Theology concerning personhood is a doctrine that finds itself rooted in Trinitarian theology and language. These foundational beliefs have been considered the orthodox stance of the church since its conception. Possessing a Christian worldview of personhood will have profound implications for our world today. Our understanding of the Trinity and personhood is seen in theContinue reading “Who are we?”

Hope in the Judgment
Who can stand against the Judgment of God? No one. The nations of Israel and Judah learned this the hard way. The northern kingdom, Israel, had 19 kings who were all fundamentally evil and turned the country farther and farther from God. One of them, King Ahab, was perhaps the worst Israelite King of allContinue reading “Hope in the Judgment”
Protecting ministers from narcissism
C.S. Lewis calls pride the “great sin” and “the essential vice.” Scripture teaches that through the “pride of life” (1 John 2:16) we can be tempted into sin. There are even more passages show a disdain for hubris (excessive pride and self-confidence) and the need for humility. There is a healthy level of narcissism thatContinue reading “Protecting ministers from narcissism”
Strategy for Change
Strategic planning is a place some will not venture. In the Church, it is the pseudo-spiritual that see no basis for the practice of the organization. Addressing the Church’s unique ministry context is required for Church leaders. Proverbs 19:21 states, “There are many devices in a man’s heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, thatContinue reading “Strategy for Change”
Faith for Change

In the previous blog post, we ended with a prayer to receive a burden and inContinue reading “Faith for Change”

SOM: Blessed are they which are persecuted
“Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophetsContinue reading “SOM: Blessed are they which are persecuted”
SOM: Blessed are the Peacemakers
“Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.” – Matthew 5:9 It is estimated that there has been a little over 260 years of peace in all of recorded history. While there are many causes for conflict, we still desire to have peaceful resolutions. Now, we find Jesus referring toContinue reading “SOM: Blessed are the Peacemakers”
SOM: Blessed are the Pure in Heart
“Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.” – Matthew 5:8 If one thing is clear in the Sermon on the Mount, it is that the Lord is concerned with more than outward cleanliness and show. He has emphasized the spiritual life of His people in comparable ways to the physical. Poor,Continue reading “SOM: Blessed are the Pure in Heart”
