Church Leaders Who Permit Carnality
Great message for church leaders who try to lure people through carnal means. I have always believe that the way you reach people for Christ is the way you keep them. If you use entertainment to win people you will have to keep entertaining people. But if you you the exposition of scripture in various groups then it is thorugh the scriptures that your ministry will be built. http://vimeo.com/26100841 Church Leaders Who Permit Carnality from NCFIC on Vimeo. see also www.disciplemaking.net
Gospel Centric Quote of the Day
Gospel Centric Quote of the Day: “ On what this generation is looking for that has been missing in church: Transcendence. My generation was raised on a religion of moral control. Do this. Don’t do that. And a lot of self-help religion. Feel better. Get out of debt. Six ways to overcome your fears. Seven ways not to lust. Ultimately that message didn’t work. It was empty. There was no transcendence. The omniscient, omnipresent, all-powerful God of the universe wasn’t the focus. I think that’s why we are seeing the resurgence of Reformed theology.- Matt Chandler What the church needs
Obama, Pentagon certify DADT repeal
Obama, Pentagon certify DADT repeal: “WASHINGTON (BP)–President Obama and Pentagon leaders announced Friday they have certified the United States military is prepared for open homosexuals to serve in the armed services. The certification by the president, plus new Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta and Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Michael Mullen, means only a 60-day waiting period remains before final repeal of a longstanding policy that bars open homosexuals from serving openly in the Armed Forces.” The most concerning thing to me is the freedom to preach the gospel and call people to repent from their sin including homosexuality.

Good Biblical dialogue
Many dialogues today are very immature from my perspective. I love it when believers can talk about Scripture and their beliefs in a winsome and humble way in an effort to learn from each other and not just talking past each other. I love it when other brothers and sisters in Christ can dialog in a agreeable way over their different perspectives in an effort to learn and grow to know Christ more fully. http://vimeo.com/24828722 Chandler, Horton, Keller on How to Disagree from The Gospel Coalition on Vimeo.The terms of theological have changed rapidly and dramatically with the spread of the internet.
Questions from a Ministry Student i received
The following Questions are from a interview I did with a student at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary. 1)What is the most important thing for a pastor to know? Genuinely Knowing Christ (not a false convert) and that God is the goal of the Gospel (not life enhancements). Thus pastor’s ministry must be based on expositional preaching of the Word and Gospel (Eph. 4:1-4. One could say the same thing by stating “please or love God first, not men” in all you do. (Hebrews 11:6, Revelation 2:4-6)). 2)What has kept you going when things are going hard in the ministry? Knowing that God has called me
