Is repentance a condition of acceptance? When we show and share the love of Jesus, why is it important to open our arms in welcome before we do anything else?

Do We Love People The Way We Say We Do? by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman September 28, 2020

When it comes to sharing the love of Christ with the world, the connection between what we say we believe and how we live out those beliefs is crucial. Our integrity is directly related to the strength of that connection. If there is a gap between what we say we believe and the way we live our lives, we lose

The Surprising Call to Gentleness

When the Holy Spirit Empowers Our Ears to Hear

Wesleyan Accent September 11, 2020

One of my favorite Holy Days is Pentecost, partly because (thankfully) it hasn’t been co-opted by Western consumerism. Maybe that’s why it comes and goes without too much attention. We don’t have weeks of lead-up like we do for Christmas or Easter; and the Holy Spirit definitely doesn’t have the economic punch of Santa or the Easter Bunny. Pentecost is

The Miracle Of Mouths And Ears by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman September 9, 2020

One of my favorite Holy Days is Pentecost, partly because (thankfully) it hasn’t been co-opted by western consumerism. Maybe that’s why it comes and goes without too much attention. We don’t have weeks of lead up like we do for Christmas or Easter; and the Holy Spirit definitely doesn’t have the economic punch of Santa or the Easter Bunny. Pentecost

Plans And Power: Our Limits And God’s Goodness by BJ Funk

BJ Funk September 8, 2020

“Plan your work and work your plan.” That phrase is great – in theory. Usually, it carries with it a practical application. But sometimes those plans are suddenly laid aside. That’s where our churches found themselves in March of this year. We planned our work ahead of schedule – but then weren’t able to work that plan. Coronavirus took the

The Reality Of Interdependency In An Age Of Social Distancing by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman August 31, 2020

A significant aspect of the Embrace understanding of showing and sharing the love of Jesus is the idea of interdependency – the idea that human beings flourish in the context of relationships with others. Rather than focusing solely on our independence, to truly thrive, we must recognize that we are interdependent – both separate and connected to those around us.

Social Media & Holiness by Andy Stoddard

Andy Stoddard August 26, 2020

I’ve always been an “early adapter.” I may not be the first person to try a new technology, but I’m not far behind. Following the arrival of the first iPhones, I wasn’t at the Apple Store at midnight for a new release – but I’d show up sometime the next day. So I joined social media early on. As soon as

Grace in Vladivostok: The Sum Is Greater Than Its Parts by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman April 19, 2016

I have often said that the Methodist Wesleyan family is more than the sum of its parts. That is because when the family gathers it is a Revelation moment. People gathered around the throne of God, from every tribe and people group, every shape, size, color, and language. And God’s home is there, among the people.

Soul Man: The Sweet Sound of Al Green by Steve Beard

Saint Paul was converted on the Road to Damascus; Al Green was made righteous off Interstate 5 near Disneyland.

The Shape of Discipleship by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam April 16, 2016

The intercessory life is a pattern for our interior growth in prayer that is abiding in Christ, and the outward expression of a missional Christ life in the world. It is a dynamic balance of paying attention to our personal spiritual maturity, and the call of Christ to minister as servants in the world.

Church Growth: Fruitful Or Cancer?

Wesleyan Accent April 14, 2016

Today’s post is a compelling piece written anonymously by a successful pastor. The Ideology of a Cancer Cell I rarely have those moments I would unquestioningly call, “divine.” I’ve never been one to see the fingerprints of God on everything around me. So when something happens in my life that just seems divinely orchestrated, I have to latch on

Easter’s Frayed Red Carpet by Elizabeth Moyer

Elizabeth Moyer April 13, 2016

On the day when we had the least amount of time to tend to the needs of others, we boldly said come join us.

How To Live Like Jesus Is Alive by Carolyn Moore

Carolyn Moore April 11, 2016

I suspect sometimes that I live more out of a sense of obligation than awe — more aware that I’ve signed onto a system than that I am a servant of a holy God who has actually sapped the power out of death and sin. I need to be reminded that systems are not living, breathing things, but Jesus is.

What Are Wesleyans For? by David Drury

David Drury April 7, 2016

Evangelicals are often defined by what they are against instead of what they are for. I am a part of a sub-section of the larger Evangelical church that is more broadly called “Wesleyan.” This would include people like The Free Methodists, The Church of the Nazarene, The Salvation Army, more conservative United Methodists, and about a dozen other groups including my

Easter Living: Fear of Missing Out by Harley Scalf

Harley Scalf April 6, 2016

Over the past few months, having been to the cross, visited the empty tomb, and celebrated the Resurrection, let us now live in awareness of the sin for which we will never be crucified.

Four Lessons for the Church from Major League Baseball by Michael Smith

Michael Smith April 4, 2016

Baseball has seen its ups and downs recently While the ownership groups seem to be having their largest years of fiscal success, the sport’s popularity is fading. To respond to the changing tide of culture, Major League Baseball has tried to address their need.

An Easter Foretaste by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman March 28, 2016

This Easter truth is as mind-boggling and subversive today as it has been in every age; because rather than looking forward to a day when the things that make us different from others disappear, the resurrection proclaims that we look forward to an eternity in which those differences remain, but no longer divide.
