This Sunday at Desert Springs Bible Church, my friend Terry Wildman will preach on the Lord's Prayer.

Terry is the editor of the First Nations Version of the New Testament.

He has been a blessing to me, & I have greatly enjoyed reading the FVN over the last few years.

"And if I were a painter, I do not know which I'd paint,
The calling of the ancient stars or assembling of the saints,
And there's so much beauty around us for just two eyes to see,
But everywhere I go, I'm looking."
- Rich Mullins

And when one knows [as the cross demonstrates] that God’s love is greater than all sin, one is free to see oneself in the light of God’s justice and so rediscover one’s own sinfulness.”
-Miroslav Volf

When one knows [as the cross demonstrates] that the torturer will not eternally triumph over the victim, one is free to rediscover that person’s humanity and imitate God’s love for him.

without transposing the enemy from the sphere of the monstrous… into the sphere of shared humanity and herself from the sphere of proud innocence into the sphere of common sinfulness.

"Forgiveness flounders because I exclude the enemy from the community of humans even as I exclude myself from the community of sinners.
But no one can be in the presence of the God of the crucified Messiah for long without overcoming this double exclusion...

Thanks to the fantastic crew at Roosevelt Community Church for your hospitality and kindness.

Maria is one of my heroes.

She has ministered in the church I serve, advocated for more just legislation in our state, and is currently training to be a nurse so she can better serve our community.

Please listen to her story.

The pastor from Idaho, who made waves on CNN this week, is writing/filming a series of critiques about Disarming Leviathan. Today I am working on what will hopefully be a thoughtful response.

If you think of it, pray for me... and him.

One of the amazing folks at @desertspringsbiblechurch gifted this to me after our Summer of the Bible series.

The World's Smallest Bible (at least in 1933).

There is definitely a sermon illustration here somewhere ;-)

Who would you recommend to coach pastors in the use of Tech in the local church (e.g., AI, Social Media, Screens, etc)?
