The Death of Death: A review of John Owen's perspective on the Atonement
Feb 11, 2024

John Owen came from Welsh descent, was educated at Queens College, and became a renowned Puritan theologian, Oxford professor, and passionate pastor who lived from 1616 to 1683. In 1647, he wrote the exhaustive treatise The Death of Death defending Limited or Definite Atonement against the Arminian view of Universal Atonement or Unlimited Atonement.

Fusion: Exploring Biblical Ecclesiology and How to Connect Guests (Part I)
Apr 6, 2023

I started reading Fusion to help think through the church’s responsibility toward guests and how to execute that responsibility faithfully. Like many of you, I have been to churches that greet newcomers obnoxiously, and then others where I have wondered if anyone even noticed I was present. Certainly, there is a biblically faithful practice somewhere between seeker-sensitive and religious exclusive that is rooted in orthodox ecclesiology. Unfortunately, this logic appears absent in Fusion.

Church Planting 301: Increasing Commitment
Nov 9, 2022

If you’ve been in church leadership before, you’ve probably experienced difficulty getting people to commit to the church. In today’s church culture, it’s tough getting most church members to show up on a regular basis—not to mention engaging at another time during the week. Tact on asking them to serve in a meaningful way that contributes toward the fulfillment of the mission? That’s an altogether ‘other’ level of exasperation.

Living Mission Focused
Oct 15, 2022

"What's your mission today?"

How would you respond if I asked you this one question?

Perhaps many of us would respond with something about our to-do list or required tasks for the day. Maybe the mission is something on our work schedule or one big thing on the agenda that if we could just get it done, the day will be labeled a success and we'll have accomplished our mission.

The Dwelling Place of God is with Man
Sep 18, 2022

"Don't miss the forest for the trees." I've heard this expression at various points and in different contexts when I get too bogged down by details. When it comes to reading the scriptures, it can be good to get lost in the trees, taking a deep dive into concepts and word studies for a more thorough understanding. Albeit important, we can sometimes become singularly focused that we miss out on the grandeur of the entire forest. When we step back to see the big picture, we unlock even greater heights of love and awe for our God and His amazing plan.
