#536 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Valuing People

So many people come to faith communities carrying pain, exhaustion, or disillusionment from performance-based religion. This week, we return to the beginning — Genesis 1— to rediscover what God says about human worth. Before He gave humanity a task, He gave us identity. You are created in the image of God — valued and blessed before you ever “do” anything.
Join us this Sunday as we explore how to build a community that values people not only for productivity, but foremost, for the divine image they bear.

#535 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Strong, Joyful, Resilient Teams

This Week, we’re exploring what it means to serve with strength, joy, and resilience — and how to actually do it. 1 Thessalonians 5 reminds us to stay awake, steady, prayerful, and grateful — habits that build teams that are strong, joyful, resilient, and fully reliant on the strength of Jesus.

#534 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Team of Teams

Words like diversity, equity, and inclusion are terms we’ve heard frequently in recent times. However, I think when you take a closer look, those words are often more about demands, compliance and conformity than anything else. This week, we’re talking about what diversity looks like in our church context and how diversity (not conformity) makes us stronger, and how each person’s contribution matters. -PC

#533 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Building People

This week, we're back to in-person recording and continuing our 'From Paper to Purpose' series with a timely reminder: We don’t just build ministries — we build people. Ministries are tools. People are eternal.
God’s design is not just about filling schedules, but about transforming lives — investing in clarity, care, and spiritual confidence.

#532 - From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Making Room.

Some have been given the false impression that church is about conformity; in reality, it’s about harmony. This week we’re in Romans 15:1–7, learning how spiritually strong people carry the weak, how Jesus welcomed us first (at great cost), and how a culture of grace creates harmony, not uniformity. If you’ve been hurt by “fit in or get out,” listen in and hear why the gospel says, ‘Welcome, let Jesus do the forming.’ We’re making room for you.

#531 Crossroads of Contention - Moving Forward in the Wake of the Charlie Kirk Assassination

After a week of raw headlines, strong opinions, and not knowing who or what to believe, many of us find ourselves standing at a crossroads. This week, we walk through Romans 12:9-21 and learn how to love without pretence, bless instead of curse, and overcome evil with good. If you’re looking for a Christ-shaped way to process grief, anger, and division—and to live it out—listen in.

#530 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Purpose, Not Compulsion

This Father’s Day, we’re looking at what it means to live with purpose—not pressure.
Our shared value this week: “We are motivated by purpose, not compulsion.”
Serving out of guilt, fear, or manipulation drains you physically, mentally and spiritually. When we are motivated by our God-given purpose, we find the strength to persevere and the courage to say a firm “no” to compulsion.

#529 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Hope

Everyone is searching for hope. Some look for it in success, others in relationships, or in a better tomorrow, but eventually all of those break or fade.
At Hinterland, we believe real, lasting hope is found in Jesus. This Sunday, in our series From Paper to Purpose, we’ll explore what it means to carry the hope of the Gospel into a broken world — not just in our words, but in the way we live, respond, and serve.

#528 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Shared Identity

Who are you… really? If you lost everything—your possessions, your job, even your reputation—what would remain? Many spend their lives building identity on what they own, what they achieve, or what others think, only to discover those foundations are fragile, fleeting, and often conflicting.
At Hinterland, we believe true unity comes from shared values and purpose anchored in our shared identity in Christ. This week, we continue our series ‘From Paper to Purpose’ as we explore what it means to find our identity in Jesus—and live it out together.

#527 From Paper to Purpose: Shared Faith - Shared Values - Shared Purpose

Week 1: Purpose
 
Without a shared purpose and values, we drift aimlessly—eventually colliding with something we didn’t see coming. But when we embody the Gospel, reflect Christ’s character, and serve His purpose, we move in the same direction together—united, strong, and effective for God’s Kingdom.
