    Power: Three Ways Christians Can get it Wrong

    September 30, 2016September 30, 2016

    “Because the ultimate expression of power is control.”  I was only half-listening to the TV that I intended to play in the background of our apartment. I’m a Millennial so, of course, I sat on my couch on my phone with the TV playing in the background. Nothing coming through the speakers had piqued my

    Do not Fear, Church | Christian Confidence for Election Season

    August 6, 2016August 7, 2016

    I flicked my phone screen, scrolling down, down, down through an endless feed of political news. Each headline built on the one before it, their all-caps all-bold typeface seemingly screaming at me from the screen. One candidate’s aggressive proposal to further abortions in our nation, the other’s ongoing dismissal of those who are different than

Some of this has been massively beneficial to the church, as the concept has expanded, broadened, and served to bring more people into the conversation.

    Why We Love to Hate Women’s Ministry

    Women’s ministry: two little words that evoke such emotive responses. Over the last several weeks I have been discussing women’s ministry with several of the women in our local body.

    Is Church Optional for Christians?

    April 13, 2016May 18, 2016

    I remember hustling out of my little dorm room one Sunday morning. I was terribly late (per usual) for church, and it was always a touch embarrassing to show up late as a Bible school student. As I slipped on one shoe, I reached under the bed with a thrashing hand, hoping it would find

    Grace to Believe | A Sunday Morning Prayer

    February 28, 2016May 18, 2016

    The orations roll off our tongues with tradition and ease.   We believe, we do.   We believe.   … in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ His only Son, our Lord …   We believe, we do.   But Sundays have a way of hastening to end,

    Does Church Membership Really Matter?

    March 29, 2015December 30, 2016

    Recently, my husband and I chose to go through the membership process at our church. We had been attending the local body for several months, but when the topic of church membership came up I hardly gave it a second thought. I knew the stance of the church on most theological topics, and it felt
