First Love

Loving God with Heart, Soul, Mind and Strength

The First Love course is a six-week discipleship journey designed to help us cultivate wholehearted devotion to God in our everyday lives. Grounded in Jesus' command to love God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength, the course brings together Scripture, prayer practices, spiritual rhythms and self-evaluation to help participants slow down, realign divided affections, and integrate faith deeply into every dimension of daily life. Are you ready to pause, listen, and discover what it means to love God with your whole life?

Monday evenings from November 9 to December 14, 2026

Digital DETox

Learning to Live Freely and Lightly

Are you ready to trade the feeling of a scattered mind for a centred soul? In the Digital Detox course, we invite you to reclaim the fullness of life that Jesus promises. The course is designed to help you transform your relationship with technology and deepen your spiritual walk. In short, to learn to live freely and lightly. We will explore practical tools, spiritual rhythms, and deep reflection to help you cultivate presence, embrace healthy limits, and find the true joy of being connected to God and your community. Join us to build a sustainable Digital Rule of Life, a pathway to lasting clarity, focus, and abundant peace.

Runs for 8 weeks. Starts January 2026.
