Foundations Pt 8: Hearing The Voice Of God and The Prophetic (Dr. Rob Reimer)
The most basic underlying need we have is to able to hear and discern the voice of God. Without God’s voice, there is no prophetic ministry. So how are the ways that we can hear God’s voice? How do we interpret his voice? What is the New Testament guideline for how to deliver and use the prophetic in the church today?

Foundations Pt 7: Being Filled With The Holy Spirit
There are many words the Biblical writers used to describe the interaction of the Holy Spirit with those who follow Jesus. The question is what were the Biblical authors trying to describe when using the specific language they did? In this message we are taking a look at Luke’s use of the word “filled” and “full” as well as some of the references to the word “baptism” in reference to the Holy Spirit. How can we best understand the nature and desire of the Holy Spirit in relation to our everyday lives today?

Foundations: Pt 6 The Holy Spirit, Tongues and Interpretation.
Things can get messy when we start entering into the realm of the gifts of the Holy Spirit in public, but the mess and sometimes improper use should never lead us to relegate the gifts to the sidelines. As dysfunctional as the Corinthian church was, Paul wasn’t telling them to stop, he was giving boundaries that were healthy. Part of that is understanding what Paul was teaching by way of correction. What is the gift of tongues that Paul is describing in 1 Corinthians 12-14? Is it the same gift we see released on the believers on the day of Pentecost? How do we use this in our own private devotional life, and more importantly, how do we use this gift in the corporate life of the church? And after all of that, what about interpretation?

The purpose of Pentecost in Acts 2 and how it connects to key passages in the Old Testament. Pentecost wasn’t a random event, God had an agenda to linked all the way back to the Tower of Babel and his plan to reclaim the earth for himself.
We also started a discussion on the spiritual gift of tongues and what exactly was happening in Acts 2 compared to the tongues that Paul speaks about in 1 Corinthians.
