When the apostle Paul wrote to the believers in Corinth, he had to confront them on certain behaviour issues in the church. It turns out that one man in the church had begun a sexual relationship with his step-mother – and the church, instead of confronting this man on his sin, were seeing the relationship…
Over the last three years while Trinity Central has been establishing and growing in Vancouver, we have seen significant times or breakthrough and direction at our prayer meetings. We meet to pray together every month, and three times a year set aside a full week for prayer. They are important times, not just ‘optional ad…
This weekend we have a great opportunity to learn more about the new Toronto church plant which Trinity Central is supporting. Toward the end of 2014, Rhys spent some time with Jeremy Simpkins, Jeremy Little and Jamie Aplin as the team explored plans for a new church plant in Toronto. We’re so excited as a church…
For the past three years, Trinity Central has been a steadily growing community of believers meeting together to worship God and make Him known in Vancouver. From the small beginnings of a handful of people meeting in a home, we’ve seen incredible growth. At yesterday’s anniversary morning we were around 120 people joined together in…
Four years ago six of us were sitting around a table in a pizza restaurant in London, England, planning and praying for a church plant in Vancouver. Three years ago, some fifteen of us were gathering in our front room to pray and talk about what it means to be a church. Fast forward to…

Over the past two posts we’ve talked about God’s revelation of Himself as Father, and the wonder of His limitlessness as our Father in Heaven. The next phrase that Jesus taught us to pray is one that we can often skip over, as if it were simply an introductory comment. But we should pause when…
At the start of our Week of Prayer, we considered that in coming to God in prayer we come to a Father who loves us. That is how God has chosen to reveal Himself to us, and that is the nature of the relationship that He invites us into. He adopts us into His family through…
We’re excited to be starting a week of prayer together as a church – during these weeks God speaks to us as a church family and often surprises us. When Jesus taught His disciples to pray He encouraged them to start by saying: “Our Father…” All too often the enormity of this passes us by.…
At Trinity Central we’re launching 2015 with a Week of Prayer. We want to launch into 2015 by giving ourselves to God in prayer. So from 6-9 January Trinity Central church will meet each evening to pray together for God’s plans and purposes in Vancouver this year. These prayer meetings are a great opportunity to intercede for our…
