ShareWhat’s missing? Here are excerpts from two of our earliest creeds, the Apostles and the Nicene, in order. Read them and see if you can tell what is missing: “…Who was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. [...]

Share When giving is down in churches, what is the first and typical response? It’s to preach a few sermons about giving (at least that has been my experience in working in churches. Your experience may be different). Because that’s the problem, isn’t it. The people don’t know they are supposed to give. They haven’t [...]

Not only is it way better than a certain Seattle-originated coffee place (I made a commitment not to slander on my blog) but it is also where God brought together a few unlikely people.

Jesus was clearly all about his Daddy’s mission. His life and death modeled a missional life that did what the Father did, [...]

Share You have been telling people that this is the Eleventh Hour. Now you must go back and tell the people that this is the Hour. And there are things that need to be considered: Where are you living? What are you doing? What are your relationships? Are you in right relation? Where is your [...]

Share From Glenn Hager: Some of you know that I am trying to shape a ministry that would come along side these pioneers and revolutionaries and help them through the transition. This desire has grown out of my own experience of being a pastor for over twenty years, struggling find my place, and eventually, losing [...]
