Paul says in 1 Cor. 14:1 that we are to “Pursue love, and earnestly desire the spiritual gifts, especially that you may prophesy.” What does Paul’s exhortation mean for a church that values the authority, sufficiency, and inerrancy of Scripture, and yet desires to see the gift of prophecy function in the church in a biblical and edifying way? In this seminar, Rick will seek to give a biblical definition of prophecy and discuss how it might function in your…

We often refer to “the glory of God,” yet we’re not always clear on just what that is. We also would benefit from a deeper understanding on why God alone deserves ultimate and maximal glory. From God’s word, we’ll reflect on what the glory of God is, why God will not and cannot share his glory with another, and how this is good for us and promoting of worship.

Recent years have seen a spate of "gospel" books--defining the gospel, discussing the gospel, applying the gospel--which is all to the good. However, it's possible to discuss and celebrate the gospel without allowing it genuinely to shape our lives, our homes, and our ministries. How can we keep the gospel from being merely a slogan? This seminar will explore such issues and seek to equip us all to place the gospel at the centre of everything.

Leaders and musicians spend multiple hours, even days preparing for a Sunday morning or an event that is meant to lead people in worshiping God in song. But when the time comes, it often ends up being more a crowd watching a performance than a congregation participating in worship. How do we prepare for a worship service in a way that leads to people being engaged with God, encountering the glory of Christ, and experiencing the presence of his Spirit?…

What we love shapes our desires. Our desires shape what we do. Often what we do begins to form a pattern of activity, a liturgy of life. Our worship flows from what we love and what we desire. The book of Revelation pulls back the veil and shows us what really matters, what will happen to those who do wicked things, and how those who overcome by the blood of the Lamb will be rewarded. It also shows us all…
