Every week we want to bring to your attention expository, Gospel-centred sermons from pastors across Canada. We hope that you become familiar with some of the faithful ministers of the word in our nation. We also hope that you will be edified on your daily commute or whenever you listen to these messages. We lastly hope that you learn about the churches where these pastors minister, so that you can easily find Gospel-centered, expository churches in your region.
Jonathan Griffiths on Matthew 6:1–18 (Ottawa)
“Jesus knows our hearts well. He knows how much we naturally crave the praise and attention of others, and how easily we fall into religious hypocrisy in “practising acts of righteousness” to please people and not God. He teaches us the remedy to the problem, and gives us a compelling reason to avoid putting on a religious show. ”

Dan Thomson on John 12:1–11 (Charlottetown)
“This is a pivotal moment in Jesus’s ministry. Mary and Martha host a celebration banquet in Jesus’s honour after he miraculously raised Lazarus from the dead after 4 days. Mary sees the bigger picture of what’s to come as Jesus prepares to sacrifice Himself. Her response is humble, genuine and selfless. Judas rebukes and selfishly opposes her extravagant offering, revealing his true character. Listen as Pastor Dan exposits John 12:1-11 in a sermon entitled ‘Gospel Anointing’.”
Rob Godard on John 15:1–17 (Surrey)
“Living our preferred future, bearing fruit and proving ourselves to be His disciples so that we can live for God’s glory together.”
Clint Humfrey on Luke 8:4–15 (Calgary)
“As we struggle with discerning hypocrisy and credibility in the church, we are often puzzled. Why doesn’t everyone believe? People can hear the same sermon, or read the same bible, yet one believes and another does not. Why is this so? Jesus’ parable of the sower and the soils will tells us why.” Clint’s sermon falls into three parts:
1. The Sower
2. The Soils
3. The Fruitful Christian Life
