Inspired To Serve

What drove Paul to serve? His life was one of obedience, but it wasn't a have-to obedience. He had caught God's vision & purpose for the world. Three motivations that drove Paul were: The fear of God, not the scared kind of fear but one of reverence and awe, worship and respect. He had a... Read More

Hope for the Church

The church is under constant attack these days, which can be very discouraging. Matthew 16:13-19 states the beginning of the church. It was founded on Peter's belief that Jesus was the anointed one and the gates of hell would not prevail against it. In Daniel 2, Nebuchadnezzar wanted his astrologers to tell him what he...

Amidst Sarai's grief over being barren, yet her mistreatment of her slave, Abram’s passivity and frustration with God, we see Hagar, the forsaken one, stumbling on the realization that God is still watching over her! True... Read More

All Anabaptist beliefs intersect in the way Anabaptists do church. In their view of the church, we see their understanding of salvation (saints), baptism (believers), relation to sinners and society (separated), their sense of responsibility for each other (disciplined and shared goods), and their commitment to shared values, space, goals, and commitments. For Anabaptists, a... Read More
