One Thing Some Republicans and Modern Church Leaders Share

Last updated on: May 15, 2015 at 6:01 am By Bill Blankschaen

As I pondered a couple of seemingly unrelated things — Establishment Republicans and Seeker-friendly Church Leaders — I stumbled onto a similarity between the two — a lack of moral courage. And a reason why. Establishment Republicans try to be liked by those they deem to be in the middle. They crave the acceptance of supposed Independents who they think are seeking likable, lovable politicians who just want to get along with everyone. They think that these Independent voters want...

Singing in Church with Elvis, Aerosmith, and Bonhoeffer

Last updated on: January 17, 2016 at 12:34 pm By Bill Blankschaen

I once actually stood in church and sang the words, “Blah, Blah, Blah.” And no one could tell the difference. No one could hear anything anyways because the music was so loud. Just being authentic here, but with the lyrics as simplistic as they were, I couldn’t even tell the difference. I have to wonder if God noticed. As some of you know from my post Why I’ve Stopped Singing in Your Church, I struggle to reconcile much of what... Read more

Is Your Story Stealing God’s Glory?

Last updated on: May 18, 2015 at 7:23 pm By Bill Blankschaen

Sometimes it’s not the mind-blowing miracles of Jesus that give us pause, awesome though they may be. Sometimes it’s what Jesus said while performing the mighty work that leaves us even more stunned. Just before raising her brother, Lazarus, from the dead, Jesus reminded Martha, “If you believe, you will see God’s glory” (John 11:40). Implied in his statement is that the opposite is equally true: if you don’t believe, you will not see God’s glory. When we fail to believe, it’s not... Read more

What to Do When Church Leaders Sin

Last updated on: May 18, 2015 at 7:21 pm By Bill Blankschaen

Pastors are perfect people, right? Church leaders don’t sin do they? Some of you laughed when you read that. Especially you pastors and church leaders who know all too well how human you are. But others of you immediately thought of painful situations caused by a church leader’s sin. You remembered the destruction caused by it and — what makes it worse — the frustration you felt when no one seemed willing to do anything about it. A recent comment... Read more

What Makes Your Story Worth Telling

Last updated on: May 18, 2015 at 7:30 pm By Bill Blankschaen

Do you want your life to matter? I do. I suspect you do too. But it won’t happen by accident. Living a story worth telling, one that gets talked about not only in this temporary life but the lasting life to come, requires intentional effort. And it’s not easy. Nothing worth doing ever is. But comfort can never achieve what courage dares to try. [Tweet this!] We say we want adventure, but we run from risk. We say we want... Read more
