you pucker when you put one in your mouth. I loved those things! One time I bought a bunch of them and ate them all within probably an hour. What I didn’t realize until it was too late was the citric acid was burning my tongue. By the time they were all gone, my…

“Being There” – Learning From Yoga 29:38

3M ago29:38

29:38

Speaker: Vince Klassen We all have profound, maybe even transcendent, experiences—whether it’s the birth of a child, a moment of awe in nature, or a powerful physical sensation. Yet, when we try to share these moments, we often face blank stares and polite nods. It’s frustrating and disconnecting when others don’t feel the same intensity we did in …

Clinging

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Isn’t it crazy how, when life takes an unexpected turn and the outcome is not what we wanted, we can experience all kinds of emotional and mental turmoil: fear, anger, frustration, the list goes on? When was the last time you had a bit of meltdown after life conspired against your expectations? Throughout the ages, Buddhist mys…

Finding Calm in an Overwhelming World Lessons from Fundamentalism

4M ago

—

Speaker: Trevor Dreher We live in a world brimming with endless choices. Everyday, we face a relentless barrage of decisions, big and small: What should I eat? Should I go to the gym? How much should I be saving? The sheer volume of choices can be overwhelming and exhausting. Many of us at Friends Church know this feeling all too well but the idea …

Avoiding the Spinning Blade of Death

4M ago

—

Speaker: Vince Klassen In our workshop collective, I teach a class designed to help people master the tablesaw, a formidable tool with a 10-inch blade spinning faster than the speed of sound. This “spinning blade of death” can understandably be intimidating, especially for beginners. However, the key to safely using a tablesaw lies in focusing on s…

Cause and Effect Exploring the principle of Karma

4M ago

—

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis It’s human nature, isn’t it, to try to explain why certain things happen in our lives? To hope that in the end, life is fair? We want to believe that good will be rewarded and evil will be punished. It seems every religious system has its way of explaining how this happens. In the Christian tradition heaven and hell have served…

The Spiritual Purpose of Overcoming our Relation$hit 38:06

5M ago38:06

38:06

Speaker: Vince Klassen We’ve been exploring how to “Love our Neighbour”. While it was easy for Jesus to say, it’s a bit trickier to put into practice. To truly love people skilfully, we must overcome our own relational challenges. This means learning to regulate ourselves and stay within our Window of Tolerance so we can understand our own and othe…

Secrets of Secure People 53:08

5M ago53:08

53:08

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis & Vince Klassen Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve discussed two forms of insecure attachment: Avoidant and Anxious. Two common relational patterns that, when unaware, can create some Relation$hit. This Sunday though, we’re going to study a third style of attachment that has a much more positive effect on relationships: Secur…

Anxious Attachers 55:00

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Join us this Sunday for week three of our Relation$hit series. We’re exploring the inner world of those who Anxiously attach to others. These are the ones who have highly sensitive threat centres. For anxious attachers, one particular look, text, delayed response, or piece of negative feedback can set off internal alarms – fear…

Loving Those Who Walk Alone 35:54

5M ago35:54

35:54

Speaker: Vince Klassen This week on our “Relation$hit” series, we’re delving into how to love others in a way that truly connects. Our focus this week might seem counterintuitive: we’re exploring a group of people who often navigate the world alone. They don’t seem to need much from anyone, projecting an image of independence and strength. Yet, ben…

Increasing our Capacity 31:13

6M ago31:13

31:13

Speaker: Vince Klassen Jesus once said, “Love your neighbor.” It’s a simple yet profound teaching, but it’s not always easy to put into practice. Loving others—no matter who they are—requires both skill and the capacity to do that skill – the willingness, the motivation and the energy. This week, we’re going to focus on building our capacity for lo…

Toxic Faith 38:06

6M ago38:06

38:06

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Throughout history, religious beliefs have been a double-edged sword, offering solace and guidance while also igniting conflicts and division. They’ve inspired acts of compassion, charity, and unity, yet have also fueled wars, persecution, and discrimination. In this final week of our current series, “What Ends Wars”, we’re goi…

