Evangelism As Invitation to the Journey

Last updated on: July 28, 2018 at 9:35 am By Scot McKnight

By Allan Bevere One Sunday more than a decade ago, the Lectionary reading from the Gospel that morning was from Mark 10 on Jesus’ teaching concerning divorce. Some Pharisees came, and to test him they asked, ‘Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?’ He answered them, ‘What did Moses command you?’ They said, ‘Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of dismissal and to divorce her.’ But Jesus said to them, ‘Because of your hardness of heart he...

O God, The Protector Of All Who Trust In You

Last updated on: July 17, 2018 at 7:51 am By Scot McKnight

O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing is strong, nothing is holy: Increase and multiply upon us your mercy; that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so pass through things temporal, that we lose not the things eternal; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen. BCP Read more

A Second Time

Last updated on: July 28, 2018 at 6:51 am By Scot McKnight

Jesus asked his audiences many questions. What if we stop with Jesus’ questions and let them interrogate us? What if we ponder and pray over Jesus’ questions? Which is exactly what Matthew Croasmun does in his church-friendly and small-group-friendly book, Let Me Ask You A Question: Conversations With Jesus. Organized into five weekday exercises around the one big questions, Croasmun asks these questions: Week 1: What Do You Want Me to Do for You? Week 2: Has No One Condemned You?... Read more

Curious Koala: An inquisitive koala that animal rescuers in Australia said they’ve encountered multiple times before had to be saved yet again – this time from a fence at a power station this week, local media reported. “It wasn’t a great start to the day for this curious who got his head stuck in a fence at our Happy Valley substation,” electricity distributor SA Power...

What Seminary Can’t Teach (Mike Glenn)

Last updated on: July 26, 2018 at 11:54 pm By Scot McKnight

By Mike Glenn What Seminary Can’t Teach You As a senior pastor, I’m fortunate to work with seven younger pastors who lead our different campuses. These young men are energetic, creative and committed to seeing the gospel of Jesus spread throughout their communities in various ways. Did I mention they were young? There are two ways to gain wisdom. First, you can experience an event. If you put your hand on a hot stove, you will gain wisdom – fast.... Read more

Oral Origins of the New Testament (RJS)

Last updated on: July 25, 2018 at 5:23 pm By RJS

In the next chapter of The Lost World of Scripture John Walton and D. Brent Sandy emphasize the oral origins of the New Testament. The written text preserved for us is essential for the church today. Neither John Walton nor Brent Sandy deny this. The recorded witness of the early church and the eyewitnesses to the life, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus are authoritative for the church. They guide our understanding of orthodox Christian faith. But the form the... Read more

Mimi Names Willow’s Problem

Last updated on: August 1, 2018 at 10:05 am By Scot McKnight

From Christians for Biblical Equality By Mimi Haddad On July 24, 2018 The Bible’s Warning to Leaders From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture speaks emphatically about character alignment in leaders. It’s impossible to miss God’s point. Leaders have an impact on lives—sometimes for good and sometimes for harm. We will be held accountable by God when our actions are inconsistent with God’s expectations of leaders (Gal. 5:22-23, 1 Tim. 3:1-14). Passages like Matthew 18:6, Acts 20:28, Romans 2:21-23, and James 3:1 give sober caution to anyone eager to become a teacher... Read more

From Jamin Hüber, at CBE A couple days ago, my wife Jessica and I finished reading a rather depressing book: Biblical Porn: Affect, Labor, and Pastor Mark Driscoll’s Evangelical Empire. It’s an academic work that includes countless interviews, field research, and eyewitness accounts of the dramatic fall of Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill Church. The book does a great job dissecting the factors that led to one of the most notorious pastoral (and moral) tragedies in contemporary American evangelicalism. Truly, it’s difficult... Read more
