This poem was written by our friend Charlie. He has just completed the 2014 Cor Deo full-time program and was a real blessing! Let us know what you think. ——————————————————– I’ve spent too long having my steps directed By those keen to have God’s character dissected: As if ‘grace’ and ‘holiness’ are opposite poles, The Yin …
There’s a subtle and natural hiss in the conversation that surrounds the pursuit of holiness–that is, it becomes inevitably centered on the unholy-trinity of me, myself, and I. The traditional rendition of the “pursuit for holiness” warrants my personal effort to behave righteously; and sanctification, therefore, has as its central quality a personal introspection and …
My friend is an evangelist, a global Christian activist who offers the gospel whenever and wherever he finds opportunity. After any restaurant meal, for instance, he’ll fold the tip in a gospel tract. His voicemail message offers a gospel invitation to callers. His favorite strategy is to take non-Christian friends golfing in order to engage …
I think this might just be a blind spot in contemporary theology. We know that Satan hates God and marriage and evangelism and even church planting.

In Christianity at least three ways of determining righteousness have been promoted: …
A few weeks ago I had a very encouraging conversation with a thrilled believer. She had read a book about God’s grace and it was a delight to see her so stirred by what she saw there. She described how amazing it is that even though she was so guilty, the judge has paid the …
The last few days I’ve been reminded that death could happen for any one of us at any moment. Even a random, unthinkable event could take life in a blink of an eye. For those of us who live in the industrialized world, a near death experience or even a loss of a loved one …
This week’s entry was originally written by Ron on his blog: Spreading Goodness. It’s so good we wanted to share it! ——————————————————– The Council of Nicaea in 325 worked hard to summarize a sound understanding of the Triune God in the face of Arian error. They explained how Jesus, the Son, exists in eternal relationship with the Father. …
