This week we'll get out on the road heading to Corinth. We'll take a brief look at life in Corinth and then jump into the Ministry of Reconciliation. This will be an exiting journey that will challenge us to become "reconcilers" since we have been reconciled and are now invited to live lives of New Creation.

This week we will examine Hebrews 4 to understand why the Israelites failed to receive the promise of rest. Why did their unbelief lead to a hardening of their hearts? We will discover that in order to possess a soft heart you must be hungry for the Father!

Often times Jesus would begin a parable teaching with the words, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like...” This week our study looked at several parables in the New Testament and what Jesus said in these parables about the Foundations of the Kingdom.

The Bible invites us to trust God. It was what Israel’s prophets, like Jeremiah, constantly called the nation back to whenever they turned away from God. But what does it actually mean to trust God? Does it mean nothing will ever go wrong, nothing bad will ever happen to us? And if it doesn’t mean that, how can we really have a confident heart?

Empathy is and always has been the heart of God. The very God that decided he should come close through his son, in order to walk in our shoes and be a faithful high priest. Empathy must be the goal of the believer.

Additional Scriptures: Isaiah 58, Hebrews 2:18, Psalms 139:23-24, Luke 18:10-14

This week we complete our study in the Old Testament looking at how the Kingdom Foundations are revealed in the lives of Moses and Job. We also see how many of the Hebraic traditions are a foreshadowing of Jesus.

"Create in me a pure heart, O God..." (Psalm 51:10) is a familiar bible verse to many of us, but when you hear the verse, do you feel encouragement or conviction? As we begin our series 'Heart Matters - How's Yours', we look at what a pure heart truly means and discover how a pure heart leads us to the peace, hope and joy we all are seeking.

Many of us know the phrase 'The joy of the Lord is your strength' (Neh 8:10) but how many of us know that joy & strength in our lives? As we finish our series 'Reorient', we find out how to lay hold of them today and discover the secret to an ongoing 'Reoriented' life!

Our first class begins with us looking into the Old Testament to see what we can learn about the Foundations of the Kingdom from the creation story in Genesis and the lives of three men who walked closely with God, Abraham, Noah and Joseph.

This is our last week in our series, Reorienting Rock Solid Relationships. Al lead us through Ephesians 5:21 - 'Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.'
