VITAL SIGNS: Resistant or resilient: A critical distinction
Other Opinions
By Bill Wilson   
Wednesday, March 06, 2013
Two of the more important words for a congregation to ponder in the 21st century are resistant and resilient. Which of those two words better describe your congregation (and you) may well determine whether your congregation is viable in the next 10 to 20 years.
 
OPINION: An ode to the Ood
Other Opinions
By Alex Gallimore   
Monday, March 04, 2013

There is a parallel between current American culture and the plight of the Ood, a peaceful species in the science fiction series Doctor Who. We used to be a people with a brilliant streak for unity and collaboration. But our thoughts and faith have been replaced by ideas we were never intended to uphold.

Other Opinions
By John Chandler   
Monday, March 04, 2013
There is evidence that the North American evangelical conversation is centering on discipleship. While the 1980s focused on church growth, the 1990s on church health, and the 2000s on the church distributed, many believe we are well on the way to making discipleship the core conversation.

Other Opinions

Monday, March 04, 2013
If the words “faith” and “religion” are unclear, the words “science” and “evolution” are vastly more so. Attempting to speak of “science” as a monolithic institution is a foolhardy endeavor. That one word covers such a range of disciplines that greater clarity is essential to avoid saying something absurd.

LETTER: Yoga is incompatible with Christianity
Other Opinions
By Mark Davis   
Monday, March 04, 2013
I was saddened to read in the Jan. 28 edition of a Christian pastor practicing yoga. I am writing because many Christians do not understand that yoga involves more than just getting in to certain body positions and that it is not the health-boosting practice that it is purported to be.
 
OPINION: Shifted lives
Other Opinions
By Brandon Hudson   
Thursday, February 21, 2013
We are participating in and witnessing the evolution of media and content delivery. There are large numbers of people who are giving up traditional channels of entertainment in order to be entertained on their schedule and at their comfort and convenience. Churches, take note.
