Rick Warren, critics, and the hope of God’s Son
This week is the funeral for Rick Warren’s son Matthew. The 27-year-old Christian took his own life last week after a battle with depression that began when he was a young boy.
I first heard of this tragedy via text from friends such as Pastor Perry Noble. Upon receiving the news, I placed my hands on my head in shock and started weeping for my friend Pastor Rick, his family, and church...

Praying for Rick and Kay Warren and Family
Rick Warren sent the following email to the staff at Saddleback Church this morning:
To my dear staff,
Over the past 33 years we’ve been together through every kind of crisis. Kay and I’ve been privileged to hold your hands as you faced a crisis or loss, stand with you at gravesides, and prayed for you when ill. Today, we need your prayer for us.
No words can express the anguished grief we...

John Stott on Preparing a Sermon
Steps for Preparing a Sermon
1. Choose your text and meditate on it. - Read the text, re-read it, re-read it and read it again. - Probe it, chew on it, bore into it, soak in it. - You are not called to preach yourself or your ideas, but charged to “preach the word” (2 Tim. 4:1-2). Clarence Edward McCartney: “Put all the Bible you can into it.”
2. Ask questions of...

Confessions of a Woman Who Didn't Like Theology
A couple of years ago, we were sitting in our living room as I confessed to another young Reformed couple, “I don’t like theology.” We all observed a moment of embarrassed silence in honor of my ignorance.
I recently reflected on that moment as I sat in an enthusiastically Reformed conference. When I say “enthusiastically Reformed,” I mean the sort of zeal you find...

prayfordaisy:
At 2:40am this morning our sweet Daisy went to be with Jesus. She was sleeping and in no pain. Christ is with us as the God of all comfort. We are thankful.
Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies, and everyone who lives and believes…
Pray that the Holy Spirit comforts the family through mourning and...

5 Signs You Glorify Self
It is important to recognize the harvest of self-glory in you and in your ministry. May God use this list to give you diagnostic wisdom. May he use it to expose your heart and to redirect your ministry.
Self-glory will cause you to:
1. Parade in public what should be kept in private. The Pharisees live for us as a primary example. Because they saw their lives as glorious, they were quick to...

Relationshipwreck
1) He/She must want kids.
2) He/She must be a Christian.
3) He/She must want to work in full-time ministry.
4) He/She must love the movie, “The Notebook.”
5) He/She must love taking long walks on the beach.
Sound Familiar?
A list of “non-negotiables” is pretty common in the realm of Christianity. Are they wrong? No. But are they your answer to finding the one? Nope, not even close.

When the Wind is Against You
Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go ahead of Him to the other side… The boat was…battered by the waves, because the wind was against them. (Matthew 14:22, 24)
Following Jesus doesn’t mean the wind will always be at your back. On the contrary, the wind is often against you.
Put yourself in the scene. A miraculous multiplication of loaves and fish. Thousands of people...

What is your only comfort in life and in death?
That I am not my own, but belong– body and soul, in life and in death– to my faithful Savior Jesus Christ.
He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood, and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil. He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven: in fact, all things must work together for my...

How Does Jesus Come to Newtown?
We do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize … but one who in every respect has been tested as we are. (Hebrews 4:15)
Mass murder is why Jesus came into the world the way he did. What kind of Savior do we need when our hearts are shredded by brutal loss?
We need a suffering Savior. We need a Savior who has tasted the cup of horror we are being forced to drink.
And that is how...

WatchHope for the Hurting This Christmas (Video)
Dear Friends,
Have you ever wondered what became of the innkeeper in Bethlehem who let Mary and Joseph have their baby in his barn?
Did he have little children? When the soldiers came from Herod, did they hunt for the birth place of the dangerous baby and start the slaughter there? What did it cost the innkeeper to house the Messiah in his first...

Francis Chan: CHRISTMAS →
francisupdates:
Josh is a 20 year old guy that I serve with on Sunday afternoons. This past Sunday, he asked me to pray for an elderly, homeless woman he had befriended. She was attacked and beat up badly the night before. I saw a picture and couldn’t believe anyone would do that to a defenseless old lady! It’s disgusting! It is hard not to get angry when you see this kind of wickedness.
