Did you know you were created to work?

Last updated on: April 10, 2015 at 1:46 pm   By Guest Contributor

By Erisa Mutabazi Most people spend the majority of their waking hours working, yet have never fully grasped the idea that God created us to work.

Why do the New Testament and the Old Testament treat wealth differently?

Last updated on: April 14, 2015 at 12:38 pm   By Oikonomia Network

Keith Reeves Note: This article is the second of a three-part series on economic production and Jubilee in the Old and New Testaments. Read the first part here. Why does the New Testament seem so much more negative about wealth than the Old? As this series of articles turns from Jubilee in the Old Testament to the New Testament, we are turning from one historical context – with its own set of background conditions and assumptions – to a different... Read more

Not everyone can be a leader

Last updated on: April 8, 2015 at 9:33 am   By Guest Contributor

By Stephen Milliken Confession: I have a problem with leadership rhetoric. I do not like how I have heard it discussed, practiced, or even taught. For years, I’ve had a rocky relationship with the word and I couldn’t quite pinpoint the problem. Still, the uneasy feeling continues to fester to such an extent that it demands my time and attention. Our understanding and practice of leadership and influence, somewhere down the line, became conflated and confused. Not “everyone can be... Read more

Do you believe #Easter is real? Then prove it

Last updated on: April 7, 2015 at 3:15 pm   By Guest Contributor

By Mike Coyner I hope you had a happy Easter, and I hope that your pastor did not try to explain Easter or prove Easter, but rather proclaimed Easter. That was the advice of my preaching professor in seminary who said: “Don’t try to explain Easter, it is a mystery. Don’t try to prove Easter, it cheapens the experience. Just proclaim Easter and repeat the ancient affirmation: Christ is risen. Christ is risen indeed.” That was and is good advice... Read more

The most important step to finding your calling

Last updated on: April 6, 2015 at 12:24 pm   By Guest Contributor

By Dan Cumberland She was burnt out. I could see the pain in her eyes as we spoke. Her situation was tough: her supervisor was not supportive. She could barely get out the door in the mornings. She was having breakdowns on Sunday nights in anticipation of the week ahead. It was heart breaking to hear her talk about it. She shouldn’t have to endure such an intensely difficult situation, yet this is where she was at the time. She... Read more
