Recovering Prayer and Discernment in Our Agendas and Strategies

Posted on January 1, 2016 by
January 1, 2016

What is the role of prayer and spiritual discernment as we look to the future of our organizations? How does engagement with scripture inform not only our mission, but also our plans and strategies to achieve that mission?

Adventures of an Urban Church Planter: The Gospel in the Concrete Jungle

Posted on July 1, 2015 by
July 1, 2015

As I was teaching at a local college and seminary in New York, I felt an intense prophetic call to plant a church in the city that would reach urban professionals and university students who were far from God and cynical about Christianity and the church. 

The Missional Function of Architecture: New Considerations for a New Era

Posted on April 1, 2015 by
April 1, 2015

It was one of those moments that you look back on in life with great pride. Early morning rain had forced our Saturday family time indoors. As the hours ticked by, we had progressed through our usual downtime activities—dance party, horse rides, wrestling, craft time, and book reading. 

Discovering the Secret Stories of God:

Posted on July 1, 2014 by
July 1, 2014

The woman told me her story quietly as we huddled around the table in her cramped home in Serbia. She was younger than me, and yet her face bore the deeply worn evidence of hardship and struggle for survival. Like many other Romani people in Eastern Europe, she was impoverished and illiterate, and I found myself completely captured by her story. Married at 16, she had her first of seven children at 17. Both of the men who fathered her children were abusive alcoholics.

Learning Curve in Rwanda: A Long Journey of Transformation

Posted on April 1, 2014 by
April 1, 2014

Church was a form of religion, but life transformation wasn’t taking place on a consistent basis. We questioned the purpose of the church, our call, and if church planting and missions was really working.

Closing the Rift: Addressing Common Mission Misconceptions

Posted on January 1, 2014 by
January 1, 2014

I long for the Church to fully embrace its identity as the missional powerhouse God has formed it to be—that Christ-centered, transformational catalyst that even the gates of hell cannot stand against.

Biblical Storying with Post-Christian Generations

Posted on October 1, 2013 by

Some of the things I’ve learned on my 10 year journey.

Master-less Plans of Global Evangelism

Posted on July 1, 2013 by
July 1, 2013

How is it that when it comes to the development of mission strategy, missions has become essentially syncretized to a secular world? How had they come to make plans which did not actually require faith in order to be carried out?

Gospelizing the Social: Why Social Justice & Evangelism Work Together

Posted on April 1, 2013 by
April 1, 2013

While the Church’s historic engagement in justice issues is well documented, there is a sense in which a renewed commitment to the missiological integration of justice and evangelism is drastically needed to uncover a contextualizable way forward.

Opening Ourselves to New Movements, Voices, and Opportunities

Posted on January 1, 2013 by
January 1, 2013

How do I determine what God’s purpose is for my generation? What is my generation’s relationship to the work of Christ? The clues to answer these questions may be found by looking at a group that missed God’s purpose.
