Listen to today’s news on politics and you will hear opinions from a lot of talking heads on the direction the country is headed and who is likely to win the election. One party wants an undefinable “Change” and the other party wants to restrain spreading and the growth of government.
Of late one of the campaigns has [...]
This video is funny and sad at the same time. It is funny because it highlights so many things that are true about today's megachurches, but it is also very sad, because it is an accurate reflection on just how far the church in America has fallen:
I am a team member for Presbyterian Bloggers. I made a post today that is something I stole from Lark. We preachers (me foremost among them) tend to use the pulpit (quite by accident of course) to show off how smart we think we are. You'll like this:SAN BERNARDINO — Pastor John Rainey's sermons have become virtually unintelligible as he constantly references Greek and Hebrew definitions, say
I really don't need John McCain or Sarah Palin, or any of their ilk to wrap their metaphysics around my Constitution. They may be fit lay preachers at Our Lady of the Asshats, but they aren't qualified for the offices they seek.
A police community support officer ordered two Christian preachers to stop handing out gospel leaflets in a predominantly Muslim area of Birmingham.The evangelists say they were threatened with arrest for committing a "hate crime" and were told they risked being beaten up if they returned. The incident will fuel fears that "no-go areas" for Christians are emerging in British towns and cities, as t
Ministers Arthur Cunningham and Joseph Abraham were handing out Gospel leaflets in a Muslim area in the city of Birmingham, UK, when they were stopped by a passing Community Police Officer. He allegedly became aggressive and told the preachers to stop talking to local youth. The two preachers were accused of trying to convert Muslims and, because they were Americans, the community police officer r
Gulf News - Prominent Saudi Islamic scholar and member of the Senior Scholars' Commission Shaikh Saleh Bin Fauzan Al Fauzan has warned Saudi youths against going to Iraq to fight in the war-torn country. "If they are obstinate and insist on going, then security officials should be given a tip-off about such people," he said. Shaikh Fauzan warned of an outfit called "Jamaat Tableegh" saying the Muslim Ummah was not in need of them. The scholar also called on the university professors to be vigilant and safeguard their students from deviant thoughts and extreme ideologies.
Thanks to Rev. Chuck Booker-Hirsch for an Op-Ed piece in an Ann Arbor, MI paper. This is a piece he wrote last August in response to a news story about a local clergyperson who came out. I found this because he posted it as a response to Bruce Reyes-Chow's question. You can find the article on Alan's blog. Here is a pic of Chuck on his congregation's website. Also thanks to Ray Bagnuolo of Palisades PC. Ray's latest blog post addresses the stalling tactic, "but it just isn't time yet...."
Can we please get some oversight here in America?

The Iraqi government has permitted Iraqi security forces to dispatch security agents to mosques to monitor the Friday sermons.
The government has also issued an order preventing preachers without proper training to deliver sermons, with the aim of preventing incitement and the fanning of tensions in sermons.

Preach it, Jeremiah!
“Senator Obama, if you give this church $22,500, you are endorsing what goes on there, and you want it to continue.”
-–Rush Limbaugh, March 14, 2008
The similarities between preachers extreme Jeremiah Wright and Fred Phelps is the subject of Red Planet Cartoons “Preach It, Jeremiah!“. The cartoon made its debut last month when [...]
Songs that describe a certain phase in a person’s life often comes precisely at the time it is most needed. I wasn’t very much of a songwriter back when these two songs were released. Now that I am, I can express myself better. But before that, I relied a lot on songs that were out [...]
When the sun shines
We’ll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be your friend
Took an oath
I'mma stick it out 'till the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we still have each other
You can stand under my Umbrella
You can stand under my Umbrella

‘The Book’ Loved of The LORD, There does not seem to be any Chronological Order to this ‘The Book’ so far. Writing as given Direction for now, then some order when it is put together to be published. We continue, this week, with our ‘Mission Adventure’ and one of our trips to a ‘Mental Hospital’! I have to tell you that when Pat told the Ministry Group he had made arrangements to visit the ‘Clients’ in the local asylum, it was hard to hold a straight face. At first it was ‘Mission Impossible’ to me. The young folks in our crew seem to be happy about the opportunity. The paid interpreter was always happy no matter where we went to minister. Keeping my mouth closed and again trusting God to receive The Glory was by this time a disciplined routine. At least
Dressed in glam clothing, wearing heavy eyeliner, and shouting political rhetoric, the Manic Street Preachers emerged from their hometown of Blackwood, Wales, in 1991 as self-styled "Generation Terrorists." Fashioning themselves after the Clash and the Sex Pistols, the Manics were on a mission, intending to restore revolution to rock & roll at a time when Britain was dominated by trancey...

Twenty years ago, amid an uproar over the sex-and-money scandal that brought down televangelist Jim Bakker, the country’s leading TV preachers were called before a powerful House panel to testify about their financial dealings.“People … need to know what their money is being used for — is it being used for the Lord’s work or is it being used to buy a million-dollar house?” asked then-Rep. Byron Dorgan, D-N.D.That furor quickly fizzled.Congress passed no new laws. The IRS, which oversees tax-exempt ministries, got no new powers, money or agents.Now, the same line of questioning looms for a new generation of televangelists.A congressional investigation into the finances of six media-oriented ministries, including the Fenton-based Joyce Meyer Ministries, comes as megachurches have flourished. Since the scandals in the 1980s, televangelists’ revenue and reach have grown exponentially.But even as media ministry has become a billion-dollar industry, it has continued to operate

SAO PAULO, Brazil -- As Brazil's most infamous evangelical couple waits in electronic ankle bracelets for a cash-smuggling trial in U.S. federal court, Brazilians are taking a closer look at the husband and wife team whose case has been compared to that of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker in America.
Their adoring followers refer to them as Apostle Estevam and the Bishop Sonia. But Brazilian

I found this day old article over at the UKs Observer site. I'm sure this comes as no surprise that a muslim preacher would be spreading hatred. I'm sure the article will piss you off as much as it did me. (I'm loading a gun as we speak). Anyway, I"ll post most of the article here and provide a link at the bottom after my comments.Muslim worshippers are being urged by radical clerics to ignore British law An undercover investigation has revealed disturbing evidence of Islamic extremism at a number of Britain's leading mosques and Muslim institutions, including an organisation praised by the Prime Minister.Secret video footage reveals Muslim preachers exhorting followers to prepare for jihad, to hit girls for not wearing the hijab, and to create a 'state within a state'. Many of the preachers are linked to the Wahhabi strain of Islam practised in Saudi Arabia, which funds a number of Britain's leading Islamic institutions.Revealed: preachers' messages of hate, Muslim worshippers
Got this great teaching from John Piper yesterday. My past history in churches has consisted of much prosperity teaching. Now, I do believe that God wants the best for his children, and that we should expect to be blessed financially if we are good workers and faithful givers. Where I differ from most prosperity preachers is that I believe strongly that I'm being blessed so I can be a blessing to those around me. Let me link to this article by John Piper, he explains many of my feelings in a much more eloquent manner.Prosperity Preaching: Deceitful and DeadlyThe great tragedy of prosperity-preaching is that a person does not have to be spiritually awakened in order to embrace it; one needs only to be greedy.
