Getting Out of the Maze by R. Scott Rodin

Find the Way Out Jesus proclaimed that He is ‘the way, the truth, and the life.” If that is right (and it is), why do we sometimes feel like we have lost our way? In our careers in leadership, we will find ourselves from time to time feeling like we are just muddling through rather…

Tired and Want to Quit? By Dan Busby

Ever get tired and want to quit? I certainly have. And, there are certain times in life when we should quit. When we discern what we are doing is not in accordance with God’s plan, we should quit. If we are headed in the wrong direction, we should quit traveling that way. When our “passion…

Top 10 List of New Testament Givers and their Gifts By Dr. Gary G. Hoag

The context for my post today is the Christmas season when our thoughts focus on gift giving. Rather than direct your attention to purchasing a home entertainment system, the latest name brand clothing or the newest toys for girls and boys, I want to shift our gaze from this century to real gifts and the givers who…

Internet Evangelism: The Case for Actually Getting Results By John Edmiston

One of the most frequent objections to Internet evangelism and information technology in missions is that numbers and results are seen as worldly and, therefore, as “unspiritual.” Jesus was transformational. Jesus changed the situation that He was in. The change was visible, measurable, and often astonishing. The changes Jesus wrought were so startling that they…

A New Battle for Hearts, Minds and Global Redemption By Gordon Marcy

With the Internet becoming increasingly important for nearly everybody, I’m amazed that many Christian leaders and ministries are still reluctant to develop full-time online outreach. The Internet is not a fad. Usage continues to soar, and there’s no sign of slowing down. In 2013, over 2.7 billion people were using the Internet, representing 39% of…

How The Internet is Changing Evangelism and Missions By John Edminston

There are currently 2.4 billion active Internet users, and another 3 billion are expected to be online within five years as cell phones increasingly become Internet-enabled smartphones and as cheap digital devices proliferate. The changes are not only quantitative; they are also qualitative. The essential dynamics of Christian ministry are being fundamentally altered. The heart…

3 Reasons to Embrace Technology By Kristen Pope

Humanitarian organizations use text messaging to collect donations after a disaster. Some ministries house all their assets online for advocates to download and share. Churches have given kiosks in the lobby to cater to the new generation of cash and checkless givers. Many ministries and nonprofits successfully embrace technology to market, fundraise, and minister, and…

Redefining Stewardship By Dr. John R. Frank

A blog is a type of conversation, is it not? So lets have a conversation about the definition of stewardship. I challenge blog aficionados to come to the blog and discuss a topic that most do not like to talk about. In fact, our seminaries do not teach it, our conferences try to offer examples…
