I just read this today from John Armstrong:
Please do not tell me that most Christians in the United States understand the idea of the church existing for, and serving, the kingdom of God in mission. Most of us are so immersed in going to church, giving our money to support pastor(s) and missionaries, and investing in all the endless programs that make up church life on Sunday, that we never seriously consider for a moment what Adolph von Harnack said about the church in the first two centuries after the resurrection. The famous historian wrote, more than a hundred years ago, that there can be no serious doubt that the missional actions of ordinary Christian believers were what eventually turned the Roman Empire upside down.
For the rest of the article . . .

You should post more often, Miss Christiana. Especially now that you have a new job and we all want to hear about it…..

Hey there Christiana, my semi-inspiration from the blogging world. Isn’t it about time for your monthly update. (*wink*)
Its now a joking matter with my sweet new Wife, but one of the greatest excitements towards the end of our engagement was the realization that I could pod-cast Tenth sermons and going-ons. Good thing, because your site is becoming a bit more, shall we say it, sparse.
All in His love.
