Y’all need to listen to the man of God! Seriously.

The co-mingling of partisan politics and the local church will, in the end, help the politics and hurt the church.

“Imagine the words of Scripture as coals that glow and flare out when God’s holy breath, invited by my engagement, once again stirs them, so that my embrace of Scripture is a participation with the unfolding mystery of grace.” -Peri Zahnd

Pastoring in two worlds today.

I spent the first part of my day with men from our in-person congregation and then followed that up with a Zoom call with members of our online congregation. I love these people!

Jesus had one primary theme in his preaching and teaching—the kingdom of God. Healing the sick was a demonstration of his administration.

The government of God is marked by healing broken bodies and healing broken souls.

Learn to think like Jesus.
Not the tyranny of a subtle self-obsession
But the freedom of a daily God-profession
Not my will, but yours be done
