The Relevant Edge: December 2009
http://relevantedge.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Thursday, December 31, 2009. Legalism As It Pertains To.Appearance. You may be thinking, "Wait, isn't this the same as the one you wrote on clothing? That'd be a valid question, but this actually is an entirely different topic, and one I think most of us have lived out if we're honest about it. When someone walks into a church service and they don't look like you, how do you feel about that? The on...

The Relevant Edge: Falling Off The Mountaintop
http://relevantedge.blogspot.com/2010/01/falling-off-mountaintop.html
Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Monday, January 25, 2010. Falling Off The Mountaintop. Ever been to the top of the mountain in your Christian walk? But what happens when you come down? Maybe a better question would be, why do we all fall off the mountaintop? Why don't we do it? Notice I didn't ask why we "can't" do it; I asked why we "don't" do it. I'm calling all of us out here. What is wrong with us that we don't strive...If I'...

The Relevant Edge: February 2010

Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Friday, February 19, 2010. Your Weakness, His Strength? My brother made a comment on the last post I'd been thinking a bit about lately so I want to place a note here to flesh out this thing that can be a problem. The problem is, how do we overcome the limits of our simple minds and recognize that even in our weakness, God can draw strength? You've seen the term "Let go. Let God."? When I went thro...

The Relevant Edge: Livin' In A Box
http://relevantedge.blogspot.com/2010/03/livin-in-box.html
Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Saturday, March 6, 2010. Livin' In A Box. Do you put God in a box? Is that crazy or what? Here I am, a child of the God of the universe, the One who can do anything and created everything, and I doubt His ability to create something good for me? I suspect that, truth be told, it's a little of both, but that ultimately the box we create comes from a lack of understanding His love for us. Let me ...

The Relevant Edge: How Not To Be A Pastor's Wife

Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Monday, January 11, 2010. How Not To Be A Pastor's Wife. Is that a touchy heading or what? Heads up, I'm not interested in discussing anyone's views on women pastors (which would change this to pastor's husband) here, so we'll stick with traditional thought for purposes of this post. Smile If you want to be a bad pastor's wife and have a negative effect on his ministry, never smile. Again, unfo...

The Relevant Edge: If I'm Divorced, Am I Broken?

Whatever it is, it's the truth through my eyes about today's church and what we need to do to reach people. Thursday, February 4, 2010. If I'm Divorced, Am I Broken? When I went through my divorce in 1998, I had a lot of troubling thoughts. My concerns ran the gamut from wondering if I had lost favor in God's eyes to whether I would ever love again to how long it would take to heal from the pain I felt inside. THIS IS NOT SO! God does not make broken stuff! You, just because you've been through divorce, ...
