Disclaimer: About This Blog

THIS BLOG IS: my personal journey of how I am rethinking some of my spiritual beliefs.
THIS BLOG IS NOT: intended to point fingers at people who I think are wrong.
I do not believe the final judgement will be based on how many correct answers we get on a theology exam. I believe many people throughout history have had genuine relationships with God, despite holding questionable beliefs and practices. I make no claim to having it all figured out or being your judge. If we end up disagreeing over these topics I pray we can find a way to demonstrate grace.

Church Metrics



Some good thoughts from Micheal Frost.

How do we measure success in kingdom work? Is it how many baptisms, how many attend church services, how much money is being given?

Were these the measuring sticks to kingdom work in Jesus day?

Growth of a mustard seed may be harder to measure than growth of other trees. It's growth is more random, messy, and out of control.

Purpose of the Church



I just saw this video. I like the connection he makes between the purpose of the nation of Israel and the New Testament Church... to announce and demonstrate to the world that God reigns.
