We are no longer able to maintain our blog at the site where it has been generously hosted for us the past 20 months or so. We need to convert it and bring it onto the Lifestream site, which may take a bit of work over the next few days. If the site is not [...]
I can’t believe I didn’t get a new blog entry up here between the last podcast and this one. But it’s been a bit nuts around here, especially with the holiday week and some family events that coincided with all that. But I thought you’d want to know that our latest edition of The God [...]
Our latest edition of The God Journey entitled The Freedom Not To Have It All Figured Out has just been posted on our sister website thegodjourney.com. As Wayne and Brad respond to a recent flood of reader comments and letters, they wander into a discussion about the challenge of living in Jesus without having all [...]
Joshua from Virginia wrote in response to my recent Breaking Free blog, show how that process has not been easy for him. I love the issue he raised and how he responded to what I wrote. Grace is not something we get for a day or two, it’s something we need for life. We will [...]
This was posted on the Lifestream List the other day and I thought it was a fabulous reminder about what fellowship is really all about and I also think it is the best way to spill into relationships with others. The author is Lynette from New Zealand. Sara and I spent some time last summer [...]
Opening my email every day is an adventure. I’m want to share with you two of them I received yesterday from brothers in Africa because they give us an incredible perspective of what God is doing elsewhere in the world. The first is from South Africa and some people I stayed with one weekend in [...]
Our latest edition of The God Journey entitled Barna’s Revolution has just been posted on our sister website thegodjourney.com. Is there a revolution afoot in the body of Christ. George Barna seems to think so and in his latest book, Revolution, he describes a large and growing group of committed Christians who have given up [...]
Perspective Those of us who live in the developed west have such a skewed view of the world and its reality. I find lists like this to be extremely helpful in seeing things more the way God does, than our own national interests ever let us do. If you could shrink the earth’s population to [...]
One of the lists I subscribe to on the Internet is the Daily Dig, from the Bruderhof communities. It offers a thought-provoking quote every day and most of them are incredible. I got this one today. Can you imagine Plato sharing something so brilliant? Afraid of the Light? Plato One can easily understand a child [...]
Our latest edition of The God Journey entitled Children Unplugged—The Squel has just been posted on our sister website thegodjourney.com. They couldn’t resist! Brad and Wayne had so much feedback from their previous podcast on being involved with children outside the box, that they wanted to share some of it with you and continue the [...]
In response to a recent blog entry, I got a comment from Chris. He asked, Wayne, I was reading the “sorry” post on your blog the other day and I was just curious what you do to “keep up with your life in Him”? I thought that was a great question, so I took a [...]
The November 2005 issue of BodyLife is now avaialable at the Lifestream website. The lead article is called “Tree Town” and is a bit of a different article than we normally do in this publication, but I think it makes some essential points for people who want to live deeply in the life of Christ. [...]
I just finished reading George Barna’s lastest book, Revolution, which is sure to cause a stir in Chistendom. Barna, head of a polling firm on Christian issues, identifies a growing segment of the Christian population who are deeply committed to Christ but live that faith outside of the traditional congregation. He says 30% of committed [...]
