The Darker the Darkness Gets by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman December 21, 2020

When my son, Nathan, was a kid he had a watch with a dial that would glow in the dark. The only problem was that it never seemed to be dark enough to see it glow. One day, all the kids were playing in our basement, which is like a cave – it’s PITCH DARK. No light gets down there.

Make a Path for God’s Comfort to Arrive by Jackson Lashier

Jackson Lashier December 16, 2020

“Comfort, comfort my people, says your God. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem, and proclaim to her that her hard service has been completed, that her sin has been paid for, that she has received from the Lord’s hand double for all her sins. A voice of one calling: ‘In the wilderness prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the

Words Destroy or Hallow

Wesleyan Accent December 3, 2020

“Let’s put him on blast!” I hadn’t heard the phrase before, but I instantly knew what it meant: whatever the business’s misstep had been, the call was sent out to grab it by its social media handles and tear it down. A bit of photographic evidence, a globally-audible, locally-tangible siren, and the business was tagged: the company was now “it”—a

In Peace: An Advent Benediction by Suzanne Nicholson

Suzanne Nicholson December 2, 2020

Go in peace,Remembering that the Christ who was King and is King and will forever be KingWas born not to a family of nobles and princes,But to a family who couldn’t even place their child in a proper crib;a manger would have to do. Go in peace,Remembering that the Christ who would be both the high priest and the perfect

Embracing The New For The Sake Of Mission by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes November 30, 2020

Think of a time when you went through a significant transition to something wonderful and new. Maybe it was moving away from home for the first time and getting your own place. Maybe it was starting a new job and moving to a new city. Maybe it was getting married and beginning a new life together. We can celebrate the

Prayer and Fasting by Kim Reisman

World Methodist Evangelism November 30, 2020

We’ve entered the season of Advent, that time of preparation for the birth of Jesus Christ. Because Advent is the beginning of the Church year, I find it interesting that the Gospel readings for the first Sunday always begin with the end – the return of Christ. In my mind those are the kind of passages that should come at

World Methodist Evangelism November 30, 2020

We are excited to announce that João Paulo Lopes has accepted the role of Coordinator for Emerging Leadership at World Methodist Evangelism. Identifying and nurturing emerging leaders has been a significant part of World Methodist Evangelism’s mission and ministry.

Yet God Is Always There by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman November 25, 2020

When our daughter Hannah first began teaching, she taught kindergarten. At one point during that year she was on the playground with her class. It was midday and the children were caught up in their play when one of them noticed the moon, visible despite the daylight. What is that? he asked Hannah. The moon, she answered. The moon?! His

The Startling Poetry of Madeleine L’Engle

Wesleyan Accent August 19, 2020

It is startling to encounter words that easily puncture what troubles us, in a moment aching for the holy iconoclasm of the poetry of Madeleine L’Engle.

The Cost of Preaching Pastorally & Prophetically by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam August 17, 2020

If we are guided by Scripture, the content of our preaching will always have aspects of the pastoral and the prophetic.

The Lord Who Heals You: Jehovah Rophe by Michelle Bauer

Michelle Bauer August 15, 2020

Is it tempting to stand back and admire God who heals, but to neglect allowing God to heal you? God doesn’t want to leave you half-done and stalled out.

The World Is Our Parish

Rob Haynes August 11, 2020

The founder of our Methodist movement, John Wesley, is often celebrated for declaring that “The World is my parish…” This quote has inspired many to serve in ministry around the world. However, most contemporary Methodist churches do not organize themselves in parishes the way Wesley’s church did. What did Wesley mean when he said this? What does it mean to see the world

A Prayer For Learners by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner August 11, 2020

Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid – You read our hearts like an open book: you see our meanings, our intentions, our knowledge, our opinions, our questions, our backstories, our wounds, and our promise. Our hearts are open to you even when wisdom seems closed to us. You

Doubts & The Mission Of Jesus by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard August 5, 2020

I’ve been thinking a lot about the Great Commission in Matthew 28. It’s a passage many know well, finding it an inspiration, a call, a light to guide the way. It’s a powerful text, one that has inspired Christians for thousands of years, so it’s not a passage usually associated with doubts. Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to

Growing Faith Through the Power of the Holy Spirit by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman August 3, 2020

Recently, I had the honor of preaching at the annual gathering of Aldersgate Renewal Ministries. What a blessing!

Preaching in Times of Upheaval by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam July 27, 2020

Knowing that your preaching is limited in possible impact, don’t see proclamation as your primary witness.
