Christopher B Miller

Helping People Who Want to Find and Follow Jesus.

PC Speaking

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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.

#529 From Paper to Purpose - Shared Values - Hope

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.

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

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.

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

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.

#526 Trust Issues: God, Every Good Work, and Me

Welcome to Strong and Still Day 7 - Hope. Part 7 of a 7-day Bible meditation program designed to help you build a resilient faith.

#521 Strong and Still Day 7 - Hope

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.
Peace is not found in control, but in being close to Christ. Joyful resilience, prayerful rest, disciplined thinking, and obedient living are patterns we can cultivate in our lives that will help us achieve just that.
