Troll Bridge

Troll Bridge

by Robby McAlpine | Oct 8, 2017 | Church Life, Discipleship, Ethics, Forgiveness, Practical Theology

“Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord. “Look after each other so that none of you fails to receive the grace of God. “Watch out that no poisonous root of bitterness grows up to trouble...

by Michael Sterns | Jul 24, 2015 | Church Life, Conflict Resolution, Cultural Engagement, Ethics, Ethnic Reconciliation, Family, Forgiveness, Healing, Immigration, Leadership, Messy Church, Practical Theology, Preaching, Social Justice, The Vineyard Movement

Last week, I wrote on Rich Nathan’s discussion on biblical leadership which he gave at the International Vineyard Conference held in Columbus, Ohio. Now, I will try to highlight another speaker. During the morning session at the conference on Thursday July 9,...

# All In!

by Brad Blocksom | Jun 3, 2015 | Devotionals, Discipleship, Forgiveness, Practical Theology, The Vineyard Movement

Luke 16:9  And I tell you, make friends for yourselves by means of unrighteous wealth, so that when it fails they may receive you into eternal dwellings.  (ESV) The parable of the Unjust Manager has always been one of the most disturbing and difficult to understand...
#PrayingforBaltimore: A Mother’s Love, Embarrassment, & Anger

#PrayingforBaltimore: A Mother’s Love, Embarrassment, & Anger

by Luke Geraty | Apr 28, 2015 | Cultural Engagement, Ethics, Ethnic Reconciliation, Forgiveness, Practical Theology, Social Justice

One of my children once made me so angry that I lost my temper and almost did and said things I would likely forever regret. I remember seeing her face and realizing that for the first time in her life, she was actually scared of me. It immediately chastened my temper...

A Vineyard Approach to Ferguson, Garner, & Racial Tension

by Luke Geraty | Dec 5, 2014 | Church Life, Conflict Resolution, Cultural Engagement, Ethnic Reconciliation, Forgiveness, Practical Theology, Social Justice, The Vineyard Movement

As a Vineyard pastor in a Vineyard church who spends time with people who self-identify with the Vineyard movement, I often think on subjects through a “kingdom” lens. This is because our identity, both theologically and practically, are rooted in a...
A Few of My Thoughts on Ferguson:

A Few of My Thoughts on Ferguson:

by Geno Olison | Nov 26, 2014 | Conflict Resolution, Cultural Engagement, Ethics, Ethnic Reconciliation, Forgiveness, Leadership, Messy Church, Missional, Politics, Practical Theology, Social Media

I don’t usually say much (at least publicly/on social media) at the epicenter of these events, although there is usually plenty to say. I’ve had a half dozen or so serious conversations recently, mostly with a few of my white brothers, regarding the latest...

An Open Letter to the Dad doing Porn

by Think Theology | Nov 3, 2014 | Counseling, Family, Forgiveness, Parenting, Practical Theology, Sex

Dear Dad, I want to let you know first of all that I love you and forgive you for what this has done in my life. I also wanted to let you know exactly what your porn use has done to my life. You may think that this effects only you, or even your and mom’s...

William Seymour’s “love in the face of hate”

by Luke Geraty | Oct 8, 2014 | Church Life, Discipleship, Ethics, Ethnic Reconciliation, Forgiveness, Healing, Practical Theology

The Book of Hebrews provides what is arguably the best narrative theology of the “communion of saints” in chapter 11. Often referred to as the “chapter of faith,” the writer describes the faith of the Patriarchs and Prophets and a few others...
Boanerges Revisited

Boanerges Revisited

by Robby McAlpine | Jul 11, 2014 | Conflict Resolution, Discipleship, Forgiveness, Leadership, Practical Theology

King Solomon repeatedly observed throughout the book of Ecclesiastes that “there is nothing new under the sun”. This has certainly been true whenever I run across (or into) “trolls” in greater blogdom. Any other old-timers remember the firey...

Quotable Theology

For God, who is the highest righteousness, cannot love the unrighteousness that He sees in us all. All of us, therefore, have in ourselves something deserving of God’s hatred… But because the Lord wills not to lose what is His in us, out of His own kindness He still finds something to love.

— John Calvin
