In the Garden of Gethsemane, we witness Jesus in deep emotional anguish, wrestling with the weight of what is to come. His suffering reveals something profoundly human—and profoundly holy.
Jesus experienced suffering, just as we will encounter suffering as we follow Him. Like Him, we need to surrender continually to the will of the Father. But...

Consider the irony that the greatest symbol of Christianity is the cross, which speaks of glory and victory. Yet, the cross was a tool of punishment and extreme torture and death at the time of Jesus’ crucifixion. The cross represented the most sh...

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaSunday, November 19, 2023 - How to Experience Life's Greatest Satisfaction, Pastor Paul ValleeThe greatest joy and satisfaction in life can only be found in knowing God and knowing we have a God-given purpose. That purpose comes as we walk with Jesus. Doing that frees us from so much strife, stress, anxiety, disappointment, and discontentment.
What causes people to strive and labour in life? What is the compelling motivation that fuels so many people’s lives? Apart from God in our lives shaping our attitudes and desires, our sinful human nature is such that we are often driven by envy. How can we so categorically say that? The Scriptures teach us...

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaSunday, October 15, 2023 - A Sign of a Better Time Coming - Pastor Paul ValleeJohn 2:1-11
John is the only gospel writer who tells us about the wedding celebration at Cana. Jesus and his disciples were invited to a wedding where an amazing miracle took place. It is a significant story because it is the first miraculous sign that Jesus performed. This miracle came not just as a result of a great need but was the opportunity for Jesus to reveal a powerful truth and the nature of who He is to His disciples.
Jesus' miracles, as told in John's gospel, point to something significant about Jesus.

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaJuly 30, 2023 - The Road to God's DreamGenesis 37-50
Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream. He worked towards seeing that dream become a reality and was killed in pursuing that dream. What dream do you have today? Maybe your dream is buried beneath the heartache and heartbreak of life. Perhaps the barriers and obstacles to your God-given dream have robbed you of the joy of seeing it become a reality. Your strength may be waning. Oh, for an infusion of joy to sustain you on the journey. May you reclaim the joy from the confidence that God has given the dream and see i...

For those struggling and worried about the everyday things of life, the intensity of life continues to additional pressures that only make life more difficult, from the threat of wider-scale diseases, military conflicts, and the escalating costs of living.
Yet, as we read the words of Jesus, he promises us as believers a way of life that brings peace and joy, even in the most trying and difficult seasons of life. God wants us to rise above one of the great thieves of our lives: worry, which can lead to anxiety. So, what...

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaAugust 14, 2022 - Our Thoughts About God Shape our Life - Pastor Paul ValleeIsaiah 40
Far too many of God’s children feel alone, hurt and wonder where our Father is. Is there a feeling of unrest in your soul and the temptation to give up? We may wonder why God has not seen our plight and rescued us from our prison of pain. The only problem with surrendering to our emotions is that it will not bring the hope and comfort we passionately long for. We often fail to remember that our soul is the object of a great battle. We are under attack from unseen spiritual forces endeavouring to br...

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaApril 25, 2021 - A Living Hope in Troubled Times - Pastor Paul Vallee1 Peter 1:1-12
Simon Peter understood the grace of God because of how powerfully he himself had experienced it. Peter could easily recall his bravado, the night in which Jesus was betrayed and his own denial and absolute failure. Years later, Peter is far wiser and humbler can encourage and strengthen those walking in life’s most challenging moments. How do we handle the challenges and consequences of our own sinful choices? How do we handle those things that happen in our life that we have no control over? Disease or tragic accidents that leave us forever changed? Ho...

Living Stones Church, Red Deer, AlbertaApril 4, 2021 - Life Springs Forth: From Despair to Hope! (New Beginnings) - Pastor Paul ValleeLuke 24:1-49
Historically, after times of incredible evil, people often go back to life as if nothing ever happened. I’m sure for many Jewish people living during, and after Christ's resurrection, life continued with little or no change. In other words, these events were quickly dismissed, and nothing was learned from them. If we were to travel back to the crucifixion event, it was a defining moment that changed everything for the disciples, not just in the theological understanding, of sins being forgiven through Christ's sacrificial and substitutionary death, but that it was in the early di...

Jehoiakim is now under tribute and sends temple vessels as tribute to Babylon, and the young nobility of Judah, one of whom is Daniel, was taken into captivity in Babylon. Jehoiakim eventually rebels against Babylon, refusing to pay tribute in 597 B.C. Still, while Babylon is coming to address this revolt, Jehoiakim was removed as king by his officials and replaced by his son, Jehoiachin. A short siege occurs in which Jerusalem capitulates...

When the morning stars sang together, and the sons of God shouted for joy?” (Job 38:4, 7).These words of God to Job refocus Job's vision of existence, both his own and the whole of creation.
