A Wolf in Wolf’s Clothing

Last updated on: August 8, 2016 at 10:13 am By Guest Contributor

by Robert Morrison Our Lord warns us against the wolf in sheep’s clothing. The implication there is that, surely, we could discern the danger of a wolf in wolf’s clothing without having to be warned. For some of our leaders, alas, not so much. Trump is that wolf in wolf’s clothing. My view is being challenged by one of my best friends in Annapolis. He’s a former Ohio State political science professor who is also a successful international businessman. “You... Read more

The Leaders We Deserve

Last updated on: August 8, 2016 at 6:34 am By Guest Contributor

The root problem in America is not “out there” – it’s within the walls of our churches. The control, gossip, slander, hypocrisy and lack of love for God and people has become so common-place, so normal, that we have finally succumbed. We’re okay with it now. But God isn’t. If we are really honest, we have to admit that the leaders we’re getting look exactly like us. Read more

Check Out What Rick Warren is Saying about Ben-Hur

Last updated on: August 4, 2016 at 11:14 am By Editor

Pastor Rick Warren really digs the new Ben Hur movie. And he’s not the only one. Warren really enjoys the tension between the “worldview of Rome” and the “worldview of Jesus.” What has always made Ben-Hur such an inspiring character, of course, is the pressures he feels being caught in between those two worlds. Denny Wyberg of Young Life highlights a similar conflict between revenge and loving one’s enemies. This “most dangerous message in the world” fired Erwin McManus’ imagination. The NAE’s... Read more

Why Me?

Last updated on: July 25, 2016 at 10:23 am By Guest Contributor

While consciously scorning health-and-wealth theology, I have unwittingly imbibed some of its tenets. This includes a presumption that so long as I obey God and live a decent life, I will be protected from harm. Read more

Letting God Redeem the Wounds of Your Past

Last updated on: July 7, 2016 at 12:45 pm By Guest Contributor

By Shawn Thornton My childhood was in some ways the typical experience of a boy growing up in the 1970s, but it was far from normal. My mother suffered the lasting effects from a car accident she was in when she was fourteen. After emerging from a three-month- long coma, Mom was left with deep physical, emotional, and mental challenges. Those challenges showed up in our little house on Victory Road in Mishawaka, Indiana, in some horrific ways. At nearly fifty years of age,... Read more

Ramadan: A Time for Hate or Love?

Last updated on: June 15, 2016 at 5:08 pm By Guest Contributor

by Jim Denison Ramadan is a time for ISIS to hate. It’s a time for us to love. Last month, ISIS spokesman Abu Mohammed al-Adnani called for Ramadan to become a “month of hurt” in the U.S. and Europe. In Orlando we witnessed the first response to his call to terrorism. It is not likely to be the last. According to CNN, U.S. law enforcement agencies have 1,000 active investigations into U.S. homegrown jihadists, eighty percent of which involve ISIS... Read more

We Can Change History

Last updated on: June 7, 2016 at 8:29 am By Guest Contributor

by Gary Edmonds How does a little girl who grows up in a place where no one believes girls should go to school end up becoming a doctor and help transform her hometown? Mayra Mamani was 7-years-old when her carpenter father, mother and five siblings moved to a rural area of Bolivia called Horno Ck’asa during hard times. Mayra remembers arriving at a desolate place with no clean water, electricity or sewage services. “The neighborhood was dirty, there were... Read more

21st Century Mission: Graduating Families to Non-Violence

Last updated on: June 7, 2016 at 8:24 am By Guest Contributor

by Gary Edmonds Sitting in the workshop listening to the instructor talk about positive parenting, Nancy began to cry. She was there to learn the basics of violence prevention, but the abuse she endured at the hands of her parents while growing up flooded in. She was compelled to share a troubling story with the group: not long ago, she had returned to her childhood town and she had beaten up her father to repay him for horrific years of... Read more

From Mission to Graduation: A New Model for 21st Century Missions

Last updated on: June 7, 2016 at 8:18 am By Guest Contributor

by Gary Edmonds Increasing food security, water security, and a place to keep a child warm and safe — we see these as the church mission model for the 21st Century. Some of the most successful and compassionate work the U.S. public and private sectors undertake – often together — is that which secures mothers and fathers with the ability to care for their children into the future. Anyone who is a parent knows, there is nothing more important than... Read more
