Red Frogs And Zoe Manor (Nelly Latchman interview)

November 15, 2023 by Kevin Rogers in At Risk Youth, Canada, Christianity, Housing, Intentional Community, Kevin Rogers, Mission Canada, New Song Church, PAOC, Religion & Spirituality, Serve Campus Network, Urban Ministry, Windsor Ontario

At sixteen years of age, Nelly Latchman was on a youth group mission trip to New Song Church. The days in Windsor were an opportunity to experience God at work in an urban context outside of her own neighbourhood. That initial experience would eventually culminate in moving to Windsor after graduating from Tyndale Seminary.

Today, Nelly is a Mission Canada worker that serves as part of the national Serve Campus Network with her focus on the University of Windsor. She is also a young adult pastor at Parkwood Gospel Church.

Healed Of Schizophrenia (Josh Tamblyn interview)

August 15, 2023 by Kevin Rogers in Josh Tamblyn, Canada, Christianity, Kevin Rogers, Mental Health, Mission Canada, PAOC, Religion & Spirituality, Serve Campus Network, Substance Abuse, Urban Ministry, Burnaby BC

When it comes to medical conditions and healing, Christians hold a range of views from the intervention of doctors and medicine, alternative practices and healing that comes from God. I am not a doctor, so I would never give medical advice but would always encourage people to take a threefold approach to getting help.

First, we ask God for help in all things. Secondly, we investigate and utilize good medicine and thirdly we look at alternative methods when the first two are not yielding a result. Some will try alternative before mainstream and that’s their choice.

I bring this up today as we consider that the spiritual life of a person may be affected by physical and mental conditions. I believe that God heals, and today’s guest passes the test in my mind for a verifiable miracle from God.

Josh Tamblyn was healed of schizophrenia. We’re going to hear his story and also learn about his present involvement in ministry.

Univer-City Life (part 2)

May 15, 2022 by Kevin Rogers in Canada, Chaplaincy, Christianity, David Ritz, Jazelle Johnson, John Engels, Kelly Johnson, Kevin Rogers, Mission Canada, PAOC, Quebec/Francophone Canada, Religion & Spirituality, Serve Campus Network, Urban Ministry

This is part 2 of my conversation with John Engels, Kelly Johnson, Jazelle Johnson and David Ritz. We talk about the effects of deconstructing faith and how university campus leaders are engaging in meaningful conversations. Many students are experiencing an awakening of conscience and sorting through what to believe about right and wrong.

If you haven’t yet listened to part 1 of the interview you can find it here:

Univer-City Life (part 1)

May 01, 2022 by Kevin Rogers in Canada, Chaplaincy, Christianity, Kevin Rogers, Mission Canada, PAOC, Quebec/Francophone Canada, Religion & Spirituality, Urban Ministry, John Engels, David Ritz, Kelly Johnson, Milly Li, Jazelle Johnson

It is no secret that public education finds its roots in the Christian faith. Study the roots of any historic university and you will find that clergy and prominent Christian community builders believed that education held the keys to greater wisdom and understanding. Christian faith is built on curiosity and wonder about all of Creation and unveiling its mysteries.

But today if you walk onto the campuses of Canadian universities, you may need to look harder to find a place for Christian faith.

Building on a history of campus chaplaincy, Christian outreach, and discipleship groups we are seeing a resurgence of gospel witness and Christian community emerging as Heaven’s counterculture in the midst of an often-hostile environment.

In this episode I have a conversation with John Engels, Milly Li, Kelly Johnson, Jazelle Johnson and David Ritz.

Post-Secondary Lifeline

September 15, 2020 by Kevin Rogers in Canada, Christianity, Mission Canada, PAOC, Urban Ministry

David Burke is a Mission Canada campus worker to Ryerson University, situated in the core of downtown Toronto. Ryerson is home to over 43,000 students, the majority of whom do not know Christ as their Saviour. David, along with his wife, Krysten, launched a ministry on campus called "LifeLine" to help fill this spiritual need. LifeLine exists to be a vibrant faith community that is actively introducing people to Jesus Christ, and discipling and mentoring those who do know Him.
