I Stand at the Door … of Your Church by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes October 11, 2021

“Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.” –Jesus, Revelation 3:20 When I was a boy, my grandmother had a picture of Jesus standing outside a door. He was knocking gently, as if asking politely to

God’s Self-Communication by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman September 28, 2021

Scripture Focus: All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It straightens us out and teaches us to do what is right. It is God’s way of preparing us in every way, fully equipped for every good thing God wants us to

A Pastoral Posture Toward Social Media by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard September 13, 2021

My undergraduate degree is in chemistry. My desire was to be a doctor, but the Lord had other plans. I’ve sometimes wondered, “Lord, if this was you plan, couldn’t you have led to me to an easier degree?!” But maybe God did that so I could learn one fact that I actually think about a lot: darkness doesn’t actually exist.

Unwanted Holiness by Elizabeth Glass-Turner

elizabeth.turner September 6, 2021

As the United States screeches with discord and distrust, the people in pulpits and in pews are exhausted. Some had loved ones piloting evacuation flights out of Kabul. Others have spent long hours working in crowded ICUs, nurses or chaplains or doctors breaking down in tears. Firefighters on the West Coast have their pick of blazes incinerating once-lively trees to

When There’s a Knock at the Door: Zacchaeus in Community

Wesleyan Accent September 2, 2021

Knock knock. If it’s a joke, you know what to say: “Who’s there?” But knock knock means something different to different people. Throughout my childhood, when I heard a knock knock on the back door, I could guess the knocker within three guesses. If the knock knock was rapped on the front door, all bets were off. I had no

Centered on Christ by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman August 31, 2021

Scripture Focus: I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love.” Ephesians 3:16-17 An important part

Saints Alive! A Conversation with Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam August 31, 2021

This summer, Dr. Maxie Dunnam released a new devotional resource he developed while at home during the initial wave of coronavirus shutdowns. Saints Alive! 30 Days of Pilgrimage with the Saints is a rich, month-long set of readings; daily reflections aren’t just inspired by those who have come before; they have the tone of being in dialogue with these spiritual giants. Dunnam

Why We Rejoice by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard May 27, 2015

One of the great blessings in life is to celebrate the ways that God works and moves. Sometimes, in our bid to stay humble, we can forget to give testimony to what God has done. Now, we do want to be careful, making sure that God gets the glory for whatever good happens in life, but we need to stop

Tend Your Fire: Fanning The Flame Of Zeal by Tammie Grimm

Tammie Grimm May 25, 2015

“I want to look confident but not come off as aggressive or too assertive – that just won’t do!” How many of us have thought that when preparing for a public presentation, whether it be a workshop we lead for our peers, a meeting with other leaders or even a job interview? We want to look professional, neat and tidy,

I Must Go by Michelle Bauer

Michelle Bauer May 23, 2015

To be a follower is not a valued characteristic in our culture, is it? If someone asked us if we wanted our children to grow up to be followers or leaders, I’m guessing most of us would say leaders. When we hire or promote someone at work are we looking for leaders or followers? But have you ever heard of

Top 5 Reasons Guests Become Part Of Your Church Family by Kevin Watson

Kevin Watson May 20, 2015

At one level, Melissa and I are the ideal first-time guests. And yet, we have been surprised at how difficult it has been to find deep and nurturing community in the local church. We have often been discouraged, because our initial strategy for finding new community when we have moved has been to try to quickly plug in to a

I’m Not A Worthless Sinner by Tom Fuerst

Tom Fuerst May 18, 2015

Worm Theology is probably a good moniker for such belief. It imprisons humanity in this notion that our sin has made us worthless. It fetters us to the falsity that the evil within us has so completely broken us that we literally have no value.

It sounds pious. It sounds like a good understanding of the holy character of God

Solutionists: Problemists by Talbot Davis

Talbot Davis May 16, 2015

Anyway, several months ago I was in one of these meetings – probably 40 people there – admiring the raw spirituality of the environment, when during the sharing time a man says, “We don’t have a drinking PROBLEM. We have a drinking SOLUTION. We’ve got all kinds of problems – marriage, parents, self-esteem, and money – and what we

Know Thyself by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard May 14, 2015

One of the best things in the world that we can do is know ourselves. Know our strengths. Know our weaknesses. There’s an old saying – know thyself. That’s a good thing. Because when we know ourselves, we know what to be on the lookout for. What are things that could cause us trouble. What are the things in our

A Foretaste Of The Heavenly Banquet by Ken Loyer

Ken Loyer May 13, 2015

The idea of the future has a mysterious quality to it because it is always beyond us, in one sense not yet fulfilled. As you look ahead, what do you anticipate about the future? What concerns or fears do you have? Do you think that in the midst of the inevitable uncertainty regarding various aspects of our future, there is

Yes… And: The Grace Of Improv by Jennifer Moxley

Jennifer Moxley May 11, 2015

To say yes is to listen when another person is hurting or needs to process a current life crisis.

To say and is to add a word of encouragement, consolation, or solidarity. Eventually trust is earned as each person allows themselves to be more and more vulnerable when more of their life is shared and accepted. These real and open

Pastor, Interrupted: The Journey Of Nearly Dying by Kelcy Steele

Kelcy Steele May 7, 2015

And as they were in conversation, all I could see was the blurriness of death, being detached from this world and reaching the light of the union with the Creator.
