Strange New World
"How thinkers and activists redefined identity and sparked the sexual revolution."
As I have traveled the world, I have often hired tour guides to lead me through unfamiliar locations. Their expertise has always proven helpful in explaining what I am seeing and experiencing. And in much the same way, Strange New World is essentially a guided tour to modern times. Trueman acts as a wise and trusted guide to a culture that has become increasingly uncomfortable and unfamiliar. I highly recommend you take the tour.”

Living Grace Small Group
(limited to 15 participants)
The last few years have been mentally and emotionally challenging for many individuals and families. We are excited to offer a 16 week journey (2 - 8 week segments) through various topics related to mental health. Ultimately the goal is to give God the glory by becoming more like Him and growing in our identity and life in Christ.
“Living Grace is a resource designed to provide healthy solutions for your hear and mind. In each chapter, you will find opportunities to transform your daily life. Both Scripture and science will give you a new perspective and practical tools. These will help you address the challenges that come with living with any mental health difficulty or disorder.” From the Living Grace Textbook.
The curriculum is not a professional therapy resource and is not intended to treat, diagnose, cure or replace mental health professional care and/or medical treatments. Likewise, the Living Grace Small Group is not intended to replace people’s existing mental health professional care but rather to address some of the issues in a grace filled atmosphere while looking into God’s Word.
Presently, we are looking to meet on Thursday evenings from 7:00 – 8:15 p.m. at Melfort Evangelical Covenant Church.
