Join us this Lent as we journey with Jesus together into the wild, and take a look at the remarkable scene in Luke 4:1-14 between Jesus and our adversary in the desert.
Jesus in the Wild is a perfect personal study and daily reader for individuals who want to gain a deeper sense of their vocation and calling in Christ, and for groups or congregations wanting a study on this well-known and moving passage.
Books and a church kit are available to order!
Every year we gather together to be restored, refreshed, and reignited by the Holy Spirit. We invite you and your family or team to join us!
A Discipleship Band is a group of 3 to 5 people who read together, pray together, and meet together to become the love of God for one another and the world.
A series of short talks on theological topics from a wide variety of Christian professors, pastors, speakers, and theologians.
In this short course we will sit with Jesus and listen to Him as he turns both prayer and fasting on their sides and brings quite surprising and distinctive teaching on the who, what, when, why, and where of it all.
J.D. Walt (and special guests) will guide us on this learning journey with his well loved “Wake-Up Call” approach.
The course will run on Mondays: March 6th, 13th, and 20th from 6:00-7:30 pm CT.
The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. And he who searches our hearts knows the
Though Christians often pray, they are rarely the bold prayers of intercession. Maxie Dunnam urges the church to reconsider.
The lingering threat of becoming nothing more than a dead sect is ever before us. We need a recovery of holiness of heart and life, the antidote of the relativism that is the operative dynamic of our culture.
Off and on now, for more than fifty years, Maxie Dunnam says a word to himself: Maxie, the secret is simply this, Christ in you, yes, Christ in you, bringing with him the hope of all the glorious things to come.”
Are we willing to go out into the city and compel the unlikely to come to the party? Maxie Dunnam asks this question of the church in today’s article.
Fear is running rampant these days. Maxie Dunnam has timely advice.
Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer
The intercessory life is a pattern for our interior growth in prayer that is abiding in Christ, and the outward expression of a missional Christ life in the world. It is a dynamic balance of paying attention to our personal spiritual maturity, and the call of Christ to minister as servants in the world.
If the unity of a “communion” is dependent upon order and covenant in relation to Scripture and doctrine, as the World Anglican Communion is insisting, how much more is the unity of The United Methodist Church, as one denomination?
Christ comes to free us; he comes to fit us for Kingdom living, and he comes to fill us, to fill us with his Holy Spirit. And that’s our need, friends, the power of the Holy Spirit.
I know that issues are more complex than these assertions, but I’m weary of excusing ourselves because the issue is so complex. Education is clearly a justice/mercy issue. That’s the reason why our church in Memphis has made a missional commitment to doing justice in relation to education.
