Ancient Keys for Modern Dilemmas
Who Am I?
Discovering Divine Design for Identity
Genesis 1-3 is the beginning of God's story with us and of each of our stories. The Ancient Hebrew pictographs of Genesis draw us as individuals into discovering the BIG picture of the origin of humanity and what Male and Female were designed to be. Each person comes face to face with God's Divine Pattern and discovers new things about who God declares them to be.
Who is God?
Discovering Divine Design of Love
If God is Love, then we need to understand what love really is to understand God. Paul wrote about love in 1Corinthians 13 and it is quoted in most weddings, but we seem to have missed what it is really about. Paul wrote in Greek, but he was a Hebrew thinker raised in a Hebrew culture. We unpack the Hebrew concepts behind each Greek word and God as
Love leaps off the pages.
Can I Be Safe?
- Let your yes be... Discover
- Let your yes be yes... Implement
- Let your yes be yes and no be no... Guard
We have found that like an above-ground pool we need to have our identity filled up 100% in order to hold our boundaries up. YES empowers NO. When you are still searching to find yourself many will push the walls over to pour in their input of what you SHOULD be. We look at the importance of knowing God's YES for you
and how to guard it.
How Do I Grow?
Good marketing coaches advise creating a need and then presenting the solution. Yeshua/Jesus did just that in His debut with the Sermon on the Mount. Here He set the bar to qualify for His team impossibly high, and then He gave the solution as Himself. However, just being on the team doesn't mean we're able to play the game well. In what we call the "Stages of A Disciple's Heart", found within the opening lines of His Sermon on the Mount, He reveals His process for growth that leads us common people from “Poor in Spirit” to “Pure in Heart” and
eventually full Partnership.
What Part Do I Play?
Where do I fit in God's BIG picture?
Identity is paramount in today's world, with so many agendas pulling us in different directions.
We use a variety of different personality tests and spiritual gifts surveys to help people gain a more full perspective of who they are as a unique individual. They end up with a consolidated tool to take into their future that highlights the unique facets of the gem God has made them to be. This tool can help people be more grounded in their identity and when making or reviewing major life decisions.
Activation Messages
The 2nd Adam & 1 New Man
"Second Adam" & "One New Man". Via the lens of speculative theology looking at how God is building the body of Messiah/ Christ.
The purpose is to pick up from the last Seminar and connect people to the BIG Picture.
Climbing the Spiral Staircase
A view of spiritual maturity through Matt 5's Stages of a Disciples Heart. After a few cycles of the stages one may ask am I really at "Poor in Spirit" Again?!? Yet one will find that through obedience to the Holy Spirit, we have not just been spinning in circles going nowhere, we are climbing up the spiral staircase of Maturity.
Ecklesia Koinonia
These 2 Greek concepts are a POWERFUL thing when brought together. One is a skeleton, and the other is the flesh on it. One is a structure, and the other the life that moves the structure. The Structure is the Body Of Christ / Messiah, those who have come together and placed our Trust in Him. The life that moves the body is a Love that so many are desperate to experience.
Ephesians sifting for the "How"
Ephesians contains hidden treasure, that when found will unlock the future. We explore this hidden mystery that the apostle Paul said he came to reveal and then grapple with
the plan of how it will unfold.
All In - The Gospel of the Kingdom
Partners with Christ Paradigm Shift. What does it look like to be a Kingdom citizen? What did Christ really die for? To give us life insurance? Or to rescue Son's and Daughters, and bring them into the family. There is a place for all of us in the family business. We have all been saved FROM Sin and FOR good works that Father has prepared in advance for us to do.
Homiletics
We are commended in Scripture to always be ready to give an answer for our hope and to rightly handle the Word of Truth. Yet do many of us feel we've been taught how? Hearing God through His word and being ready to share with others is critically important. Learning homiletics is one way to be prepared to read a scriptural text and draw out life principles that God can then move us with and inspire others to do the same.
