OPINION: Burt’s Bees and thinking outside the hive
Other Opinions
By Alex Gallimore   
Thursday, February 21, 2013
For far too long churches have attempted to dispense their most precious product while parked along the side of the road, hoping someone will drive by and want to pick up a jar or two. We have the greatest of products, but the roadside-stand model only takes us so far.
 
TRENDING: Past the in-fighting?
Other Opinions
By John Chandler   
Thursday, February 21, 2013
Is it possible that the vast polarization and contentious rhetoric among evangelicals have left all but the zealots asking whether we have been completely co-opted by our polarized culture? Is it possible for evangelicals to live as a peaceable contrast society?

Finding ourselves in the season of Lent forces question of how our practices, our bodily, lived experiences, encourage or distract our spirituality. Two titles -- The Life of the Body, by Valerie Hess and Lane M. Arnold, and The Rest of Life, by Ben Witherington III, explore these questions.
 
VITAL SIGNS: The surrender principle
Other Opinions
By Bill Wilson   
Thursday, February 21, 2013
I’ve always been struck by the phrase from Luke 9: 51, 53 which describes Jesus as “turning his face toward Jerusalem.” It implies a resoluteness of intent and a high degree of commitment to a divine agenda. Is that characteristic of today’s Christians?

Quotes from the global media
 
OPINION: Ash Wednesday and re-membering
Other Opinions
By Brandon Hudson   
Tuesday, February 12, 2013
Ash Wednesday reminds us that Jesus redefines family radically as those who seek God’s kingdom and do God’s will. That means that all of us in church are family for each other. We are called to look at one another and whisper words of belonging and being, not only on Ash Wednesday, but every day.
 
OPINION: For the walking dead
Other Opinions
By Lisa Cole Smith   
Friday, February 08, 2013
Zombies are classic fixtures in horror movies. The idea of people being alive and yet dead, walking around in our midst with no way to relate or reach out or communicate, no way for us to reach them, is really disturbing. I see too many people living that kind of half-life and it is heart breaking.

Even though Jesus said, "But of the day and hour knoweth no man," what makes us continue to obsess about the end?

• Despite biblical injunctions to the contrary, Christians remain obsessed with end times
