Pastors: Ambiguity harms your sheep!
Last night Northpoint Community Church Pastor Andy Stanley tweeted this: Does he not know how his glib attitude and non-answers deeply cuts the hearts of the Body of Christ? This is what a friend of ours posted on our Facebook Page this morning: See, Pastor Stanley, your ambiguity–in a sermon no less– over whether [...]
The Matthew Vines video ~ and a response
People are calling it an “eye-opener.” A “mind-changer.” And perhaps you will, too. Lot’s of folks including Christian pastors have been considering a video from a 21-year-old gay man, and whether they should evolve their minds about what Scripture says homosexuality. A new video from Matthew Vines is influencing many minds and hearts to wonder [...]
The tentacles of apostasy: No accidents here
There is a dark storm is brewing over a new controversy that has put one well-known mega church pastor in the spotlight over whether homosexuality is a sin. I’m saddened to mention it, because many people love Andy Stanley of Northpoint Community Church, and have read his books. Why are Pastor Stanley’s views of homosexuality [...]
The new paradigm at Northpoint Church begs the question
I share this story because the tidal wave of acceptance of gay marriage is past the groundswell stage, and mega-churches around the world are opening wide the gates. I found an article from across the pond on the Clerical Whispers site absolutely fascinating, and horrifying: Gay marriage: this is a battle the Churches will lose [...]

My comments this morning are directed at men and the need for men to step up and become real leaders at home and at church. First, if you’re a man who doesn’t think of yourself as a leader, think again. You are a leader—that’s how God created you. So you’re already a leader and there [...]
Why men aren’t leading at Church and home
The secular culture paints men as stupid and weak, or worldly and lecherous. Many Christian men mirror what the culture says men are to be. Their exterior fence looks clean on Sundays, but families often see the unpainted, raw side. The Bible paints a much different role for men within their families, the culture and [...]
How offensive? Jesus shirt gets teen kicked out of school
“If the T-shirt had read, ‘My Life is wasted without Jesus,’ that would have been fine.”
A Church in Decline?
I see a striking parallel to the decline of America as a nation and American Christianity. America was founded on a document called the Constitution which recognized God grants all rights. But over the past 50 years the constitution is being discounted and rewritten by progressives who find it outdated. Christians have the Bible as [...]
A World, and a Church in Chaos
Today’s news headlines are pointing to a world in utter chaos. As governments collide and people rise up to challenge the status quo, where does the Church stand in all of this? Are we losing our focus on making disciples, or are we letting the world shape the Church? Today we’re examining the similarities between [...]
