ShareI am periodically going to write free-form posts. No pre-planned direction. No filtering. Just my thoughts as they come to the page. These are not decrees. They will not be worked out. They will not be without error. They Simply Will Be. To be honest, it will be more for me than anyone else. I [...]

Share Probably the two greatest statements I heard at the Emerging Church Conference. Both of these were words of wisdom that Alexie Torres-Fleming’s mom told her growing up: “Whatever you have — that you do not need — does not belong to you.” A far cry from our consumerism and American Dream mentality. This is [...]

Share Jonathan said, “And even when we share the Gospel story, we’re left with the real question. If this person says, “No,” for whatever reason, will we still choose to love them? Will we still share the Gospel with them? Will we still be love, which is the fullest reflection of Jesus and the call [...]

Share Warning: This is not for the squeamish! Watch at your own risk! My son and I had a great talk about maggots, what they are (fly larva) and what an important role they play in creation. So being raised with the internet, he asked the inevitable question , “Dad, can we find a video [...]
