Content

February 07, 2021 18:00 - 29 minutes - 20.5 MB

From our Philippians series. In the final week of our conversation in the book of Philippians, Bill Dogterom leads us through Philippians 4:4-13 where we learn the secret to living a life of contentment.   For more information, visit canopy.church.

Citizens of Heaven

January 31, 2021 18:00 - 33 minutes - 23 MB

From our Philippians series. Paul’s letter to the church in Philippi was written to a group of people living in a Roman colony with all of the privileges and responsibilities of Roman citizens. Yet, Paul reminds them in Philippians 3:15-21 that, when they bowed their knees to King Jesus, their citizenship changed. Their country of birth was no longer their homeland, but their citizenship was now in heaven, and they were now called to live out that new identity as a redemptive presence in a l...

The Door and the Way

January 24, 2021 18:00 - 40 minutes - 27.9 MB

From our Philippians series. The question, what does it mean to be Christian, is one that the Church has wrestled with from the very beginning. Paul dealt with it directly in many of his letters, including here in Philippians 3:1-11. Whenever anyone tried to add on to the Gospel, Paul was always quick to remind the Church that Jesus is everything. He is the One who qualifies us, and only in placing our full confidence in Him (boasting in Him) will we find abundant life. For more information...

God is at Work

January 17, 2021 18:00 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MB

From our Philippians series. God is always working salvation into us so that He can work it out of us. Philippians 2:12-18 shows us how we can partner with Him in that work and, in doing so, experience the abundant life that He wants to bring to and through us. For more information, visit canopy.church.

The Mind of Christ

January 10, 2021 18:00 - 30 minutes - 21 MB

From our Philippians series. After a heavy week in light of events at the US Capitol on January 6, it becomes all the more important that God’s people take a hard look at ourselves and ask if we are genuinely seeking to embody the values of our King and the Kingdom that He would bring among and through us. Philippians 2:1-11, shows us that chief among these values is humility. For more information, visit canopy.church.

No Matter What

January 03, 2021 18:00 - 34 minutes - 23.7 MB

From our Philippians series. In Philippians 1:27-30, Paul leans in close to a church he dearly loves to deliver what he thinks may well be his final instructions: “Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the Gospel…” The call here is to seek to embody the example of our King, to live by the power of His Spirit, and to do it all together as one. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Let There Be Love

December 20, 2020 18:00 - 39 minutes - 27.4 MB

From our Advent series. In the final week of Advent, we look at the greatest of the Christmas themes: love. Via Mary’s story in Luke 1:26-38, we learn that we are not only recipients of God’s gift of love but are also conduits of it. To receive this gift is to become participants in His great story of love and restoration.  For more information, visit canopy.church.

Let There Be Joy

December 13, 2020 18:00 - 50 minutes - 35 MB

From our Advent series. The theme for the third week of Advent is joy. This week, we take a look at Elizabeth and Zechariah in Luke 1:5-25 to see what joy means and where it comes from. True joy is a gift of miraculous provision, enduring presence, and inclusion in the story that God is writing in the world. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Let There Be Peace

December 06, 2020 18:00 - 32 minutes - 22 MB

From our Advent series. In the second week of Advent, we consider the true nature of peace, of the “shalom” God promises to His people. In Luke 2:1-20, we see that those people to whom God offered peace, who were the first to hear the Good News that Jesus had come, were shepherds who had no imagination for what peace could actually mean. In other words, Jesus came to broaden for them, and for all of us, the horizon of the possible, and bring us into a new reality defined by His shalom. For ...

Let There Be Hope

November 29, 2020 18:00 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MB

From our Advent series. In this first week of Advent, we give weight and substance to a fundamental Christian word that, in modern culture, has been drained of much of its power: hope. As the story of Anna and Simeon (in Luke 2:22-40) reminds us, to be a people of hope is to live anchored to the reality of the Kingdom of God and the King who has come and is coming back for us.

Christ the King

November 22, 2020 18:00 - 30 minutes - 20.6 MB

From our Philippians series. On this Christ the King Sunday, Bill Dogterom leads in a conversation, out of Philippians 2:5-11, about what it means to be citizens of a Kingdom whose King conquers by dying, not killing. Jesus’ kingship—and, therefore, His kingdom—is defined by humility and sacrifice because He knows that this is the only way to save the world. For more information, visit canopy.church.

To Live for Christ

November 15, 2020 08:00 - 28 minutes - 19.9 MB

From our Philippians series. What is your purpose? How do you find out what you’re here to do? Philippians 1:15-26 reminds us that discerning our purpose is first and foremost about Jesus. “To live is Christ.” When He is the center of our focus and the object of our desire, we will live a life of purpose. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Cursus Honorum

November 08, 2020 18:00 - 13 minutes - 9.03 MB

From our Philippians series. Todd invites us, through Philippians 2:5-11, to consider the true path to greatness. Where most of the world is defined by climbing a ladder to greatness, Jesus took the opposite approach. He started at the top and descended in order to rescue those at the bottom. This is what it means to be truly great. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Fans or Followers?

