Written by Associated Press | Friday, September 14, 2012

How Christians Should Engage Latter-day Saints

Evangelical “how-to” sermons are not going to reach our LDS neighbors

Written by Russell Moore | Friday, September 14, 2012

We must remember this when we welcome our LDS neighbors over for dinner, or when we lovingly spend an evening with diligent Mormon missionaries. When divine revelation is presented in all of its Christocentric glory, there is a longing within us for this story. That’s because it is true. And more than that, it is the truth, and the way, and the life

The Gay Protest That Encountered the Love of God

Church lovingly welcomes gay protestors at a worship service

Written by Michael Brown | Thursday, September 13, 2012

“As the pastor of FIRE Church, I just want you to know that you’ll be greeted with the same love and compassion as we always endeavor to show anyone–you are more-than-welcome! You make mention of the ‘hate’ that we show. Yet, in all our years here we’ve only desired to reach out with love to... Continue Reading

So, You’re Getting a New Pastor

10.5 Don’ts and Do’s You Won’t Hear at His Installation Service.

Written by Pete Hurst | Tuesday, September 11, 2012

5. Don’t call your pastor on his day off, unless it is an emergency. If someone has had a heart attack, if the church is on fire, go ahead and call him. Otherwise, leave him alone for things that can just as easily be handled on another day.

Russian Authorities demolish Pentecostal Church

Written by Nina Achmatova, AsiaNews | Monday, September 10, 2012

The demolition took place on the night of September 6, on alleged court order. But the community had not been given prior notice. Fears that similar cases may affect other denominations.

Faith in Liberal Christianity?

As Christianity finds fresh life from Latin America to Asia, why is liberal Christianity in America rapidly dying?

Written by Benjamin Carver | Sunday, September 9, 2012

In recent decades, liberals have increasingly exchanged the historic theological truths of the faith for what sociologist Christian Smith calls “moralistic, therapeutic deism.” Instead of a message of sin and forgiveness through the work of Christ on the cross, they have communicated a therapeutic message of social action and cultural tolerance. Moreover, their identity often... Continue Reading

Lutherans Latest to Reject New NIV Bible Over Gender Language

Allegation: The inclusive language in NIV 2011 raises questions about the particularity of biblical revelation and undermines the saving revelation of Christ as the promised Savior of humankind.

Written by Audrey Barrick, Christian Post | Sunday, September 9, 2012

The Mysterious Hand of God in the Global Realignment of Christianity

Out of evil God is bringing good. Nothing, no pastor, priest, bishop or archbishop can stop it. It is happening across North America

Written by David W. Virtue | Thursday, September 6, 2012

This is an example of the direct intervention of an African Anglican archbishop on US soil in order to lay the groundwork and foundation for orthodox Anglicanism on these shores. There is not a thing the US Episcopal Church can do about it. They can grind their teeth, yell, and scream to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Anglican Consultative Council about violating boundaries, but it will all fall on deaf ears. The Nigerians have landed

A church that is teachable brings its leaders joy. A church or church member who is not robs them of joy. It’s that simple

Written by Erik Raymond | Wednesday, September 5, 2012

This type of thing has a long legacy. Consider how Diotrephes liked to put himself first and stir up division. How did he do this? He did not submit to the teaching of the Apostles (3 John vv. 9-10). He was unteachable.
