Living the Message of Forgiveness by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: February 4, 2011 at 6:36 am By Robert Ricciardelli

One of the hardest things in life is to let go of old hurts. We often say, or at least think: “What you did to me and my family, my ancestors, or my friends I cannot forget or forgive. Holding people’s faults creates walls that hinder our relationship with God and others. Reconciliation is God’s work in us and through us. This message calls us to let go of old hurts, and it is the message our world most needs... Read more

Captivated Thoughts by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: February 3, 2011 at 3:27 am By Robert Ricciardelli

Thoughts are an amazing commodity that we must be conscious of and steward. We must captivate our thoughts while filtering them through our beliefs and values. By aligning our thoughts with principles of the Divine, we grow further towards the image and likeness of God. We must discipline ourselves to choose the thoughts that bring forth life, and the thoughts that brings forth a harvest and fruit that remains. Read more

Self Must Bow to Majesty by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: February 2, 2011 at 5:34 am By Robert Ricciardelli

We often can be polishing sand amongst God’s precious pearls of creation, and become strengthened as we embrace the divine refining process. As we share our unique life, experiences, revelations, and thoughts, we further become one with God and each other, and able to see beyond the limits of self. When we seek to understand the collective wealth of creation, self must bow to the greater wisdom and glory of God. Read more

What’s Your Missing Piece? by Kathie Nelson

Last updated on: February 1, 2011 at 5:29 am By editorconvergingzone

The past is behind us. We are ready for a fresh start and a clean slate. Woo-Hoo! We are focused and ready to roll….Right? Well, maybe not. What is stopping you? What is YOUR missing piece? My latest blog post is not your typical “new year’s” message. I find there are people like me who, after all their planning, visioning, and goal setting still find they are seeking something more….that missing piece! If you’ve had that nagging feeling I am...

Becoming A Safe Place by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: January 31, 2011 at 5:49 pm By Robert Ricciardelli

When we are free from the need to judge or condemn, people will come to us in their vulnerability, and they will let down their protective walls. Being deeply rooted in the love of God, we help people realize that we have no hidden agendas or unspoken intentions, and that our only desire is to love and serve them. People will feel safe simply because we dwell in and exude, a loving and nonjudgmental presence. Read more

Inclusive and Collective Wisdom by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: January 31, 2011 at 1:28 am By Robert Ricciardelli

Be careful of what you think you may know or who you think you may be in the comparison of others. The Kingdom of God is inclusive, and brings value to every life. It has always been God’s plan for us to reveal His fullness as one family. Exclusivity is not of God, religion divides, but the collective Spirit in all of us shared through brilliant minds and hearts, reveal corporate wisdom and love to the glory of God. Read more

Looking Forward to a Bad Stretch of Road by James Ryle

Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 11:45 pm By editorconvergingzone

“But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God.” (Act 20:24) There are some things that require little effort, and yield small results. Many people content themselves to spend their days in just such trivial pursuit. Will you settle for being one of them?... Read more

Robert’s Quotes for the Week (#33) by Robert Ricciardelli

Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 11:30 pm By editorconvergingzone

Saturday, January 29, 2011 Trust That You Belong to God by Robert Ricciardelli When we fully trust that we belong to God and find in Him all that we need for our minds, hearts, and souls, we find true freedom, and can bring freedom to others. Our revelation of God’s loving acceptance of us gives us victory over self-doubt and self-rejection that occasionally rise up to distract or defeat us. God reminds us of this through His Word, through each... Read more

Legitimate Vision by Malcolm Webber

Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 3:46 pm By editorconvergingzone

A useful definition of leadership revolves around “vision,” and has three parts: 1. The leader establishes the vision. 2. He aligns the people in that direction. 3. He motivates and inspires them to move and keep moving in that direction until they fulfill the vision. Viewed from this angle, leadership involves movement toward a vision. This is a helpful way to understand leadership – but only if the vision and its implementation are legitimate. Legitimate Vision A “legitimate” vision... Read more

The Church Jesus is Building by Wayne Jacobsen

Last updated on: January 30, 2011 at 3:23 pm By editorconvergingzone

“What do you think the church is going to look like ten years from now?” I get asked that question almost everywhere I go. People assume that my travels and correspondence give me a wider view of God’s work in the world. And while it may be a bit broader than some, in the grand scheme of things, I interact with a very small slice of Jesus’ followers and even that is a very specific subset drawn by the content...
