[Founders Ministries Blog] Founders Ministries Blog: Missouri Baptists axe Acts 29: Perhaps the MBC Exec Board has good, theological reasons for rejecting the Acts 29 network of churches in toto. If so, then I wish they would show me, and not simply resort to the tired and hackneyed response of "trust us, we know what is best for you." Missouri Baptists should not let this decision go unexamined.
[Along the Shore] The Prosperity “Gospel?” « Along the Shore: I got an email from a missionary friend today in PNG who has been battling the inroads of cargo cult among the Siawi people in the Sepik Region. She and her partners have faithfully taught the Bible chronologically, laying out an understanding of who God is and of man’s condition before Him.
[The Forgotten Ways] cultural distance : The Forgotten Ways: Managers who are introduced to this theory reluctantly (if at all) embrace Situational Leadership for three reasons: (1) because it takes a tremendous amount of energy to clearly discern what readiness level is present in order to respond with the proper leadership style, (2) because they want to be able to use their most comfortable/dominant leadership style–regardless of the situation, and (3) it de-thrones them and removes their position-based power and makes them the servant to their employees needs.

And, Bentley Sadness ...: How the church responded (except for a small group labeled heretics - because they took Restoration for the fullness that is Christ seriously) did more damage in the lives of he and his family.

[I'm Speaking Truth...] The Pimp and His “Covering” « Im Speaking Truth”¦: I’ve admitted countless times on this blog how I’ve been personally disappointed to learn that the men I served and once held in high esteem were nothing more than wolves who intentionally deceive God’s people. I’ve also admitted that I blog from a personal perspective because I know firsthand how easy it is for one to fall into allegiance to a pimpistry when you neglect the Word of God and instead take the word of a pimp.
[Comments for Scobleizer -- Tech geek blogger] Scobleizer ” Tech geek blogger » Blog Archive I am not an American «: What about all the people who are unsubscribing cause they find your blogs on technology insightful but your political and economical rants tiring, are they not smart? As someone who deals in Finance for a living, it is stunning to see you criticize the knowledge of the common voter and then argue points so fundamentally flawed they make me wonder if you have ever taken a course in finance, economics or accounting in your life.
[AI Editorial Blog] AI Editorial Blog » Blog Archive » Darfur and African State-Building: The challenge in examining Sudans long-running civil war is to understand how, unlike other African civil wars, the conflict came to be “racialized” and not “ethnicized.” While popular representations of the Sudanese civil war as pitting the “Arab Muslim” north against “African Christian/animist” south may be simplistic, it is equally inaccurate to argue, as do many Arab apologists, that racial distinctions and prejudice were introduced by British colonialists. Historians have argued that by the sixteenth century, Muslims in the north were claiming Arab ancestry, and the labels one hears today””abd or slave for southerners and Fallata for those of Western African origin”derive from the late eighteenth century when the kingdoms of Funj and Fur were raiding the south for slaves and northern Sudanese Muslims “invent[ed] derogatory ethnic and racial categories to refer to non-Muslim groups in the South.” Centuries before the advent of the British, northern Muslims were claiming a superior Arab identity asserting descent from either the Prophet Muhammad or other distinguished Arabian ancestors, and viewed the peoples of southern Sudan, the Upper Blue Nile and the Nuba mountains as “enslaveable” non-Arabs.
[Anglican Mainstream] Anglican Mainstream » Blog Archive » Communing with Christ ...: In the Church of England, for instance, a priest can be brought up on charges to the bishop if he were to refuse Holy Communion to an openly gay parishioner. Coming from this permissive culture to Africa, I was rather shocked to find there the opposite tendency: large numbers of Ugandan Anglicans absenting themselves from the Eucharist because of irregular marriages which render them excommunicate.

[End Times Prophetic, Prophecy, Visions, Dreams, Revelation, Christian Blog] The Hebrew Roots Movement & Sacred Name Movement « End Times ...: I do not claim to know anybody’s ministry, even if it is disecting the Hebrew for a handful, but I also realize how many good meaning people get drawn down a path that Paul put’s “all things are lawful, but not all things are profitable.” I believe that if we could even fathom what the law of Grace through Jesus Christ really meant, much of this would never enter our minds and hearts.
