John Piper – Emerging church leaders lives are in shambles because of a low view of truth

Last updated on: September 19, 2012 at 7:49 pm By Kurt Willems

I realize that this video is a couple of years old, but it still has value for conversation about the “emerging church.” John Piper may or may not be right about the “emerging church” no longer being talked about ten years from now (at least in the form it took during the past decade). But the way he characterizes it, including the “shambles” of its leaders because of a low view of truth, is just flat out unfair. He mischaracterizes... Read more

If I wasn’t Anabaptist, I’d probably become Anglican – Reflections on an ancient-future faith orientation

Last updated on: July 2, 2014 at 11:53 am By Kurt Willems

The more I’ve experienced the worship of high church liturgy, the more I’ve found myself caught up in the mystery of God’s love. I love the smells and bells of a Catholic, Orthodox, or Anglican/Episcopal worship gathering. In fact, if I wasn’t Anabaptist… I’d probably become Anglican. Read more

Randomness and Evolution: Is There Room for God?

Last updated on: September 13, 2012 at 7:51 am By Kurt Willems

I’ve written extensively on why I believe that evolution and Christian faith are indeed compatible. For some Christians, this is a controversial statement, but most evangelical scholars would agree: somehow God used evolutionary processes to create the cosmos. Here’s my series of articles on the issue: Evolving Evangelicalism. If this is a new idea to you and you think I’ve “gone too far” (as many have accused), check out this quote by Billy Graham: I don’t think that there’s any... Read more

Shane Hipps on Faith and Technology on iPhone 5 announcement day (#iPhone5)

Last updated on: September 12, 2012 at 8:17 am By Kurt Willems

Today is the expected “big announcement” from Apple regarding the iPhone 5. As a person involved heavily in social media, this actually excites me on some levels. I think that any time a new technology comes out it’s exciting. This iPhone is rumored to have new features such as: a 4 inch diagonal screen, slim casing, faster chip, new adaptor, and the new Passsbook (a program that puts all of your gift cards in one app). Many of the... Read more

My appeal to complementarians – Stop telling me to calm down

Last updated on: September 10, 2012 at 11:22 pm By Kurt Willems

I am getting a bit frustrated with my complementarian friends and their propensity to want to suggest that egalitarians are not respecting scripture. I have been in several debates and found that as soon as I raise a decent point they either claim that they are trying to be scriptural or that we need to agree to disagree for the sake of unity (which is almost like saying ‘calm down’) In particular I am bemused at the way complementarians do...

It’s time to Heal the Gospel of God the Moral Monster

Last updated on: September 10, 2012 at 8:18 am By Kurt Willems

The new book *Healing the Gospel* (Cascade Books, 2012) challenges the way many of us have learned to understand the cross, and at the same time the hurtful image of God behind it, arguing instead for a view based on God’s enemy love and restorative justice. In this post, author Derek Flood answers some questions about the controversial new book: 1. Healing the Gospel is focused on understanding the meaning of the cross. Why should the average Christian reader... Read more
