Recalculating by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes April 6, 2022

I don’t always have the best sense of direction. That is one reason why I was particularly thankful when GPS systems became available for your car. I no longer had to pull over to look at a map, rather I could just obediently listen to the voice traveling with me, telling me where to turn. When I strayed from the

Sitting on the Stone by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman March 28, 2022

This month begins our journey to Jerusalem and our celebration of the resurrection – the heart of the good news! Jesus has risen from the dead, overcome evil, and given us eternal life! And yet, this good news comes amidst a lot of difficult news. War in Ukraine, genocide in Myanmar, illness, death, injustice, oppression, poverty, hunger – the list

Why We Must Develop Habits Of Deeper Discernment

Wesleyan Accent February 25, 2022

The demands of our world make it abundantly clear that we urgently need Christians who cultivate habits of discernment. Discernment can be challenging to define and practice at the best of times, but it is absolutely vital at certain moments. And within the practice of discernment lies a quiet habit that may seem like a rabbit trail leading off from

The Word of God by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman February 23, 2022

Scripture focus: I run the way of your commandments, for you enlarge my understanding. (Psalm 119:32, NRSV) We have begun 2022 with two understandings about Scripture. It’s God’s path and God’s breath. This month I want to offer a third understanding about Scripture. It’s God’s Word. I realize describing Scripture as the Word of God can make some of

Overcoming Antagonism: What You Can Learn From Nehemiah by Edgar Bazan

Edgar Bazan February 14, 2022

At our church, we’re spending time in the book of Nehemiah and learning how it is that amazing things happen. So far, we’ve explored how amazing things happen when we pray, when we plan, and when we work together. Consider with me now how amazing things happen when we overcome antagonism. Let’s quickly recap the context of the book of

Celtic Christianity And The Coloring Craze by Tammie Grimm

Tammie Grimm January 30, 2017

Chances are, you or someone you know gave or received a coloring book for adults in the last year. With titles as catchy as “Color Me Stress Free” or “The Art of Relaxation,” the coloring craze has swept the nation. Whether the book contains images of floral gardens, mandalas or other graphic patterns, the idea behind coloring therapy is to

Is Sin Necessary To Know Jesus? Why It Matters by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner January 26, 2017

“Jesus has a body but the Father and Spirit do not. Discuss.” One of my acquaintances posted this on social networking recently, provoking a number of responses. One person wondered if Christ had always had physical form. The discussion spun and doubled back, spiraled and swung. And, as it happens, it matters. Frequently theology – especially Trinitarian theology – is

Suicide And The Enemy Of Our Souls by Carolyn Moore

Carolyn Moore January 25, 2017

Yet another acquaintance lost his life to depression over the holidays. Such loss leaves everyone devastated on multiple levels. When devastations like suicide drop into our lives, we’re left with far more questions than answers, not to mention the guilt and so often, such a sense of powerlessness. Stretching to make sense of a tragic event, we tend to grab

Spirit Nudges: Winston Worrell’s Life of Listening by Kim Reisman

World Methodist Evangelism January 18, 2017

God’s preferred method of interacting with us is to use particular people at particular times, usually to deliver a particular message.

Visible Tokens: Communion through a Chain Link Fence by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman January 16, 2017

Every month, on the day the gate opens, the Methodist Church is present – on both sides of the wall. There is conversation. There is prayer.

And there is Holy Communion.

Be Careful Little Tongue What You Say by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard January 15, 2017

We had a funny moment here in our house the other night. My oldest was filling out a form to take the ACT in the coming weeks. She’s only in the 7th grade, but I like that they start taking it early. She was filling out the form and she called me into the living room. When I got there, she

Kodak, Hirsch, and the Future of the Church by James Petticrew

James Petticrew January 11, 2017

I doubt there is a more used and less understood word in the contemporary church than “missional.” Missional is not about being better at being Kodak in a digital photograph world.

Everything That Is Hurt: St Symeon by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman January 11, 2017

And everything that is hurt, everything
That seemed to us dark, harsh, shameful,
Maimed, ugly, irreparably damaged
Is in Him transformed.

Unknown Gods by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman January 9, 2017

The question remains. Do we really know the High God? How would our lives change if we really understood the fact that the God made real in Jesus Christ – the God of the world – loves each tribe and nation equally? How would that understanding change how we looked at other tribes and clans – even in our own

How To Pray When Your Prayer Life Is On The Rocks by Carolyn Moore

Carolyn Moore January 9, 2017

J. C. Albert has to be one of the greatest followers of Jesus I’ve ever met. I met him in India in 2012. He was the most open, loving, friendly guy and he had these wonderful stories to tell of adventures with Jesus. He has visited and shared the good news of Jesus Christ in nearly 3,000 tribal villages in
