Leading music in a corporate gathering can quickly become something that we “just do”. We can spend the majority of our time preparing for it; picking music, planning the structure and flow of the service, arranging the songs to fit our people and that specific service, practicing, rehearsing, setting up, media production, fixing the problems [...]

The Gospel-shaped Life
Posted in Theology, tagged Christianity, God, Joy, orthodoxy, orthopraxy on September 1, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I am convinced that the Christians most powerful witness to the reality of the resurrection is expressed in and through the dynamic experiencing and expressing of the Gospel-shaped life.
One of the greatest tragedies of historical theology i.e., the movement(s) of interpretive process and practice within God’s Word in Church history, is found in Christianity’s seemingly [...]
Making Sense of Suffering
Posted in Theology on August 27, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I am convinced that one of the greatest joys and inheritances of the Christian faith lies in making sense of suffering.
Existing as one of the most interconnected experiences known to humanity, it is in our shared familiarity to suffering that we are all joined to the adverse effects of human depravity and Adam’s sin. By [...]
Walk On
Posted in Theology on August 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Often times, I feel the “religious epidemic” of spiritual discontentment can be avoided when our expectations are grafted into the true heart of God. The Heavenly Father does not say “work harder, perform better, be spiritual enough”, but merely “walk”.
Walking is earthy and bland, not as flashy as a good hard run, or a exasperated [...]

At the Gospel Coalition this year John Piper and D.A. Carson gave partner talks on the pastor as scholar and the scholar as pastor. Afterwards they did a Q&A together.

They spend some time talking about their concerns for the Church in the upcoming years, and the one that has [...]

I think that there are times when it is hard to discern what God is trying to do in our lives… recently it seems like always. But there is comfort in the words of our Lord given to us in Scripture.
“Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. [...]

Abram to Abraham| prt. 2
Posted in Theology on March 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Picking up where we left off |
Terah, Abram’s father, has died in Haran and now Abram’s house (and Lot) can move on toward the land that God has called them to inhabit.
Along the way Abram screws up. To sum up his… uhm … less than bright moments. He deviates from his journey due to famine [...]
Abram to Abraham| prt. 1
Posted in Theology, tagged bible, Christianity, God, study on January 23, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Continuing to study worship throughout the bible we’ve come to Abram/Abraham. How do we study worship through looking at Abraham? Part of the answer is fairly straight forward, the Issac story, but we will be looking at the complexities that make Abraham a dynamic person and make his radical obedience all the more astounding.
