Multisite churches: a sign of hope for the Western Church?

Last updated on: June 13, 2020 at 6:51 am   By Adrian Warnock

I have been allowed early access to the The Leadership Network/Generis Multisite Church Scorecard which releases to the public on Tuesday, March 11th. With the report author’s permission I can share some of the highlights in this article. To be alerted when the full report is available, sign up here. The subject of multisite churches continues to be a controversial one in some circles.  I have previously written on some of the advantages I see in this model, as well as arguing that a... Read more

Adrian speaking on BBC London about Lent with Jumoke Fashola

Last updated on: March 15, 2018 at 9:45 pm   By Adrian Warnock

This morning I had the pleasure of being a guest onBBC London 94.9 – Inspirit with Jumoke Fashola. We spoke about Lent, and one thing that was fascinating is her reaction on behalf of her listeners to the word “sin” We really do live in a world where such simple Christian comments are very controversial. You can listen to the interview right here: Read more

Why silence about controversies should not be read as agreement

Last updated on: June 13, 2020 at 6:51 am   By Adrian Warnock

Just in the past few days both my emails and Twitter stream have contained a few direct questions and challenges. I have had people gloatingly point out to me the story of the death of the latest snake handler to meet his inevitable death, demand my response to the Pope sending Kenneth Copeland a message promoting unity, and ask what I think of Steve Chalke’s article about how he now approaches the Bible. In addition, I have also noticed that David... Read more

Jesus the Great Evangelist: a sermon on John 4

Last updated on: June 13, 2020 at 10:12 am   By Adrian Warnock

Jesus is the model evangelist and we can learn from his example how to get caught up on his mission to seek and save the lost. This is a sermon about the Woman of Samaria in John 4. Brief sermon notes follow the audio. John 4:1-42 We tend to think of Jesus as the Great Shepherd or Pastor, or as the Great Priest, as the Great Apostle of our faith, as the Great Teacher, as the Greatest Prophet of them... Read more

Strange Fire Debate stoked by Grace To You Internet Ministry Coordinator

Last updated on: September 26, 2026 at 5:43 pm   By Adrian Warnock

Over on Twitter, and also in the comments section of my recent post about how Christians should behave online, someone who describes himself as a representative of Grace To You (although he has been in touch to make clear that his posts on Twitter are not in his official capacity) has been string up the embers of debate that I have left alone for weeks now.  This is far from over, however, and I see that many people are still... Read more

All we need is love: discussion with Frank Viola about Social Media Principles and Practice for Christians

Last updated on: September 16, 2017 at 6:27 pm   By Adrian Warnock

Frank Viola and I connected online to record this conversation via zoom.us, a tool I am finding very helpful. We spoke about how to approach the Internet, and especially how to approach the arguments that occur online.  We spoke about the risks and benefits of social media.  God’s people do not stop being his people when they launch an Internet browser. Exploring together how God would want us to behave in this brave new world is vital. The conversation was... Read more

God’s Not Dead: The Movie, and a new friend

Last updated on: January 5, 2020 at 7:08 pm   By Adrian Warnock

It seems clear to me that 2014 is going to go down as the year of the religious movie. There are a lot of Hollywood movies this year that are covering various biblical stories, and I must say I am looking forward to all of them. God’s Not Dead is a movie that I had not heard of until a few minutes ago when I connected for the first time with Rice Broocks thanks to my new favourite web video conferencing... Read more

James White vs Michael Brown: Predestination Debate on European Christian TV

Last updated on: March 15, 2018 at 9:35 pm   By Adrian Warnock

Another thing I missed last month was James White and Michael Brown appearing on Revelation TV, one of Europe’s largest Christian TV station. Having said previously that I feel we as evangelicals we have largely failed in our duty to colonise the airwaves, I am thrilled to see these two men I respect accepting this invitation. Like Stetzer and Chandler, these men are not afraid of somehow being “contaminated” despite the broad rejection of Christian TV by so many evangelicals.... Read more

Ed Stetzer, Matt Chandler, and others on TBN

Last updated on: September 16, 2017 at 6:27 pm   By Adrian Warnock

This was one of the things I missed during January when I scaled back my social media commitments dramatically. Matt Chandler, Jefferson Bethke, Priscilla Shirer, Josh Wilsonm and Christ August, who are all solid evangelicals, appeared on special TBN’s Praise the Lord program hosted by Ed Stetzer. The whole program faithfully proclaims the gospel of grace, and is very nicely produced. This video thrilled me. Too many of us in the circles I move in have made a sport of... Read more
