I worship my Lord; I love my wife and children; and I really enjoy teaching Bible to the best students in the world @IndWes

Jim Lo and I took a walk to talk about "Reading the Bible". Take 10 minutes to overhear what we discussed. https://t.co/4sZFg1pAJg

No state can be completely secular in the sense that those who exercise power have no beliefs about what is true and no commitments to what they believe to be right. It is the duty of the church to ask what those commitments are and to expose them to the light of the gospel.

How does a church begin to reach out to migrant communities when they don't speak the language or know the customs?

In our latest podcast episode we talk with Zach Szmara about Ministry to Immigrant Communities.

Character is what you do without having to think about it. It comes from who you are--your identity as a person--rather than from your decisions. Character is in your body ready to go without thinking.

The beginning of a story about Jimmy Dunn. May we all, who call the “Ivory Tower” our ministry focus, lean into these truths he declares and lived!

"They have very real fears I do not experience... life and death fears. Their lives matter. They should not fear being shot doing everyday activities or to be killed while in custody." - Wayne Schmidt, GS of @WesleyanChurch

NEVER too early indeed. Two of my favorite Wesleyan Thinkers when it comes to Wesley and Scripture; Joel Green and Joy Moore.

The calling of the individual is not simply for the acceptance of his own personal destiny; it is for the fulfilment of his role in God’s plan for the salvation of mankind.

In the commission of the Disciples (John 20); we are not to be seen as a sequel to the works of Jesus. No, we are a true extension of the very same “sending of the Father.” @SteveDeNeff @collegewes #EasterRevelation

Brilliant encouragement: families are not called to be perfect but to be present in these trying days ...thanks Pastor Matt! @collegewes

A baseball player who expects to excel in the game without adequate exercise of his body is no more ridiculous than the Christian who hopes to be able to act in the manner of Christ when put to the test without the appropriate exercise in godly living.

@JoAnneLyonGS The Lords favor puts you in wonderful places of spiritual influence.

This is a visible parable of the failure of pastors. We are better “doers” than “disciplers.” STOP IT.

When pastors decide to do the work for the church instead of equip the church for the work...

Authentic transformation is possible if we are willing to do one thing: to arrange our lives around the kind of practices and life Jesus led to be constantly receiving power and love from the Father. - Dallas Willard

@JoAnneLyonGS @JoAnneLyonGS ...sure do love pro-active Politicians. A rare breed but they reflect a global common good, not just us!

[David Smith @ProfDaveSmith]

@JoAnneLyonGS @HoughtonCollege So well deserved. Yet, keep in mind, you are far from done. Much of your race still stands ahead of you!
