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.

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

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.

Saying Yes to Forgiveness by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam April 10, 2024

Share the Post: Recently This Week magazine reported an amazing story of a Pakistani election commissioner admitting that he had participated in what he called the “rigging” of a parliamentary election. “We converted losers into winners,” said Liaquat. He confessed that he couldn’t sleep after what he called “stabbing the country in the back.” He resigned and was arrested. (March

Justice: Giving Each Person Their Due by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman April 5, 2024

Share the Post: Scripture Focus: So justice is driven back, and righteousness stands at a distance; truth has stumbled in the streets, honesty cannot enter. Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that

Hurry Slowly by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam April 2, 2024

Share the Post: Years ago I came across a phrase that grabbed my attention. It was a season of my life when I was paying close attention to my own “spiritual state,” and as a result, seeking to develop particular spiritual disciplines. The phrase, a long obedience in the same direction, comes from Friedrich Nietzsche. This was his statement: “The

Victory Over Death by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam March 26, 2024

Share the Post: There is no if about death. The question is more accurately put, “When a person dies, shall he or she live again?” Not one line of the New Testament was written… not one sentence was penned apart from the conviction that He of whom these things were being written had conquered death and was alive forever. Death

Share the Post: “In the crushing, in the pressing You are making new wine In the soil I now surrender You are breaking new ground…” New Wine by Hillsong Worship My story of crushing and pressing really began in the middle of the pandemic.

Courage, Will and Freedom by Kim Reisman

Share the Post: Scripture Focus: Daniel soon proved himself more capable than all the other administrators and high officers. Because of Daniel’s great ability, the king made plans to place him over the entire empire. Then the other administrators and high officers began searching for some fault in the way Daniel was handling government affairs, but they couldn’t find anything

What Happens When Everyone Stops Sinning by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam March 19, 2024

Share the Post: The preaching must have been powerful. In a recent cartoon, as he leads his parents from worship, Dennis the Menace confronts the preacher. “What happens when everyone stops sinning? What will you do?” While we are not strangers to sin, Dennis stuns us with his statement and questions. We may not reflect or talk much about

Thoughts on Friends, Politics, Church, and a Faithful Witness by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes March 15, 2024

Share the Post: Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer everyone.
