Why Christians Have a Bad Name Sometimes

I did chuckle though.

There is a difference to being all things to all people and being wierd…

Seriously though, we are Christ’s messengers and need to stop trying to draw people into our gatherings by signs; rather, the Church should go into the community and bring them back with them.

I’ll go into more detail in a post coming up soon.

Grace and Peace.

So, I love Disney movies but, there is a reoccuring heretical theme throughout most of them. In one of my favorite sing alongs, “True to you heart” with the great Stevie Wonder and kind of great Nick Lachey, a line is uttered, “Your heart can tell you no lies.” True, if God is at the center of your “heart” but more often than not, our hearts are not fixed on Christ. By the logic of follwing you heart you can justify any actions and sins that occur in your life. I’m not dissing the song, it has an awesome bass line but, “when things are getting crazy, and you don’t know where to start keep on believing”…in Christ.

Sorry Readers

Wednesday, March 25th, 2009

Sorry it has been a while since my last post, last week I was gone on Spring Break and I took a break from everything, which ironically, I’m going to speak on.

I’m a pretty regular reader of RagamuffinSoul (and I recommend it) recently Carlos had a video on stillness.  For me the end of the semester is approaching and life is busy.  When I look how Jesus reacted to busyness and commotion and compare it to my life, and other Americans’, I see a drastic difference–solitary and solace.  Often Jesus would withdraw from situations to pray.

When your life gets busy, step back, remember the Kingdom and the Grace you have received and talk to God.

Grace and Peace.

Morals

Tuesday, March 10th, 2009

A recent post by Harry McCall was trying to refute the idea moral truth comes from God.

In the post, he reports of a minister failing at these “morals” when he committed a crime.  However, as a believer I look to God for my standard of truth–not men.
