living missionally // or not

On Wednesday of last week I had the opportunity to sit in a room with about 20 very missionally minded people and have a conversation with Don Golden, co-author of Jesus Wants To Save Christians.

N.T Wright // a nice challenge to my beliefs

It’s been a little while since Kristen and I have been able to get away and just relax.

Romans 2

I guess Tuesday’s are going to be teaching/conversation starter days. For one, I don’t get to teach much and teaching is a passion I have. Secondly, I am participating in the Blogger Small Group over at vagabondrunn.wordpress.com, and we’re tackling the book of Romans. Intense to say the least. Maybe for you its not teaching [...]
