So how are you responding in the midst of these uncertain chaotic times? Are you going from one podcast or meme to another? Are you siloing more deeply into your comfortable tribe?

Welcome to those who are just checking things out, not sure about Jesus yet – I ask you to really think about what reality you are aligning your soul to? Either this world and all of its uncertainty or to Jesus and the resurrection of life, with the promise of eternal life. Remind them why […]

Prayer is a lot more than doing a devotional. Jesus modeled prayer as preparation for acceleration. Ever feel stuck? Stuck in a job you don’t like and seems to be going nowhere. Stuck in a relational struggle you just can’t seem to fix. Stuck in a financial drain with no gain. And what about feeling […]

“An Explosion of Joy” I love that expression and I believe it wonderfully describes a healthy expression of evangelism and Christian mission in the world. Lesslie Newbigin, a British theologian and missionary to India once said, “Mission begins with an explosion of joy.” In this third part, I want to briefly talk about evangelism and […]

What are your expectations for the Christmas season? Has tradition, nostalgia and consumerism formed your expectations or has the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Most Christians would say Christmas is about Jesus’ birth, but does that necessarily mean the Gospel is at the center of their Christmas experience and expectation? Christmas and family traditions can be […]

“The state which endangers the Christian proclamation negates itself.”  -Dietrich Bonhoeffer This is a quote by Dietrich Bonhoeffer from one of his messages during the rise of the Nazis in Germany. The power grab by Hitler and the Nazis came quicker than anyone could have imagined. It thrust the German church into turmoil and ultimately […]

We should learn from history, but too many times we end up just repeating it. If anything proves the biblical doctrine of “sin” and that “all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, “ it should be the repeating of the same evils throughout history.  One of the worst evils that has […]

I write this with some fear and trepidation. Whom am I to even venture out to say, ‘What is God Doing?” However, it is critical that the Church restores its prophetic voice, especially as the Day of the Lord draws near.
