Weekly Talk/Series Resources

At GTA we seek to deliver weekly talks and series that are biblically based, relevant for today, and designed to help you in your relationship with God. The notes and PowerPoint slide shows on this page are available for you to download and use for no cost.

PLEASE NOTE:

Notes dated June 2004 and later are available in our More to Chew On section here, including audio files and other resources.

You can request audio CDs for any weekly talks found in the More to Chew On section by filling out an order form here. (We no longer provide audio CDs of the talks posted on this page.) We kindly request a $2 donation per talk or series part. You can then pick up your CDs in the rear foyer following any weekend service. (Please allow 1-2 weeks for your order to be prepared.) If you don't attend GTA, please indicate so in the order form, and include your mailing address so we can mail the CDs to you. Mailing of CDs is restricted to Canada and the United States. Please mail a cheque to GTA with a donation of $3 per talk or series part to help cover mailing costs.

The notes and slides for each talk/series on this page are together in a ZIP file and must be extracted with a ZIP utility before you can open them. If you don't have one, download the free ZipGenius here.

Some of the notes are RTF files, which can be opened with almost any word processor program. If you don't have one, download the free Microsoft Word Viewer here. Other notes are PDF files, which can be viewed with a PDF reader. If you don't have one, you can download the free Foxit Reader here.

The slide shows are PPS (PowerPoint Show) files. You need either Microsoft PowerPoint or the PowerPoint Viewer to view them. If you don't have either of those, download the free PowerPoint Viewer here.