October 25, 2020 17:00 - 30 minutes - 20.7 MB

Our favorite Sunday of the month is always the last Sunday when we join our community with A Place for Worship Church from Fullerton for a big family gathering. This week, Pastor Sheridan McDaniel takes us to John 6:25-59 to share his heart that we become followers of Jesus and not just fans. This means that we commit to Him no matter what, even when He says things that are hard for us to hear and leads us to places we’d rather not go. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Faithful to Complete It

October 11, 2020 17:00 - 33 minutes - 22.7 MB

From our Philippians series. We start our study in the book of Philippians with a bit of historical context to help us understand the circumstances that gave rise to this unique letter and to see how those circumstances are not all that different from our own. When everything that can go wrong has gone wrong, when the world is dark and difficult and confusing, when conflict arises in the church, even then Jesus is building His Church, and He will finish what He started. For more information...

Saved into Relationship for the Sake of the World

October 04, 2020 17:00 - 20 minutes - 14.3 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. Mike Rigdon reminds us, via Mark 6:7-9 and other passages that Jesus didn’t simply save us as individuals but saved us into a community into a family. And, this family exists to embody and so demonstrate the radically sacrificial love of Jesus to the world. For more information, visit canopy.church.

God's Glory is Our Canopy

September 20, 2020 17:00 - 18 minutes - 12.7 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. Numbers 9:15-23 reminds us that the presence of God is everything to the people of God. As a community, we want to grow in our capacity to seek and respond to the Spirit of God at work in and through our community.  For more information, visit canopy.church.

Come, Let Us Worship

August 30, 2020 17:00 - 20 minutes - 13.9 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. God is on the throne. In an anxious world, it is important that God’s people continually remind themselves of that truth and live in light of it. Psalm 95:1-5 calls us to worship and, in doing so, to remember and align ourselves to the reality that our God reigns. For more information, visit canopy.church.

The Transforming Love of God

August 23, 2020 17:00 - 29 minutes - 20.4 MB

The whole Canopy family joins with A Place for Worship Church in Fullerton for a conversation out of John 8:1-11 about the love of God that meets us where we are but doesn’t leave us where we are. For more information, visit canopy.church.

For This Very Purpose

August 16, 2020 17:00 - 15 minutes - 10.6 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. Chris Wienand reminds us, via Romans 9:14-18, that God is in control of every moment of history and that He raises up His people, in and through difficult wilderness seasons, for the sake of bringing grace, mercy, power, and hope to the world. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Sweeter than Honey

August 09, 2020 17:00 - 24 minutes - 16.6 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. God has not left us to navigate life in the wilderness on our own. He has provided us His Word, His self-revelation, to guide us. And, in Psalm 19, David reminds us of the beauty, value, and usefulness of that gift. For more information, visit canopy.church.

The Unhurried Life

July 26, 2020 17:00 - 14 minutes - 9.99 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. This global wilderness season has revealed to us that our restlessness and hurry is not as much about the world around us but about the world within us. Bill Dogterom shows us, through Matthew 11:25-30, that following Jesus sometimes means that we have to slow down in order to keep up with God. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Rest

July 19, 2020 17:00 - 22 minutes - 15.8 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. One of the most profound and important things that God taught His people in the wilderness was how to rest. They came from a restless empire where the lifestyle was defined by a relentless pursuit of more, but God called them to be different. So, in Exodus 20:8-11, He gave them the gift of Sabbath, a day to limit productivity and find rest and life in Him. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Let Us Draw Near

July 12, 2020 17:00 - 20 minutes - 14.2 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. How do we keep our grip on the reality of who Jesus is and what He’s done and is doing in our lives in the middle of trying circumstances? Hebrews 10:19-25 provides us with four calls that help us persevere in seasons of trial and disorientation. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Christ is All

July 05, 2020 17:00 - 22 minutes - 15.8 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. Simply walking through the wilderness does not guarantee that we will end up more free. If we want to arrive at greater freedom and fuller life, there is only one Way. Following Jesus closely, finding our very lives and existence in Him, as Colossians 3:1-4 shows us, is the only path to freedom. For more information, visit canopy.church.

We Want to See the Kingdom

June 21, 2020 17:00 - 23 minutes - 16 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. The Kingdom of God is available to us here and now, even in the wilderness, through the Holy Spirit that God has given to those who are in Christ. John 3:1-8  invites us to live into this truth. We want to see the Kingdom come in our lives, our community, and our world, and that only happens as we learn to live empowered by the Holy Spirit. For more information, visit canopy.church.

New Habits for the Wilderness

June 14, 2020 17:00 - 17 minutes - 11.7 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. The wilderness is where God teaches us how to live free, but He does not do this work without our cooperation and effort. As part of our training, He gives us new practices and habits through which He can train us toward freedom. In Matthew 4:1-11, we see how Jesus partnered with His Father in the wilderness. For more information, visit canopy.church.

Single-Minded Worship and Radical Justice

June 07, 2020 17:00 - 23 minutes - 16.4 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. God set His people free not simply for their own sake but so that He could save the world through them. Exodus 19:1-8 shows us that He redeemed them to be a conspicuous people, to be a kingdom of priests and a holy nation, a people who embodied His values in the world. This included a call to radical justice. For more information, visit canopy.church.

The Point in the Wilderness

May 31, 2020 17:00 - 14 minutes - 9.94 MB

From our Finding Freedom in the Wilderness series. Via Exodus 3:1-15, Bill Dogterom reminds us that, if God is at work in the wilderness, we don’t want to waste it. So, rather than simply looking for a way out of the wilderness, we ought to be intentional about asking God what He might be up to (what’s the point in the wilderness?) and how we can partner with Him in that work. For more information, visit canopy.church.
