  • Living By Faith
    By: DavidBSmith. | - What then are we to say was gained by Abraham, our ancestor according to the flesh? For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. For what does the scripture say? "Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness."

  • Getting To Know The Different Gospels Will Lead To Understanding
    By: Michael C. Miller | - Since the Christian theologian Origen (c.185-254 CE) first surmised the chronological order of the four Canonical Gospels, biblical commentators have noted that Mark, Matthew, and Luke are strikingly similar to each other and yet differ markedly from John. Around the 18th Century these first three-Mark, Matthew, and Luke-became known as the Synoptic Gospels because they "saw" as with (syn) one eye (ops); they are similar enough to be read "synoptically," or in parallel columns. The Gospel of Joh ...

  • What Does It Mean To Be Missional?
    By: Jane.Stafford | - There is a lot of talk in the Christian community about engaging with those who are outside of the walls of the church by being missional. Yet when the word missional comes up, it seems like everyone has their own definition. Missions have long been an emphasis of the church, yet a missional church takes a look at what it means to be a missionary in ones own culture.

    When an average church member thinks about mission work, they see visions of far away lands, foreign languages, p ...

  • Two Real Conversion Stories
    By: sanjay | - Spiritual changeover or conversion comprises the acceptance of new religions that differ from the convert's former beliefs.

  • Book Review: Anne Rice: Christ The Lord Out Of Egypt
    By: Kathy Steinemann | - This review is based on the paperback edition of Anne Rice's novel, 'Christ the Lord Out of Egypt'.

    By: Jerry Richard Boone | - The story of Jesus' resurrection is a compelling one, but is it true? How can we in the twenty-first century account for this Gospel story?

    Possible Explanations:

    Mass Hallucinations

    By: eileen fleming | - On the November 26, 2006 WAWA Blog, this reporter raised the question if Mordechai Vanunu's Christian conversion could be the reason the Israeli government continues to hold him captive in Jerusalem, 2 1/2 years after he was released from 18 years in jail for telling the world the truth, that Israel had gone nuclear.
