The Difference Between Shepherds and Hirelings   1 Corinthians 4:14-16   Mentors can have such huge influence in our lives.  They can impact how we approach different situations and questions.  They can help forge our thought patterns, our self worth and the way we relate to the rest of the world.  How then do we know the difference between a god mentor and a misleading mentor?    

The Difference Between Sacrifice and Surveys   Mother's Day   1 Corinthians 4:14-15   Paul says, "But we were gentle among you, like a nursing mother taking care of her own children." 1Thessalonians 2:7.  Why is the most powerful recommendation for advice the care and sacrifice of the source?    

The Spirit's Mentors   1 Corinthians 2:9-14   Maturity in Christ is a result of spiritual learning, not soulish.  To learn spiritual things we need a spiritual teaching and guiding.  How is your growth going?    

Time for a Change - Peter Heyworth   Continuing in the study through the book of Colossians, Pastor Peter has us thinking about what examples to follow, and what examples to choose to become.      

Matters of the Heart - Rad Runjo Proverbs 16:2-4   This week we had 3 different messages from our 3 campuses.  Pastor Rad shared at Hope Central Salisbury about what our appropriate response is to God's call to us.    

All In - Mel Palmer Luke 9:23 As humans, and as Christians, we tend to give ourselves over to the things that grip us the most.  The things that demand and hold our attention.  How does God fit into that?    

EASTER SUNDAY   Acts 2:22-24   The comeback above all comebacks is the resurrection of Jesus Christ.  When everyone thought He was dead and not relevant, He gave them the biggest "Surprise!" of all.  But what is the point?  What is the relevance and impact of Jesus rising from the dead?    

GOOD FRIDAY   Luke 23:32-43   How do we respond to Jesus' death on the cross?  What does it mean for us, and to us?  Is there a mystical truth we are missing or is Easter a simple ceremonial time of tradition?    

Credit Crisis   1 Corinthians 1:18-31   Do you have what it takes to be respected by others?  What is your status in life and how can you raise it through the roof?  Our lives are sometimes hijacked by our preoccupation with how others see us.    

Intellectual Problems   1 Corinthians 1:17-18,22-24   Could it be possible that we try to confine God in our minds?  Is it even sensible to try?  The immortal, infinite God grasped in finite minds??
