Spiritual Abolitionists
Last updated on: February 1, 2012 at 4:08 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
We all know of the famous boxer Muhammed Ali. But do we know what his name was before he changed it to Muhammed Ali? It was Cassius Clay, named after his father, who was named after a famous abolitionist during the time of the Civil War. The original Cassius Clay lived in Kentucky and decided to spend his political career freeing slaves, as an abolitionist. He owned a lot of land in Madison County, called the Glade. There, he...

Kairos: Sacred Time, part 2
Last updated on: January 16, 2012 at 6:37 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
Galatians 6.10: Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers. We might consider this verse an axiom, an unquestionable truth, or a rule of life. What makes it different than other rules of life? Think about the Golden Rule. Various forms of the Golden Rule are found in many religions throughout time. Other than Christ, Confucius spoke the most famous Golden Rule. A World Religions... Read more

Kairos: Sacred Time, part 1
Last updated on: January 10, 2012 at 10:00 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
This time of year, we’re all thinking of time: Father Time, New Year’s Resolutions, Bucket Lists, etc. Actually, by this point in the year, we’re often regretting the fact that we’ve already given up on our New Year’s Resolutions. Some of us are participating in special prayer events or fasts that our Churches facilitate at the beginning of each year. With the New Year comes a fresh new start, the possibility of change, and the opportunity to reflect on what... Read more

Impact Appalachia
Last updated on: December 21, 2011 at 10:02 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
Matthew 25.31-46 is not in other Gospels, which I believe magnifies the power of the passage more. When a Gospel writer includes an untold story, it’s like unpacking a new truth of Christ. Certainly this story reveals a powerful truth. The truth is that people will be separated based on how they served Christ in life. He’ll say: I was hungry and you fed me, I was thirsty and you gave me a drink, I was homeless... Read more

Pentecostals Lead The Way In Brazil
Last updated on: October 2, 2019 at 1:38 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
When I think of Brazil, I think about the Amazon, piranhas, and the rain forests. I think about the fact that Brazilians speak Portuguese instead of Spanish. I think of Sergio Mendes and all the great music that has come out of Brazil over the years. Neymar, Brazil’s Player of the Year I think of World Cup Soccer. Brazil will host the World Cup in 2014. Brazil has won the World Cup more than any other nation. Currently, there are... Read more

“Singles in the US,” Vernell Ingle
Last updated on: August 28, 2010 at 8:01 pm By Rev. Jared V. Ingle
Last week, we were on the road, so the author (Pastor Vernell Ingle) guest lectured on Sunday morning for our Young Adults. Here are some of his reflections: “Singles in the U.S.” He started with these stats * • Singles are defined as adults who have never been married or divorced, or are widowed • 43% of all Americans over 18 are single • 61% of them have never said “I do” • 46% of American households are maintained by a...
