The Minimalist’s Path to Spirituality

Posted on April 28, 2019 Written by Sharon Torres Leave a Comment

Minimalism is not an encouragement to renounce life as you know it and live out your days as a pauper. It is a call to embrace that which you need to survive comfortably and to release yourself from the rest.

Mr. Miyagi’s Little Trees

Posted on September 11, 2015 Written by Joshua Richards Leave a Comment

It starts with seeking God in the deep places and growing down. The upward growth will happen almost on its own. We need to seek deeper roots in our own lives, in small clusters of believers who want more, and little by little in the way we think and talk and value things as entire congregations and as the global Church.

Out-Live, Out-Last, Out-Love

Posted on July 6, 2015 Written by Bob Myers 2 Comments

We didn’t make up our foundational belief about a murdered Galilean rising from the dead. We didn’t make up the stuff about His promise to return on a white horse, riding on a cloud. We also didn’t make up the stuff about how we should live.

Spiritual CPR – No Insurance Required

Posted on September 17, 2014 Written by L. T. Lewis Leave a Comment

What is important is that I had it ALL. I had been a practicing Christian since my youth. My faith was growing. My relationship with God was solid. I had a great income. My children, though typical teenagers, were doing well. All the boxes were checked. Life was sweet UNTIL a mistake at work was made on my watch. The bottom fell out of my life.

Question 17

What happened to man in the fall?

You might take issue with the idea of the fall of man as recorded in the book of Genesis. You might not attribute the state of man to sin, but you would have to work very hard to avoid the evidence that man is prone to misery.

Do not call conspiracy

The danger is that we can allow fear to cause us to lose sight of the fact that God remains in control and is moving history toward his own end, following his own time-line. Like Peter foundering in the waves, when we take our eyes off of God, panic can set in.

400

400 is Really Old

The KJV, which turns 400 this year, has been used by God to transform millions of lives. This is a noteworthy accomplishment and should be celebrated.

Church Cliche

Let’s not overstate the case – Another cliche to avoid

It is important to think about what we say to a world that needs Jesus. Some of our cliches are not helpful. In this post I consider one and explain why I think this cliche should be avoided.

Vision of God

Purity of heart is the means of seeing God

The Beatitude tells us that the pure in heart will see God. What does this purity look like and how will it assist vision of God? When will this vision be manifested?
