Season 4, Episode 17This coming November, Ohioans are going to see a proposed amendment on their ballot. You can find a link to the text of that amendment in our shownotes. There's been a lot of emotion in Ohio right now about reproductive rights / abortion - and also a lot of confusion. This past summer, we held a special election here that was aimed at changing our Ohio Constitution to make it HARDER to pass ANY kind of constitutional amendment. That had a surprisingly large turnout, and failed... and while it didn't specifically engage the question of abortion access, it was certainly levied by political conservatives as a protection against what's coming on this coming November's ballot from progressive side of this conversation. The idea was to make it more difficult to pass any amendment to Ohio's constitution and since it didn't pass... the standard rules remain: to pass an amendment to Ohio's constitution, it takes a simple majority vote, or 51%. In other words, this coming vote needs over 50% to embed the measure into our constitution. What we want to do in today's special episode is to clearly explain what the proposed amendment says, means, and doesn't say. We want to also lay out what is real currently regarding Ohio law, abortion access, and the realities about care for women and children. We're doing this because we believe strongly in demonstrating a consistent ethic of life... which comes from our fundamental belief as Christians that all are made in the Image of God, and all life is to be treated with honor and dignity... especially the lives of those most vulnerable, as scripture says over and over again. Christians can and do disagree about policy... about what particular ways are the best ways to legislate in support of a consistent ethic of life. So we want to help equip you to prayerfully discern this policy issue at hand... and to consider wisely and Christianly how to engage in this ballot issue. You can find more about our consistent ethic of life through a link that's also in our show notes.Shownotes:AmendmentOther In-Between Conversations:S3E16: Human Dignity And Our Value Life EthicS2E18: Rebuilding A Culture That Values LifeTwitter: @stephkrider AND @RichNathanFacebook

Plunged immediately after their baptism into a fiery spiritual storm, Loren and Eve Montcrest face the vicious assaults of the Arcane Institute and their Harmony society as its leaders pull out all stops in the battle to win back or destroy their old disciples. At the same time, the couple must struggle with their sinful natures, their fallen world, and continual demonic deceptions and assaults.   This second novel in the Omega Point Series propels Loren and Eve through twisted intrigues and sinful entanglements toward the Heavenly promise.   God has placed them under the wise care of the head of the secret underground church, Alexander Renkin. Yet Alexander is in a precarious position himself as the nominal head of the local KINDness Church, an arm of Harmony. Alexander wonders how much will they be willing to sacrifice and to suffer for their new faith when the deeper trials come.   When a mighty move of the Holy Spirit disrupts their pagan household, Loren and the now-pregnant Eve must abandon everything and flee to a secret sanctuary—a sanctuary they quickly learn is not safe at all. Yet, in spite of everything, God's love and promises unfold.​ Join me as I chat with two of my favorite people in the world, Linda and Rich Nathan as we revisit the Omega Point series and it's accompanying study guide on Tuesday, July 18th at 7 pm Eastern time.

In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Jay talks with Rich Nathan about growing up in a completely secular environment, and how chasing his wife in college led him to an encounter with the Holy Spirit that radically changed the course of his life. They also talk through some practical advice for offering a salvation call during a church service, the benefits of making it a specific opportunity separate from the ministry call, and the danger of making assumptions about the spiritual status of people in your congregation.

On June 11th, I chatted with Linda and Rich Nathan about psychedelics entering Christian circles:   Psychedelics are growing in Christian circles. But are they giving believers a closer relationship with God, or tearing them further apart? Many Christians seek a deeper intimacy, but they want an experience, and not a relationship. Drugs such as marijuana, LSD, and other substances can alter the state of consciousness, giving one an experience. However, in the midst of that, we open the doorway to demonic influence. We had a lot of comments and questions to this show so I have invited Linda and Rich Nathan back to answer and respond to them. Listen in at 646-668-8485.

In this episode of We Are Vineyard, Jay and Julia Pickerill reminisce about their younger years together in youth and young adult ministry. They talk about the importance of embodied connection over simply teaching information and how Julia was changed by being exposed to a theology of the local church. Julia also passes on a crucial word about longevity in pastoring. In January of 2021, Julia Pickerill became one of the Senior Pastors of the Columbus Vineyard alongside her husband Eric, succeeding Rich Nathan, who founded the church in 1987. Julia and Eric have been a part of the Vineyard movement for twenty-five years, during which time they've held multiple roles in the Columbus Vineyard and served as church planters and Lead Pastors of Vineyard Amsterdam (Netherlands). They returned to the US in 2015 and transitioned into senior leadership of Vineyard Columbus in January 2021.

An atheist asked me once what would make me leave the Christian faith. The way that's worded indicates a set of values' suggesting Christianity is one of many sets of an adherence to a code of life. Religion is a man-made way of getting to God.  The whole of them rest on a set of values and rules. Many people have erred in making Christianity a set of do's and don'ts.  So, really, the question the atheist asked is what would make me abandon God? A believer's' faith rests on the person of the resurrected Christ. If Jesus did not rise from the dead, as the apostle Paul said, we would be the most miserable of people. For we would still be seperated from God, still bound by sin, still condenmed. If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead, if He were still in the tomb, then we have no hope or any chance of rescue.  Thanks be God that Christ is risen and lives forevermore. Through a living God, we are forgiven. We are encompassed by a love that will never grow dull. That will remain vibrant forever. It's the reason why the apostle Paul says in Romans 12:1 "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Notice the word 'living'. We don't have to die--Christ did already. Not only did He die for our sins but He rose again. Because He lives, we have power over a sinful nature. We can fight against an enemy who seeks to destroy us. But wait! There's more!

April 26, 2020Series: The Reason for our Hope1 Peter 2:4-10

Pastor Rich Nathan offers really wise advice on what we should set our hope on during the Coronavirus pandemic. Our hope is anchored in the past: Jesus rose! Our hope remains in the present: Jesus lives! Our hope is completed in the future: Jesus is coming!Christian hope is not falsely optimistic, but realistic. Most importantly, it results in God glorifying those who trust in Him!

Montgomery, Jr is the East Campus Pastor of the Vineyard Columbus. Prior to this position he served as Rich Nathan’s research assistant for 2 years.  Before that, he was licensed and ordained by the National Baptist Church, U.S.A. and has faithfully served on church staffs in California, Georgia, and Ohio.  He holds a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics from Morehouse College, a Master of Divinity from Emory University, and a Ph.D. from Union Institute and University, with an emphasis in Ethical and Creative Leadership.  He is an Affiliated Professor at Ohio Christian University and has been married to his lovely wife, Kimberly, since 2003.

Season 2 premiere. 32 years ago, Rich Nathan was a lawyer teaching business law to MBA students at Ohio State, while moonlighting as a teaching pastor at a small church in Columbus.

With all credit to an amazing pastor - Rich Nathan - we have been looking at things in our lives that are silent killers. Not obviously sins that we confess or feel bad about, but things that, if unchecked, can silently kill our souls and have detrimental relationships with those around us. This week Matt looked at Envy and we were challenged how even some of the simplest things can cause envy to thrive in our lives.
