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

Wesleyan Accent September 18, 2020

Gentleness isn’t weakness; it’s strength with a sense of humor.

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

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.

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

The Secret Of Joyful People by Carolyn Moore

Carolyn Moore November 29, 2014

“I told you this so that my joy might be in you, so that your joy might be full.” – John 15:11 I love the image of a smiling Jesus. It always inspires me to wonder about the things Jesus might have smiled at. Children, certainly. I have a sense that no child in a marketplace ever escaped his smile.

Generosity by Maxie Dunnam

Maxie Dunnam November 27, 2014

“There are things that you and I can never do for Christ and the kingdom by ourselves. We have to be a part of a body, a community. This is especially true in the use of our money.”

Lost Trust by Talbot Davis

Talbot Davis November 22, 2014

“Every time you think you’re the only honest person left, every time you think there are no good men or no good women left, God who is the One and Only whispers back: You’re NOT the only one. The One And Only has the ideal number of people to surround you, to advise you, to walk alongside you, to make

Corporate Spiritual Discernment by Danny Morris

Danny Morris November 20, 2014

Spiritual discernment is not limited to individuals. Indeed, corporate spiritual discernment is just as important as individual. Corporately seeking the will of God through prayer and arriving at consensus plays an instrumental role for the body of Christ to function properly. Take a minute to soak in these words from the “Prayer of Abandonment” by Brother Charles of Jesus: Father,

Take Up Your Cross by Christine Johnson

Chris Johnson November 19, 2014

“Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.” (Luke 9:23) Following Christ requires genuine commitment; it calls for the kind of dedication that refuses to chase after one’s own desires for the sake of conforming to the will of God. This type of devotion can only be attained by depriving

The Bread Line At The End Of Your Rope by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner November 17, 2014

Have you ever really, really, really been at the end of your rope? I don’t mean that you’ve had a long day or that an exam was difficult or that you sprained your ankle while running. I mean the Chevy-Chase-losing-it-in-National-Lampoon’s-Christmas-Vacation kind of meltdown in which you discover that you are at the end of yourself. Oh, dear friends, so many people in

How God Communicates by Danny Morris

Danny Morris November 13, 2014

“To discern God’s will, two basic understandings must be fixed in one’s prayer life and personal theology: first, God is good! If you don’t hold that basic conviction, why would you want to know God’s will? Second, communication with God is possible.”

The Table by Michael Smith

Michael Smith November 12, 2014

“Did your family have a kid’s table? Mine did. This was actually a fun experience, but as you age, you wonder when you might be given a chance to sit at the real table. Though we can joke about these memories, in reality there are people in our world who are wanting and waiting for their chance to gather around

Pastoral Care And Contagion by Elizabeth Glass Turner

elizabeth.turner November 10, 2014

“O ALMIGHTY God, who in thy wrath did send a plague upon thine own people in the wilderness, for their obstinate rebellion against Moses and Aaron; and also, in the time of king David, didst slay with the plague of Pestilence threescore and ten thousand, and yet remembering thy mercy didst save the rest; Have pity upon us miserable sinners,

Lost Hope by Talbot Davis

Talbot Davis November 8, 2014

“The answer to this painfully large prayer is massively small: bread, water, and a bed. Elijah wants a snap answer, a quick fix, and God grants the start of a slow process – bread, water, bed. As if recovering hope can never be a matter of great leaps, but always involves small steps.”
