Using the Medium of Distraction as an Avenue for the Gospel
In our last couple of classes, we’ve spent some time discussing our generation (Generation Z). Since we are the oldest of this new generation, it can be difficult to understand what exactly makes us different. What are our likes and dislikes? Why don’t we feel the need to go to church? How can Christians best…
Read MoreCulture-Changing Church
In effort to continue the conversation developed in class this past Tuesday (2/18), I thought it would be interesting to analyze the way my church attempts to redeem culture. At home, I attend a Non-Denominational church called Northway Christian Community. This church started as a small group of people met in the pastor’s house in…
Read MoreYou are NOT enough.
Recently I stumbled upon a video that caught my attention. It was a short clip on Instagram from a podcast titled, “Myths Christian Women Believe.” The first sentence in the video was, “Myth number one is that ‘you are enough’. Um…no you’re not.” Yeah, you read that right. I was taken aback, and honestly felt…
Read MoreDigital Ministry | Who’s Doing It?
Hello hello! Happy Monday, y’all. Ok so after last week’s crash course in digital ministry and what it’s all about, today I’m going to talk about some people who are doing it super well. Always good to have people to look up to, right? Sarah Cunningham: I was very intrigued as I started to read…
Read MoreDigital Discipleship
With the rise of social media and the increasing problem of uncivilized public discourse surrounding the topic of religion, it can be difficult for Christians to find theological rich articles about the issues facing modern society. The Gospel Coalition is a digital platform for sound pastors and church leaders to share their opinions on topics…
Read MoreGenuineness is the Way to Reach the Next Generation
In class, we talked about how the media views modern Christians. We are seen as radical, hateful, irrelevant, anti-women, closed-minded, and hypocritical. That reputation is far from the standard that Jesus set for us, to be known by our love. This reputation has become a stumbling block in our mission to reach people when presenting…
Read MoreBalance of Work, Relationships, and Rest
In the opening chapter of Genesis, we are provided with a purpose of how to spend our time, and an example of how to balance our time. Genesis 1:26-28 states the purpose of the creation of man in the cultural mandate. The cultural mandate as stated in Genesis 1:28 (NIV) is for man (who is…
Read MoreThe King as an Innovator
God as an innovator. This is a sentence that I have not given much thought to until this class. I have always thought of God first as a Father, heart satisfier, lover, grace giver, wisdom originator, and overall Creator; which He is! However, never have I thought of Him as an innovator – but it’s…

Seeking meaningful and lasting personal fulfillment has become one of the most significantly influential problems of today. How does one achieve fulfillment? What does it even mean? These are questions that are being/have been asked and reflected upon for centuries. Some will say that there is joy to be found in worldly pursuits like having…
Read MoreRedemptive Entrepreneurship | Every Tongue, Tribe, and Nation
As I contemplated what the words Church and Entrepreneurship meant, and how they related to each other, I struggled to see any correlation between the two. It always seemed to be more of an idea rather than something that could plausibly take place. I mean, the Church being intertwined into the workplace, or it being…
