Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Saturday, September 23, 2006. One of the ways we used to control weeds that avoided using environmentally harmful herbicides, was to aerate the soil and "over-seed." My partners and I found that if we did that in the Fall, we had very few weeds, if any, in our lawns the next Spring. There was not any room for weeds to sprout up. I know that there are lyrics that are objectionable in music these...

I am having a conversation full of my usual philosophical hoo haw with a friend of mine. He is working very hard on developing a philosophy of mission that will encourage the full mission of The Salvation Army. I have asked him what he really sees as the "full mission" of The Salvation Army. I just happen to think if we do any...

He also states, that outside of the mega church movement, local congregations are declining at alarming rate. So here is my question, what is next? I think we are perfectly positioned by heritage to include these revolutionaries in our mission. Do we radically change the way we do business now? Do we need to redefine church? What do you think? So here is my dilemma...

Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Sunday, July 30, 2006. I wondered about this. Here I have been sitting in meetings where we are to worship and hear from God and heard very little of a spiritual connection. On the other hand, I go to a lecture and hear about spiritual renewal that takes place in the fight for justice for all. Is it that we have lost our hands-on Gospel in many places in the church? What do you think? The point...

Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Friday, March 31, 2006. Is Christianity under attack? In recent years there seems to be a mantra raised among evangelicals that Christianity is under attack. I recently saw a debate on this between the the Reverend Al Sharpton and Tony Perkins on this matter. Christians also have cited that rulings against placing nativity scenes or having the Ten Commandments displayed in public places as sign...

Sorry if you have missed my blog. We have had a couple of very tough days. There has been a tragedy of sorts in our family. Everyone is fine! I would rather not get into the situation now, but everyone will come out just fine with some prayer, a great deal of patience and perserverence and a good insurance adjuster! Honestly, this is ...

Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Monday, May 29, 2006. Especially, with Army and Christian events I have seen planning done and guests invited not on the basis of who would be the best person to fit our needs or best worship leader, but who would be the best "draw." It almost seems to downplay the importance of the message for the glamor of the messenger. Maybe I am a bit jaded in my thoughts on this. But, I digress. I worry a...

Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Sunday, January 29, 2006. The Divine Rule of Christian Faith and Practice. I hold scripture in high regard. I believe in the inspiration of scripture by God. I do not hold as some of my brethren in Christ that God actually dictated word for word into the hearts of the prophets, Paul and others. I believe He took the opportunity to give an "aha! The verse goes on to talk about how scripture work...

Questions for the Journey. Trying with you to answer questions about Church, faith, life, theology and mission. Wednesday, June 21, 2006. Moving up or moving on? Since the announcement of our new appointments, we have had several people congratulate us on our new assignments. That is a good thing when they congratulate you on the new challenge and let you know that they are praying for you. So what about this issue of moving up? What keeps us from being carnal about this whole thing? I think I have settl...
