  1. Praying for the Acts of God to Continue in Our Time http://bit.ly/7xsw5S
  2. Further Ecumenical-Missional Insight from My Friend Dr. Joe Schafer http://bit.ly/4M70Ti
  3. @TribSeeker This is a truly wonderful article and filled with great ideas for pursuing honesty and unity.
  4. I met a living hero yesterday and will talk with him today: James Houston, who founded Regent College. He taught me evangelical mysticism.
  5. Vancouver is a very secular city. I am here to speak into the lives of leaders for missional-ecumenism. Pray for me me the next two days.
  6. Saw a Muslim baptized yesterday who came to faith by means of a dream and finally a crucifix in a German Catholic Church. Amazing grace!!!
  7. Heard one of the finest sermons I've heard in years by Darrell Johnson at FBC in Vancouver. I was moved to weep with joy seeing Jesus!
  8. I saw the Vancouver Canucks lose to the Blackhawks 1-0 last night with my friend who is owner of the team. What a fun evening up close.
  9. Dr. Joe Schaeffer: A Friend Who Seeks to Model the Ecumenical-Missional Vision http://bit.ly/6ppriq
  10. What's With the Mini-Dachshunds? http://bit.ly/5I90cX
  11. Driving on I-5 to Vancouver. Gorgeous!
  12. Jim Henderson: "Data follows decisions." This seems just, well, right! We scream no but facts support Jim in this observation.
  13. Wimber quoted: "Find out where God is working and go there."
  14. Rose Swetman: "We would rather grow a church big than grow a big church. Our building is used seven days a week and 12 + hours a day." Amen!
  15. Rose Swetman, pastor of a missional church in Seattle, asks, "If your church moved out of the neighborhood would it be missed?" Awesome Q.
  16. Mission should catalyze worship. Mission should be the function that informs everything else. This is what missional really means!
  17. What if we let mission organized when, where, how we worshipped? What if mission determined community? Worship organized around mission.
  18. We put community in the context of worship. We allow worship to determine community and thus bring unchurched to worship.
  19. Church does four things: worship, discipleship, community and mission. Reformers put worship at the center of shaping people.
  20. Michael Frost says mission is alerting people to the reign of God. We are called to create foretastes of the world to come.
