Reclaim the Temple: Food is not just fuel for the body, it is a gift from GOD.

Reclaiming the Temple: Looking on to What’s Next

By Pam Fowler on 01/19/2012

Food is so much more than fuel. Food is connection. It is meant to connect us to the land from which it comes, to the people with whom we share it, the atmosphere in which it is shared, the memories it produces, and mostly with Him who blesses us with it all.

Reclaim the Temple: Does food have a proper place in our hearts or is it an idol?

Reclaiming the Temple: Ponderings

By Pam Fowler on 01/09/2012

So, I have many things floating around in my mind. Many things I need to sort through. Sweet food is my way to de-stress. So I wonder; is that wrong to use food in this way? I don’t think it is. I believe that God created food to be much more than fuel…

Reclaim the temple: you are GOD's temple

Reclaiming the Temple: Day Four

By Pam Fowler on 01/05/2012

Reclaiming the temple is really reclaiming my life; my thoughts, emotions and talents. This is where rededicating it all to the Lord comes in. He wants all of it. Not because He needs it or is some great fun stealer. I truly believe that He loves food too…

John Mark McMillan: Death In His Grave (video)

John Mark McMillan: Death In His Grave (video)

By Jason Fowler on 04/19/2011

Jesus is The Passover Lamb for all who would partake. As John Mark McMillan sings: “On Friday a thief, On Sunday a King, Laid down in grief, But awoke with keys, Of Hell on that day, The first born of the slain, The Man Jesus Christ, Laid death in his grave…

Jenny & Tyler: Faint Not (Video)

Jenny & Tyler: Faint Not (Video)

By Jason Fowler on 04/11/2011

Out of this struggle to continually choose sacrificial love we are reminded that it is not idealism or politically-inspired activism but humble submission to the Holy Spirit through whom we can say, like the ancient Hebrew psalmist-king David, “o my soul, faint not, no faint not | o my soul, keep up, up in love”…

For Church Leaders In Denial [video]

For Church Leaders In Denial [video]

By Jason Fowler on 07/19/2010

Sally Morgenthaler speaks candidly about the need for Church leaders to abandon the addictions of constructing self-absorbed communities of faith. Are we more devoted to maintaining our comfort levels and the stability of the Spirit-less status quo or are we willing to deconstruct our glorious religious machinery…

What (or who) are we worshipping this Christmas?

Reclaiming Christmas

By Bill Guerrant on 11/17/2009

Isn’t our culture’s commercialization of such a holy event every bit as profane as selling doves and changing money in the courtyards of the temple? I wonder what would happen if Jesus walked into an American mall…with songs proclaiming his birth being piped in to induce purchases.
