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! ARM is an organization in the Wesleyan Methodist family that is committed to enabling followers of Jesus to grow through experiencing the power of the Holy Spirit.

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.

Visits Through The Distance: Pastoral Presence by BJ Funk

BJ Funk July 25, 2020

Raise your hand if you are a pastor who inwardly rejoiced when hospitals closed their doors for pastoral visits because of Covid-19. If only a fleeting moment, did you whisper a sigh of relief because Covid regulations meant you did not have to (a) make an already long day even longer with an afternoon stop by the hospital before heading

Recalculating by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes April 6, 2022

I don’t always have the best sense of direction. That is one reason why I was particularly thankful when GPS systems became available for your car. I no longer had to pull over to look at a map, rather I could just obediently listen to the voice traveling with me, telling me where to turn. When I strayed from the

Sitting on the Stone by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman March 28, 2022

This month begins our journey to Jerusalem and our celebration of the resurrection – the heart of the good news! Jesus has risen from the dead, overcome evil, and given us eternal life! And yet, this good news comes amidst a lot of difficult news. War in Ukraine, genocide in Myanmar, illness, death, injustice, oppression, poverty, hunger – the list

Why We Must Develop Habits Of Deeper Discernment

Wesleyan Accent February 25, 2022

The demands of our world make it abundantly clear that we urgently need Christians who cultivate habits of discernment. Discernment can be challenging to define and practice at the best of times, but it is absolutely vital at certain moments. And within the practice of discernment lies a quiet habit that may seem like a rabbit trail leading off from

The Word of God by Kim Reisman

Kim Reisman February 23, 2022

Scripture focus: I run the way of your commandments, for you enlarge my understanding. (Psalm 119:32, NRSV) We have begun 2022 with two understandings about Scripture. It’s God’s path and God’s breath. This month I want to offer a third understanding about Scripture. It’s God’s Word. I realize describing Scripture as the Word of God can make some of

Overcoming Antagonism: What You Can Learn From Nehemiah by Edgar Bazan

Edgar Bazan February 14, 2022

At our church, we’re spending time in the book of Nehemiah and learning how it is that amazing things happen. So far, we’ve explored how amazing things happen when we pray, when we plan, and when we work together. Consider with me now how amazing things happen when we overcome antagonism. Let’s quickly recap the context of the book of

Share Your Faith … Again by Rob Haynes

Rob Haynes February 14, 2022

Have you ever watched a caterpillar transform into a butterfly? It is a miraculous sight. The plain, ordinary caterpillar becomes something spectacular. A transformation, a metamorphosis, has occurs when it emerges from the cocoon. The Christian life is one of transformation, one of metamorphosis, and of regular renewal thereafter. Paul wrote to the church in Rome about transformation: “I appeal
