We kick off this episode with a child dedication to our Lord and Savior and in the spirit of lifting someone else up to the Lord, this hot topic deals with exactly that.  We look at the pattern Jesus left for us to follow and compare it to the one we are actually following.  Is the pattern we are following of our own creation?  Did the world create it for us? Or are we actively seeking to follow the pattern set out for us by the God we serve?  We don't have to look far because our lifestyle speaks volumes.  Just look at your checkbook, your calendar, and how you spend your time or use your position in this life.  08.24.2008

Pastor Steve Ulmer takes us through the issue of forgiveness in depth and from a biblical perspective as well as a practical everyday perspective.  We look at and define what forgiveness is and what it's not.  We attempt to answer and define the when, how and why we should forgive as well as 3 different levels of forgiveness.  Who do you need to forgive today?  08.17.2008

Special guest speaker Sid Roberts brings a southern flare to this week's Hot Topic of who Jesus is and who do you say he is. Rooted in Matthew 16 and 17, Sid looks at the probing questions of Jesus as He asks his disciples who the world is saying He is. This is followed up by asking them who they say He is and then we see who the Father says he is. The big idea in all of this is that by seeking the answer to the question of "Who do you say Jesus is?" we find out who we are and what we are to do in this world. 08.10.2008

What's the truth about divorce?  Where did it originate and for what cause could a divorce take place?  The church as well as many other institutions in the world have many different takes on divorce, but what's the truth?  Pastor Jon Burgess walks us into this investigation starting with Moses and ending in Jesus.  He paints a picture of how God has been divorced from his beloved people.  08.03.2008

Special guest speaker Sean Schryba takes us through a very humorous story of a paintballing experience with his brother and draws a very applicable parallel to the subject of spiritual warfare.  From the very basic knowledge of knowing who's team you're on to knowing your enemy's strengths, weaknesses, and areas of domain, Sean takes us into one of the oldest books in the bible, Job, to unveil these truths.  07.27.2008
