It’s impossible to be in any relationship for long without facing conflict. When boundaries are crossed, communication breaks down, or expectations go unmet, things can quickly turn tense or even toxic. In this message, we’ll explore Jesus’ guidance on how to have courageous conversations—the kind that can open doors for healing and restoration.

In part five of the That Ship Has Not Sailed series, titled “Boundaries,” we look at how setting healthy limits is essential for thriving relationships. Pastor Nathan unpacks how God’s design for order and structure helps us protect our time, energy, and hearts—so we can love others generously, serve wisely, and experience peace instead of chaos.

This week's message continues week four of That Ship Has Not Sailed, exploring parenting as both burden and blessing and calling us to build our homes with God at the center. We’ll consider a healthier posture for family life and practical gifts we can offer our kids. We’ll also hear insights from a panel of parents on adapting to each child’s temperament and integrating faith into everyday life. Let’s turn to the message.

Marriage is not a contract between two people. Marriage is a covenant relationship that God established for the flourishing of family and society, as well as a way of demonstrating the relationship God desires to have with us.

What makes a true friend—and how do we become one? In “Friend-Ship,” we explore biblical friendship that goes deeper than convenience or common interests: a friend who “sticks closer than a brother” (Proverbs 18:24). We’ll unpack practical steps—be friendly, be vulnerable, be generous, and don’t overdo it—plus insights from David & Jonathan (1 Samuel 18) and Jesus & Peter (John 21). If you’ve felt lonely or relationally stuck, this message offers hope, clarity, and next steps toward life-giving ...

Relationships are a gift—and sometimes a struggle. This week we kick of the first message in our "That Ship Has Sailed" series. We’re opening the Bible to find hope and healing for everyday relationships as we unpack how different temperaments affect our words and meanings, and how taking responsibility for our part can transform connection. Join us for Pastor Nathan's sermon and a special panel at the end of the message.

Celebrate 15 years of God’s faithfulness with us at Pathway! This Sunday, Andrew Friesen closes out our Forward Series with Part 4: Supporting Cast, as we look back with gratitude, look ahead with hope, and thank the many people God has used in our story—while asking how we can be that for others. Let’s celebrate what God has done and step into what’s next together.

Forward Together zooms out from solo heroics to celebrate the supporting cast—the friends, mentors, makers, givers, and quiet servants who move a community forward. We reframe generosity as contribution (time, skill, courage, resources), ask “What’s in my hand?”, and add two game-changing words to our prayers: through me. You’ll be invited to name your people, offer your gifts, and stretch for someone—trusting that when everyone does their part, there’s more than enough to advance the mission to...

Forward with Friends explores the importance of surrounding yourself with the right people as you move toward God’s calling. Looking at Moses, Aaron, and Hur in Exodus 17, we see how even strong leaders need support, and how the right circle can make the difference between victory and defeat. This message challenges us to choose our team wisely, invest in authentic relationships, and step into community—because moving forward was never meant to be done alone.

Pastor Nathan’s message Moving Forward launches the Forward series by showing that while change is hard, God does not want us stuck in the past. Drawing from Israel’s exodus, he teaches that moving forward means identifying where God is leading, leaving behind what holds us back, and trusting Him through the challenges of the “messy middle.” Moving forward is not just running from what was, but stepping with faith toward God’s promises, confident that He goes before us and stands behind us.

Part 3 of the Made for Mondays series examines why work matters—and why rest matters too. We'll see how Sabbath rest and Jesus’ declaration that “the Sabbath was made for man” reset our reason for work by reminding us God holds the outcome.

This week we explore how work—something that takes up a third of our lives—isn’t just a grind to endure but a sacred calling under God. Drawing from Colossians 3:23–24, we see that our jobs, whether in the office, at home, or in unseen places, become meaningful when we work “as unto the Lord.” Rather than striving for human approval or letting work define our worth, we’re invited to find our identity in Christ, align with His calling, and embrace each assignment as an act of worship.

What if your daily work is more meaningful than you think? In this first message from the Made for Mondays series—where we explore God’s surprising story about work—Jeff Brody unpacks our “original job description” in Genesis: stewarding, creating and multiplying in God’s image, making every honest task an act of worship. He shows how sin’s “thorns and thistles” pit purpose against paycheck, then points to Christ’s redemptive power as the hope that brings lasting meaning to even our toughest wor...

In You Can't Stand on Sand, we explore the crucial truth that our foundation ultimately determines our future.

In this message, Pastor Nathan opens Proverbs 9 to contrast two rival voices—Wisdom, who builds, blesses and brings life, and Folly, whose seductive shortcuts end in ruin.

In this final message of the “Christian-ISH” series, Pastor Nathan challenges us to move beyond a half-hearted, “ish” faith and embrace genuine transformation in Christ. He reminds us that true faith is evidenced by the fruit of the Spirit and humble dependence on Jesus, not mere outward religiosity.

In part two of our Christian-ish series, Pastor Nathan shares a powerful message called Small Choices. It's often not the big decisions, but the small compromises—the ones we justify or ignore—that quietly pull us away from God’s best. In this message, we’re challenged to examine where selective obedience might be creeping into our lives, and how full surrender opens the door to God’s blessing.

Many people around the world identify as Christians, but calling yourself a Christian and truly following Jesus are not always the same thing. If we're not careful, we can slip into a version of faith that focuses more on appearances than on a genuine relationship with Jesus. In this series from Life.Church called Christian-ISH, we’ll confront some of the ways we’re tempted to compromise an authentic faith in Christ.

In this episode titled “Finding Your Purpose,” Pastor Nathan unpacks 1 Peter 4:8–11 and explains how loving without expectation, welcoming outsiders with genuine care, and offering our unique talents to serve can lead us to the meaningful, life-changing calling God designed for each of us.
