St. Gallen Mafia, Exposing the secret reformist Group within the Church There is a somewhat obscure 8th century Irish Catholic Saint named Saint Gall who during the course of his life founded an Abby and Monastery in Switzerland, in a town now called St. Gallen which today is a Unesco World Heritage Site. It is said that near the end of his life, a bear became St. Gall's only friend. The bear, it is said, brought him wood for his fire.  To this day, the Abbey still stands in the town of St. Gallen Switzerland.The image of a bear is on its Coat of arms. St. Gallen Mafia, Exposing the secret reformist Group within the Church,  is the title of an intriguing, challenging and thought provoking book by Julia Meloni. She meticulously pieces together documented events and writings, surrounding power struggles within the Roman Catholic Church leading up too, and after the death of Saint Pope John Paul the second.  For a non Catholic it reads like a factual thriller and for the Catholic the book could feel more dire and be seen as the beginnings of the complete takedown of 2000 years of Catholic Tradition.

This season of the Cultivation Podcast is about how we can invest in and rejuvenate ourselves via self-care. So far, we've talked about our psychology, work, and emotions but we need to look at our whole being, not just one aspect.    This includes spirituality. Spirituality is a sense of perspective beyond our day to day life. It's about recognizing life isn't just about the day to day grind, there's another plane and realm. Personally, my spirituality is my faith that Jesus Christ is the son of God and he died to remove the barrier of sin from God.    Spirituality is a key component to who we are as a person — our purpose is to impact other people and we can't step into that purpose if we ignore the spiritual side of our being.   Below are action steps on building spiritual care in your life:    Reflect — In Western society's rat race, we need that silence and time to reflect. That means prayer, meditation, journaling, or enjoying nature. It works best when you do these regularly. Growth — Challenge yourself by reading/listening to scriptures daily to learn and studying sermons to get a different perspective. Getting the same views and lessons only stagnates growth. Go to Church — There is something powerful about being in a live experience. We're built for community and so is our spirit. Soaking up that energy and atmosphere is super important to feeding our spirit. Be in Nature — Look at the majesty of creation. Taking adventures like hikes and camping are fun, but doing something new creates an awakening. Being in nature can awaken your spiritual being. Honor Others Spirituality — Honoring the spiritual being of others can form a connection. Experience other people's creativity and spirit. Share the spirituality of another person.  Have Conversations — Schedule time to have conversations with others about spirituality. Recognize spirituality is who you are, so share that journey with a community. 

Today we begin a new series in Devotionables called "Songs of the Church." Pastor Gabriel talks to us about the hymn, "There is a Fountain Filled with Blood." This hymn, written by William Cowper, is based on Zechariah 13:1. We thank God for the fount of Jesus' blood which cleanses us from sin and all uncleanness. He is our only hope. We proclaim the hope we have in Christ, and we sing. Even in death, our hope remains only Jesus.

Part 8 of Connecting to Church There’s Only One Family of God

Part 2 of Connecting to Church There is Room for Everyone in God’s Family

What is Church? There’s a church in Hagerstown called Living Faith Ministries that existed for two years without a pastor.  How did that work?  What were the words of caution they heard from others? The panel: Troy Skinner.  Faith Debate host and Pastor of Living Faith Ministries in Hagerstown, Maryland. Jonathan Switzer.  Founder of Crossed Bridges in Frederick, Maryland. Roland & Dottie Stover and Michael & Kelli & Diane Lichtenburg.  Members/Leaders at Living Faith Ministries.

Outside the Church There is No Salvation In Matthew 12 we see two teachings juxtaposed: a story of an evil spirit that leaves a person, then returns to that person bringing other spirits; and a teaching that our true mothers and brothers are those that are part of the Family of God. There is a common theme between the two: something will inhabit your life, and something will be your God. Something will be your family, and the only way to be cleansed of evil and death is to enter into the Family of God.   #Hope #Liberty #God #Christ #Jesus #Holiness #Nazarene #ChurchoftheNazarene #Christian #Faith #Pastor #TalkShow #AdventureofHoliness

Tech News that Impacts the Church There are two headlines over at the Verge that I think show a shift in our culture. I think it’s one that churches should watch. The first headline has to do with the global reach of Overwatch League. The second has to do with Elizabeth Warren wants to hire… Read More The post Taking Church Tech to the Next Level appeared first on Bible-Tech.

Are you truly ALL IN with being the Church? There’s a difference between going to church and “being” the Church. In this single sermon, Pastor Frank Bennett shares thoughts from Acts chapter 4 about what it looks like to be ALL IN. Video: https://youtu.be/JoLhfQPQB0g

The church avoids it like it's on George Carlin's list of seven dirty words yet it's one of the most important truths necessary to understand God's love. Why do we avoid talking about discipline? Worse still, why do so many teach that the Lord doesn't discipline his Church? There's something precious we lose when we miss the essential truth of God's discipline. ©2018 Mike Kerby & Jesus' Outsider Ministries

No Men in the Church? There is a deeper reason for the aversion American men have to church, and until we discover this deeper reason and act on that discovery, we won’t solve the problem. And if we don’t solve the problem, the next extraordinary situation will be created not by our persecutors but by ourselves, by our own apathy and by our own stupidity. The post No Men in the Church? appeared first on Reconstructionist Radio Reformed Podcast Network.

What is the central thing for the Church? There are so many things that inevitably work to splinter the Church. However, if the Church intentionally roots itself in the central things such as the Gospel of Jesus, then not even divisive issues such as an election can divide the Church. Scot gives a vision for how to keep the central things central while adopting and adapting implications from the Gospel to the culture in which the Church exists.

Sunday Morning Stick Up What your Pastor doesn't want you to know about tithes A Must Read for anyone who pays 10% tithes or gives money to a Leader, Pastor, Charity, Non-Profit Organization or Church There is an undertow of frustration finely hidden beneath the delicate fabric of today's Christian experience. We call her Church, The Bride of Christ. Forlornly, she looks nothing like the church of yesterday. Conflicted in her existence and compromised in her expressions, she bears the name of the heavenly father, but oftentimes demonstrates the characteristics of His adversary. She hurts wounds and defrauds as many as who hope to receive healing and help from her hands. 2000 years ago, Jesus confronted her leaders and revealed two very significant observations as He stood in her courts armed with only a whip & passion. SUNDAY MORNING STICKUP, is that whip and passion of today. Worst of all, this stickup takes place like clockwork, primarily on Sunday mornings. Star struck, many have given in to larger than life personalities, and have cast aside the genuine leading of God's Spirit. She (the church) exhibits signs of swelling to the exorbitant totals of 10,000 to 30,000 plus members all gathered together in one place, but real growth escapes her. Her pews are filled with former members of other churches as opposed to newly converted sinners. Sunday Morning Stickup reveals that there are no scriptures that support Christians paying tithes. After embracing this scripturally guided tour through this important subject, you will realize, you do not have to feel guilty about not paying tithes. As modern ministry redefines herself throughout the world, focusing on souls has been replaced with a focus on $.O.U.L.$. ($atisfying Our Unrestrained Lust for $tuff).   Is it ok for the Pastor to live lavishly while his members struggle with the decisions of paying bills vs. buying food? Is church "Big Business"?
