Poor Jadon. His life as a preacher’s kid has started early. Now, for the record, I did ask his permission before I used his story in my sermon Sunday. He grunted at me – which I took as a “yes” (two grunts are ‘no’). As some of you know, I am now preaching the fourth [...] “The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” –John 3:8 I don’t know what is happening – but the Wind is blowing.

So how is your modernity mind working? It is freaking out with all kinds of scientific data with words like “bone”, “blood veins”, “nerves”, “flesh” and “cells”? If you [...] I had the pleasure of talking to Tri Robinson (senior pastor of the Vineyard Boise) last week and he mentioned that he recently wrote a position paper about the future of the Vineyard Movement.

It also means that they try to model their lives after Jesus: [...] This week there is a great conversion on DeepChurch.co.uk about leaders who limp. Or, in different words, leaders who have been bruised by life and have struggle to follow the narrow path laid out by Jesus versus leaders of perfection that seem to have everything together. Feel free to wonder over to DeepChurch and join with [...] It is 10:38 PM on Saturday night…my wife and son are asleep (or soon will be). Me? I am sitting in front of a computer listening to LiveIreland Radio and trying to write a paper. As much as I love this class and as much as I am learning…I’m not sure if the timing was all that [...] There have been a ton of political noise about the new Arizona law; so much in fact, I that have been having a hard time telling truth from stretched-truth.