Would Humility Create Peace? 27:04

6M ago27:04

27:04

Speaker: Vince Klassen In recent weeks, we’ve delved into various scenarios shedding light on the What Ends Wars. From realizing that peace seldom emerges solely from victory to grappling with the internal battles we face. This week, we’re steering toward a slightly unconventional path. We’re set to scrutinize a deeply ingrained belief prevalent in…

Spiritual Responsibilities 40:47

40:47

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Watching the innocent casualties of war is hard. People being forced to flee with very few belongings, often grieving the loss of loved ones. The suffering is hard to imagine. It’s always comforting to see countries and organizations willing to help step in and offer support in times of crisis. There’s something that feels so r…

An Invitation to Freedom (Easter) 35:22

6M ago35:22

35:22

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis & Vince Klassen If you think about the foes you’ll wage war against in your lifetime, none of them will likely be as powerful and potentially as immobilizing as the voice(s) within you. You’re likely well acquainted with this voice. Sometimes we refer to it as our “Dark Passenger”. It can remind you of the ways you’ve screwed u…

Raise All Boats 47:17

7M ago47:17

47:17

Speaker: Vince Klassen After our discussion last week about how victory doesn’t necessarily lead to peace, we’ve been feeling somewhat disheartened. So, how do we actually foster peace? Our current cultural mindset heavily emphasizes victory – whether it’s a particular group, ideology, or even ourselves prevailing – as the path to peace. So, it’s c…

37:09

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis Cathy and I have been married for over 33 years. You would think by now that we would never argue. Lol. There seems to be this subconscious moment, in the midst of our arguments, when I begin to imagine what it will feel like when I “win” the argument. When I hit that sweet spot and prove my point. Do you do this? I think to my…

Speaker: Trevor Dreher Recently, I heard a tale of an affluent elderly couple with a longstanding desire to witness the vibrant colors of autumn out east. Despite having the financial means to indulge in this dream without any repercussions, they consistently postponed the trip over the years, citing its potential cost. In truth, they could have un…

Developing a Pleasure Ethic 42:42

7M ago42:42

42:42

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis We’ve spent the last two weeks explaining where much of the toxic messaging around pleasure has come from – at least within the Christian tradition. Hint: we don’t think it comes from the bible. We’ve also made the case that pleasure needs to be accessed and celebrated in our lives. However, this raises questions, and likely it…

Vitality through Physical Pleasure 37:55

8M ago37:55

37:55

Speaker: Vince Klassen Pleasure can be a complex subject, especially when delving into the realm of physical pleasure, which may make some uncomfortable to discuss. Questions often arise, such as, when we talk about physical pleasure, are we exclusively referring to sex? The answer is yes, but it encompasses much more than just that, although sex i…

In Pursuit of Vitality 40:05

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis “Everyone dies, but not everyone truly lives” ~ William Wallace Over the years I’ve had a conflicted relationship with pleasure. Don’t get me wrong, I love to experience it as much as the next person. Sometimes though, I’ve struggled to prioritize it. Too much to do, and perhaps a little guilt about spending the time or money o…

39:05

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis “When we talk about God we actually talk about ourselves only with a megaphone.” Karl Barth Over the last month, we’ve been exploring different conceptions of God that have been held throughout the ages. Whether that was God as superbeing or God acting through people as “Agents”, or, perhaps God/Divine as hyperbeing. We hoped t…

Some really important questions start to bubble up: How do we pick our conception(s) of God? What if we pick the wrong conception? When you come…

They walked into the sanctuary with me and I pointed out all the beautiful works of art on the ceiling and the person’s jaw was almost on the floor. They were struck by the beauty of the space and in reverence they said “Holy sh$t this place is beautifu…

Speaker: Jeff Jarvis A couple of Sundays ago I shared some stories of my disappointment and disillusionment with God when important prayers went unanswered. My Superbeing conception of God led me to believe that He/She/It was capable of coming through – but for some reason didn’t. How is one supposed to reconcile these heart-breaking moments? For 1…

A desperation that can have us crying out for help, especially in the form of prayer. Asking/pleading for God, the universe, whatever may be out there – to intervene somehow on behalf of a loved one.
