Thursday, December 8th, 2005My friend Sonya embarked into the deep, deep blogosphere the week, and posted her “Traveling Light into the New Year” article here. “[Jesus] carries the weight of our weaknesses while teaching us His gentle ways and allowing us to help carry His burdens – not our Purposes but His burdens.” Welcome! posted by Jeremy Del [...]

Join the fun
Monday, December 5th, 2005Interesting comment thread started by Matt Kruse about the meaning of “church” in Matthew 16:13-19, and whether it extends to parachurch entities and individual callings. What do you think? posted by Jeremy Del Rio @ 12/05/2005 10:19:00 PMin and 18 gambling up oklahomastollen credit aapilotsroyale after casinogambling for canada agescores 700 creditbureaus credit addressesgames shorter [...]
Question of the week
Monday, December 5th, 2005The following op-ed ran in the December issue of Tri-State Voice in response to my November article, “I’m Going to See U2 (and other Reflections on Missional Living).” In response, my third question of the week: Is it possible that outreaching to unbelievers (in the way described in the U2 article) and serving as our [...]
Lou Engle to appear on Nightline tonight
Wednesday, November 30th, 2005I’m guessing Nightline’s interest has everything to do with the abortion-related Supreme Court cases this week and the pending nomination of pro-life Judge Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court. I met Lou in 2001 when The Call, a prayer movement he organized, wanted to come to New York, and I served as one of the [...]
Justice and Mercy, Not Fasting
Monday, November 21st, 2005“‘When I called, they did not listen; so when they called, I would not listen,’ says the LORD Almighty.” What did the people refuse to hear that so offended God that He would close his ears to their cries? “And the word of the LORD came again to Zechariah: “This is what the LORD Almighty [...]
Reflections from church today
Sunday, November 13th, 20051. Sixteen year old Anthony Liatsis led worship at New Hope’s third service, consistently the largest of the three, with 250-300 attending. Once a month for four or five months, the youth band has led worship at the second service, but this was the first time, to my knowledge, that Anthony led in the third [...]
The Meeting, Day 2
Saturday, November 12th, 2005Youth Explosion’s gazillion-voice choir rocked once again, especially a dance-infused rendition of “Holy.” The Man was even better the second time around! Live music — horns, percussion, tympani, acoustic, bass, and electric guitars, drums, middle eastern melodies, even classic hymns — takes hip hop to another dimension, and it’s amazing what three Alvin Ailey dancers [...]
Shine like stars
Friday, November 11th, 2005I referenced Philipians 2 as a parrallel to the innovaton case study in response to Ruben’s comments below. Here’s the passage: If you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any fellowship with the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being [...]
Kruse on incarnational living
Tuesday, November 8th, 2005After describing a college missions trip experience, Matt Kruse continues: “Jesus took a mission trip similar to mine. Only it wasn’t from a plush college campus to a poverty-stricken Mexican orphanage. It was from the right hand of God in the heavens to this poverty-stricken earth. And He didn’t walk in someone else’s shoes for [...]
