What does it mean to actively wait? Pray. Turn to the Scriptures. Continue to do what God has called us to do.

We live in a world that longs for peace. God brings peace through Jesus. But how can we experience peace in this world and in our lives?

Who was Melchizedek? Melchizedek and Jesus. How does this impact me? 

What is grief? Grief is acute pain that accompanies loss. The Grave of Grief; your pain is real. You have permission to feel. Jesus is not afraid of your grief. Jesus compassionately enters your grief with you. Jesus can give you His perspective and His presence with you. Where are you? (Red Dot-Blue Dot)

Jesus is the high Priest; He is powerful and merciful and is drawing us closer.

Pay attention; pass the torch; hope anew; bad examples; what breaks your heart? Reality vs. Ideal

Uniting with Christ in His death and resurrection; counting ourselves dead to sin and alive in Christ; offering ourselves not to sin but to God.

Unbelief has consequences: makes God angry, leads to sin and disturbs our rest. How do we live in God’s rest? Protect your heart, be an encourager and persevere.

There is a Sabbath-rest available to all ... but not all will receive it. 

Stay focused on Jesus; on Jesus only; on Jesus our hope.

The WARNING, the DRIFT, the PRICE, the RECOVERY, the END.

But we see Jesus as our substitute, our sanctifier, our brother, our Satan-destroyer and our sympathizer.

Jesus came communicating.  Jesus has a lot to share with us.  Jesus created this earth and sustains it.  Jesus created a way that I might connect with God.  Jesus is sitting at the right hand of God.

Our destiny; our destiny restricted; our destiny restored.

Angels are powerful beings, but Jesus is greater. Angels are Jesus’ ministers, sent to serve those who are followers of Jesus.

What is the church? How does Heartland be the church?

In the past God spoke. God spoke to us through Jesus. God still speaks today.

Jesus has a keen interest in His church. Jesus watches the church in Ephesus grow and die. So, how does a healthy, vibrant, hardworking and committed church die?

The helmet; salvation; why do we need a helmet?

Pray at all times.  Stay alert!  Pray with all kinds of prayer, with all perseverance and for all kinds of people.

The sword of the Spirit is the Word of God, a defensive weapon and an offensive weapon.

Colette Baudais

Our shield; Satan’s fiery arrows; our faith

Peace forms the foundation from which we fight - peace WITH God and peace OF God. Peace brings the confidence to share.

Human nature; fatal consequences; our new nature

The knowledge of truth; the experience of truth; the Person of truth.

Put on your armour; stand firm; know the enemy’s schemes; prerequisite

Satan, the father of lies - created by God and originated in heaven; corrupted himself through sin; fights against God and all He stands for; is already defeated.

Spirit-filled workers have the right attitude and know who they work for.  

Under my roof; honour where honour is due; but … where do children primarily learn obedience and honour? How do we honour the dishonourable? The call to children is the call to Jesus’ followers.

Fathers, do not exasperate your children. Train your children, nourish and discipline them, in the Lord. Know that your sons’ and daughters’ view of God has a lot to do with you.

A Spirit-filled wife submits to her husband as to the LORD, by responding to him and by respecting him.

A Spirit-filled husband submits to his wife by loving her, as Christ loves the church; with a sacrificial love; with a purifying love; with an attentive love; with an unbreakable love. A Spirit-filled husband submits to his wife by leading her, as Christ leads the church.

The good news. How do I enter the light? How do I stay in the light?

What does it mean to submit? Mutual submission and mutual benefit. Why should I submit?

Spirit-filled worship is expressed to one another, from your heart to the Lord, with thanksgiving.

Do not get drunk. Be filled with the Holy Spirit.

Life lived God’s way means we live not as unwise, but making the most of every opportunity; not foolishly, but pursuing God’s will.

Christ’s death and resurrection defines who we are and determines how we live.

Good Friday

What is futile thinking? How did I get here? What does it lead to? How can I change?

Get rid of bitterness. Embrace forgiveness. Be kind and compassionate.

The critic, the coach, the Holy Spirit.

The real—God’s love. The counterfeit—Satan’s imitation. The consequences—our choice.

Stop stealing. Start sharing. There’s hope.

Put off, be renewed, put on.

What is anger? Is anger ever justified? What if I don’t do anything about my anger? How can I deal with my anger?

Lying is a part of our old nature. Lying is a sin. Lying is a relationship killer. Lying can stop.

We grow up into Christ by speaking the truth in love by each doing our part.

God is calling us to grow up mature so that we can experience more of His kingdom and not be picked off by those who come to deceive.

Christ gives certain spiritual gifts to equip followers of Jesus for building up the church, for unity and for maturity.

To what are we called? Why is unity important? How can unity be maintained? What will unity look like?

What is your calling? Are you living up to that calling? Why does it matter? The greatest calling of all.
