Leadership and the downside of the “Missional” movement

Today we are taking our temperature in the Church. Where is the majority of leadership in the Church from o – 10? Consider: We’ve gone from fact-based doctrine to feeling-based experiences. We’re teaching people how to “hear God’s voice” through direct revelation rather than reading His breathed-out Word of Scripture. Younger, inexperienced men are now [...]

In these increasingly uncertain times, we are seeing a whole new level of worldliness in the Church. We seem to have adopted a “seekermergent” model that focuses on being relevant to those who don’t know Christ, by looking exactly like the culture.

Must-see video: Why “Kingdom Circles” teaching is blasphemous

Should Christians expect to hear God’s voice?

So contends Gary Gilley, in his review of the book, Hearing God, by Dallas Willard.  Willard believes that Christians should hear God’s voice apart [...]

When hard times come

When tragedy strikes we often hear Christians say, “I don’t know how I possibly could get through this without my faith in Jesus Christ.”  He is our anchor and our Rock: Psalms 50:15 …call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me. Hard times will come. We [...]
