Jesus Says Mine: November 2014
http://jesussaysmine.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 15, 2014. Travis Cottrell Unknowingly Settled the Arminian vs. Calvinism Debate. Well, at least he did for my husband, Martin, and me. Some people play Eye-Spy or Punch-buggy on road trips. Not me and my guy. We play, "What's a 5 Point Calvinist and Are You One? Although I've been a Christian for over 15 years now, I couldn't explain the difference between Arminianism and Calvinism. While I maintained a speed that was only slightly. It was actually a bit unsettling. You gave me a song,.

Jesus Says Mine: United We Stand Divided We Fall; The Role of The Church To Prevent Genocide*
http://jesussaysmine.blogspot.com/2014/12/united-we-stand-divided-we-fall-role-of.html
Monday, December 15, 2014. United We Stand Divided We Fall; The Role of The Church To Prevent Genocide*. This was originally posted in September 2014. In light of recent events that have caused some to respond with violence, hate, and fear, I thought it appropriate to re-post. Remember the Holocaust in Germany. And the 1994 genocide in Rwanda. I have noticed a few similarities:. 1 Their political and government leaders built up resentment between people groups. 3 Millions of people died. Is huge. Big...

http://jesussaysmine.blogspot.com/2014/12/reflections-on-churchs-response-to.html
Saturday, December 27, 2014. Where Do We Go From Here? Reflections After The Funeral. Today, Officer Rafael Ramos, slain with his partner Officer Wenjian Liu on December 20th, was laid to rest by his family. Thousands of police officers from around the country attended. A nation is mourning. And hopefully, reflecting. Almost immediately, Christian pastors, leaders, and para-church organizations were tweeting and posting comments and organizing conferences to show that they wanted to mourn with those who ...

Jesus Says Mine: October 2013

Monday, October 28, 2013. Quest to Fulfill the Cultural Commission. When asked, "What do you think about? Don't we salivate at the chance to give our opinion? We'll even give it when we are not asked as evidenced on any social media forum. But are we informed thinkers? As a Christian, I'm supposed to be transformed in my way of thinking by renewing my mind. Doing this will help me develop the mind of Christ. Shouldn't I find out what God thinks and then live that. And we are his stewards. You are invited...

Jesus Says Mine: May 2014

Friday, May 23, 2014. Consumerism Converts Don't Make Dedicated Disciples. Why do we Christians keep putting so much emphasis on the number of baptisms or people in the pews when Barna. Stats show year after year that those same people. Don’t have transformed hearts? With the best of intentions and worst of cultural influence, much of modern church outreach is focused on getting the people in the doors. If the American Church is really being salt and light, why do the spheres in our communities barely sh...

Friday, November 29, 2013. An Early Christmas Present. The Colson Center has offered one copy of "Mere Christianity" as a gift to a reader of the "Jesus Says, 'Mine' blog". Just send me a comment here, on Facebook or Twitter if you're interested in being in a drawing for the book. Think of it as an early Christmas present. You can keep it and read it yourself, or share with someone who doesn't know Christ. It's exciting to imagine what God might do with it. Thursday, November 28, 2013. Friendly people in...

Jesus Says Mine: June 2014

Monday, June 9, 2014. Discovering Secret Treasure Hidden In Plain Sight. I discovered the secret to being in proper relationship to God. The biggest discovery was that it isn't such a secret after all, it was hidden in plain view. Reading throughout Scripture, there are so many commandments and ordinances, so many warnings about obeying God, believing God, remembering his commands, being holy. it just seems like so much pressure! We love. The obedience will come later. Be very, very careful WHO. I have l...

Jesus Says Mine: March 2014

Tuesday, March 4, 2014. Which Jesus Do You Know? Reasoning Through the Cake and Cross Controversy. On the surface, it may not seem like a big deal but consider this:. How you answer this question speaks volumes about who you think Jesus is and who you think you are in relationship to him. Jesus you worship matters for eternity. Is it the one of the Bible or the one who has been fashioned in your. The Jesus you fashion in your. 8217;…Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Those who know Jesus, ...

Friday, October 17, 2014. Solidarity Made Easy: Standing With Pastors and For Freedom. If you haven't heard yet, 5 Houston pastors were subpoenaed. For their sermons and other correspondence sent to their church members in an effort to find language against, in part, the Mayor herself and homosexuality. The infringement on the First Amendment is unprecedented. But it very well could set a precedent for future action. That's where you and I come in. Need to see they have " awakened the giant. I join with ...

Friday, January 31, 2014. My Brother's Story of Becoming an American. You know that rare moment when you first meet someone think, "I'm going to love him forever"? No, not that kind of love. The kind of love you have for a brother in Christ who shares your deepest convictions about God and Country and stands shoulder-to-shoulder with you for both. The next day we shared stories over breakfast. I want to share one of them with you. It would mean so much to me. How is my new Sister? My family in the Philip...
