The Presbyterian next door, the Methodist a block down and the Lutheran 3 blocks down the street all are for gay marriage. The Lutheran has a gay minister. There is nowhere close to go. Guess I'll stay home.

Yes! This is a great post to read too. I found a typo that you might want to correct that. Spell check wouldn't catch that typo though. Look in the 4th paragraph : That Adam was with Even when she was tempted. Should that be Eve instead of Even? :)

Good question. I believe its just some of the ways he communicates things and an updated study body for individuals and groups. Other than that there's nothing different.

It is a great book to read. I still have the original in Hardback with the jacket, but I don't have the Revised Edition to that. I will be reading that again and looking forward to that. I got question: How much different between original and the revised edition?

Re: Five Favorite Christian Punching Bags

'Guerite ~ BoldLion — Mon, 23 Apr 2012 17:29:40 -0000

Now, I am catching up with my email with all the blog. This is a very interesting post to read. One of my punching bag is I just can't stand some of my charisma friends (Word of Faith or the overboard one) on the facebook loves to slander or Photoshop against Obama and others liberal party too.

I am a very conservative and Pro-Life in every way. I wouldn't vote for Obama as long as I lives unless the Lord changes his heart. As a believer for Christ, we shouldn't slander or Photoshop anyone and especially Obama or any government authority. We all should be praying for those in position even though we might not like them. But God put them there for His Glory. It just seems to be more common things among those who are charisma friends (Word of Faith or the overboard ones), and I kept seeing ugly remark on the facebook against Obama or Photoshop against Obama. Just a little bit from other religious background and some from Tea Party too. I am not seeing this in my church family or with my reformed friends. Funny thing is that both of my parent (deceased) were charisma but not of that overboard ones, they wouldn't dare do what others are doing. They would rebuke them.

I still want to rearrange and rebuke those who are being ugly on the facebook against Obama. The only way for me to rebuke them is to do in a godly Christ-like way without pointing to them. One of my friend that was a intern at Crisis Pregnancy Center who isn't conservative and is moderate but is pro-life doesn't like that Tea Party and how they make fun of Obama. She is for Obama and socialism. It is hard to talk to her about my godly view why we shouldn't be voting for Obama and other issues as well. She does think that conservative is meanest people without care from what I understand from her. Not all but the one that she encounter. I didn't have problem with her but being very nice and kind to her to point out the pro and con and the truth.

There are other punching bags too but don't know how to write that. I just can't put my finger in there and praying how to deal with it.

Thanks for the encouraging comment Faith Talk You may post a link on the Faith Talk website to my work here but not re-post it on your website.

Faith Talk — Fri, 23 Mar 2012 17:13:09 -0000

Wow! What a great exegesis on the work and person of the Holy Spirit according to the Gospel of John. I really enjoyed reading your work and it was very informative. It was like watching a movie about someone you know very intimately and yet feeling as though you were meeting them again for the first time. Great job my friend. Would love to re-post on Faith Talk website.

Re: Can We Build the Church By Being Against the Church?

Daniel Darling — Sat, 10 Mar 2012 18:58:10 -0000

Yes, this post was written out of something I saw in my own heart, a desire to set myself apart from all who aren't like me. And sometimes those motives are pure selfishness, pure desire to be seen as someone spiritual or great.

Re: Can We Build the Church By Being Against the Church?

Mark of Faith — Sat, 10 Mar 2012 15:59:09 -0000

I was trepidatious as I came to read this post, as I can often be critical of the Church and often, very regrettably, I have been hypocritical in my judgement.

Yet what you say is so vitally important - we must question our motives, and even as I type I am questioning why I am commenting and coming to the conclusion it is not all self-less.

I am glad that you made the important point that we do need to stand up against false doctrines, yet it is also good you say that we should be careful in doing so, and not seek to ruin another so as to build our own ministries up. We must be bound in love and unity and seek peace and reconciliation rather than a standpoint of "I'm right you're wrong", which can oftentimes only bring bitterness and division.

It IS a "dangerous" thing to hear and not follow. 2 Peter 2:21 Those are powerful words indeed, my friend. I pray God will strip me of everything that hinders, so that I may truly FOLLOW and LIVE, then one day {by HIS grace} I too may be counted as one of HIS good and faithful servants. Thank you, my Brother.

Great post Dave! Yes, we all do need rest. Also I have been working on Bible Study in the Gospel of Mark. Mark 6:31 "And he said to them, "Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while."

Loved this quote: " At the heart of the Reformed tradition is the conviction that its theology is calling people to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ in all of life."

Great review Dave.

Re: Ministry Burnout Part 1

David Norman — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 21:20:29 -0000

This is good stuff. I think my concern with most burnout avoidance writings is that they tend to only add to the burden by listing all of these other things we "should" be doing in order to avoid burnout. You're right. We need to realize that it's not a schedule issue. It's a heart issue.
