Bible Study

**\*\*ALERT--UPDATE—CHANGE\*\*** We have decided to change plans for Saturday, July 4th to make it a FIFA watch party instead of a philosophy meetup The 2 reasons are as follows … we might be rained out & Canada plays its biggest game in its Footballing history (the whole nation might be watching). So we decided to have a “viewing-party” meetup at The Maddy for 1pm on July 4th. We’ll be on the patio on the second floor just outside where the pool table & the washrooms are located. I’ll get there early to claim our space — it’d be great to have a few of you there to help me do the same (let’s say around 12 noon). This will be a special moment no matter the result of the game — come on over to The Maddy & let’s create a beautiful memory with our friends from Practical Philosophy. This is what our community is about — we’ll make it a moment to remember. Letttsss gooooo, CANADA!!!

Welcome to Coast to Coast, a supper that celebrates India's coastlines, the flavours we grew up with, and the joy of sharing them with a table full of people. Pudina Kitchen and Mahaksh are two friends who love food deeply and differently, and this July, they're coming together to share one table with you. Coast to Coast is an evening that travels India's coastlines, from the sun-soaked west to the soulful east, through a menu built on summer memories, coastal kitchens, and the kind of cooking that doesn't happen in restaurants. The full menu reveals itself at the table, that's half the fun. What we'll say is: come hungry, come curious, and come ready to be surprised. Please note that this menu includes seafood, kindly specify any allergies or dietary restrictions in the comments when purchasing your ticket. About Pudina Kitchen Pudina Kitchen is a Toronto-based food community rooted in Indian cooking, storytelling, and the belief that a shared meal is one of the most honest ways to connect. Founded by Sargam, who grew up cooking for her family as a young immigrant, Pudina Kitchen has always been about more than food, it's about culture, memory, and belonging. From intimate workshops to community dinners, every experience is personal, intentional, and made with a lot of love. About Mahaksh Mahaksh started cooking for his family and never really stopped. What began as something simple turned into a genuine passion, for flavour, for hosting, for the particular joy of watching people eat food you made for them with care. He believes there is no greater act than feeding someone well, and that a good meal has the power to make people feel at home anywhere. Now hosting supper clubs in Toronto, Mahaksh brings that same warmth and love to every table he sets. The details Saturday, July 4 · Doors open at 6:00 PM Near Sherbourne & Bloor, Toronto (full address shared after ticket purchase) Non-alcoholic drinks included · BYOB welcome Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable.

From the moment sin entered the world, death began. Adam and Eve were not stricken dead immediately, but the process by which none of us lives forever in health and wholeness in these earthly bodies started its inexorable march to the inevitable end—death. The Bible makes it clear that by one man’s sin, death came to all mankind, but that by the obedience of One Perfect Man, Jesus, many are made righteous (Romans 5:19). F.F. Bosworth recognized this truth; he also would have people consider that the God Who provided for our greatest need—salvation from eternal death—would also provide healing for the lesser, but still great needs, of health and healing from sickness, disease, and the consequences of sin that we encounter before we die. Join us as we examine the case for biblical healing in the book first published in 1924, ***Christ The Healer*. We meet at True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center on Tuesday, July 7, 2026 at 6:30 pm.** Get your tickets on [EventBrite](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/christ-the-healer-columbus-ohio-tickets-1989133215995)!

Just because someone quotes the Bible doesn't mean that they are using it in truth. In Luke chapter 4, Jesus goes out into the wilderness to fast and pray for 40 days and Satan takes that opportunity to taunt and tempt Jesus to sin. How does Satan make effort to entice God In Human Flesh to sin? By quoting His own words to Him, but out of context, falsely, and with evil intent. The importance of knowing God rightly and in truth through His Word is of utmost importance. Jesus made this clear when He defeated Satan's arguments by directing Scripture right back at the Father of Lies, in the Spirit and in Truth. Come study Luke 4 with us, **Sunday morning, July 26, 2026 at 10 am, True Food Kitchen, Easton Town Center**! We look forward to seeing you there!!

"People will forget what you say, they will forget what you do, but they will never forget how you make them feel." Maya Angelou, referencing a previous statement by Carl Buehner, summarized what humans have long realized to be true--that *how* we communicate with one another matters--that our manners, our behaviors, our etiquette impact those around us, which impacts us in return. Warm, friendly, and helpful, former lawyer, public policy worker, television news reporter, and national nonprofit director, Alison Cheperdak wants to encourage each of us to elevate our communication and interactions with others and bring a greater sense of kindness, respect, graciousness, and class to our world.

"...they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed Him." Luke 5:11 Many people often think of following after Jesus in terms of what He provides--His good, kind gifts of with which He blesses His children. Not so the first disciples--when Jesus demonstrated His power as God over the seas by procuring boats overflowing with fish, the response of the fisherman was firstly an acknowledgement of their own sinfulness, and secondly, and immediate abandonment of their livelihoods to follow Jesus. The good was forsaken for the best. Jesus still calls--"Come, follow Me." Are we willing to give up *whatever* it takes to follow Jesus? Will we lay down our pride and our veneer of self-sufficiency and recognize that we are sinners who need a Savior? Are we willing to sacrifice the things the world says will bring us happiness and pleasure for the sake of what is greatest and what will bring true joy?
