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.

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.

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.

This week, we wrap up our Trust Issues series with another eternal truth: Joy flows from generous living. When we trust God with our treasure, time, and talents, He promises to supply all we need and more so we can overflow into every good work (2 Corinthians 9:6–8). Listen in to be encouraged, challenged, and equipped to live generously.

The parable of the talents isn’t just about ability. It’s about trust. We’ve all been given gifts, resources, and opportunities. The question is: are we hiding them out of fear, or putting them to work in faith? Listen in as we talk about how to use your talents faithfully as tools so they don’t end up as burdens or missed opportunities.

Life feels chaotic when your schedule is filled with chaos. Paul says, ‘Walk carefully, not as fools, but as wise men, making the most of the time’ It’s time to spend some time evicting time-thieves, like fear, procrastination, and endless scrolling. Listen in this week for ‘Trust Issues: God, Time and Me’ as we look at how to reclaim your time.

Most of us aren’t chasing a fortune—we just want a little more than we have. But once we get it, we soon find we want a little more. “A little more” is never enough when you believe it will bring satisfaction. It’s a cycle that leaves us anxious and craving peace, but we keep thinking ‘a little more’ and we’ll be satisfied. This week, we’re looking at what fuels the insatiable desire for more, why it never delivers, and how to break free from the loop. Because what we truly want isn’t more stuff, but freedom from the desire for more.

Hope isn’t a feeling, it’s an anchor. Not built on emotion, but truth. Not self-made, but God-given. Not wishful, but confident. Trade a self-reliant feeling for a confidence anchored in the promises of God.

Life will test you. The question is: will you bend or break? A resilient faith absorbs pressure, grows through trials, and stands firm on the promises of God. Resilience isn’t about being tough—it’s about who or what you trust when times are tough. Join us today as we explore cultivating a resilient response to life’s challenges, founded in unwavering confidence in God.

Strong & Still — Part 3: Replacing Anxiety with Peace Most of us think peace will come when things calm down. Peace is not passive; it grows as we establish a rhythm of life that fosters peace.
