Five ways to support missions when you’re broke!

Posted 18 June 2010 | By admin | Categories: Ministry Friends, Missional, Young Adults | 2 Comments

How do you support your friends in ministry when you are practically broke? I’ve been asking that question recently; not because I’m broke, but because I want to do more to encourage my friends that are in full time ministry. I want to be involved, but I’m not sure my check for $10 is  going [...]

Missio Christi – Prayer – Luke 11:1a – Part 4 If God be near a church, it must pray. And if He be not there, one of the first tokens of His absence will be a slothfulness in prayer. ~ Charles Spurgeon [1] When God is near to a people, the people want to talk to God. [...]

Why I Wrote This Book I had two main goals in writing Preaching and the Emerging Church. First, I wanted to give pastors a tool to judge the preaching advice coming out of the movement. I made my assessment based on the biblical pattern and precepts that support expositional/text-driven preaching (Neh 8:8), which by nature [...]

From Doctrine: Click | View Series Hebrews reveals that Jesus’ ministry as our priest did not end with his return to heaven.
