Is this Real or Fake?
After seeing this picture, it made me think of how this world views Christianity and the Holy Word. Obviously you can’t judge a book by its cover, and also one can’t always tell what is considered right or wrong or what is real or fake. In a world with many delusions, we must put our faith in something that doesn’t throw smoke at us.
We must be a witness to the world in a non-delusional fashion, sticking out our neck so that we can be trusted. To many times ministry is done with smoke screens to hide or obscure the real truth, just to get another soul into membership. This is not ministry it’s consumerism.
Can you tell the difference. Is this Real or Fake?

Most Innovative Churches!
Do you want to know which churches are doing well and are growing. Outreach magazine has put together a project and looked at which churches are the most innovative when it comes to doing ministry. Make sure and download the PDF. At a later date I will post some of the innovations that these churches are excelling at. By the way, I highly recommend Outreach magazine for ministry inspiration.

I Believe?
"I believe with Dennis Wholey" has been presenting a series on religions in America on "PBS" This is something worth while to watch and learn from.
The War!
I really didn’t want to post anything about current politics and the war in Iraq, but with that said I ran across a great article that really levels the playing field. It’s hard for someone to keep silent on such matters, considering the religious implications. It’s a long article, but I highly recommend it. According to the author I have done my intellectual part in matters of government.
