Our Name

Our name is meant to reflect the following aspects and meanings:

First: Spiritual, the word “TRUE” refers to Jesus “Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me".” (John 14:6).

Second: Jesus is our TRUE NORTH: A magnetic compass is a reliable instrument that led navigators and surveyors for centuries to their right direction or safety.

When we say that Jesus is our true north, we mean that He is the constant, unchanging source of truth and life. He is “the same yesterday and today and forever” (Hebrews 13:8). The philosophies, theories, concepts, and schemes of mankind are constantly shifting. “But the word of the Lord endures forever” (1 Peter 1:15; cf. Isaiah 40:8).

When we say that Jesus is our true north, we acknowledge that we live in danger of being “tossed back and forth by the waves and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming” (Ephesians 4:14). In such a tempestuous world, we need to plot our course by the coordinates provided by the Lord Himself. We can avoid making shipwreck of our lives by “fixing our eyes on Jesus” (Hebrews 12:2).

Third: Geographical/National, “TRUE NORTH” is common for Canadians, and it is part of their National Anthem which is an indicator of where the church has started even though we intend to serve the Lord wherever He calls us.
