Why church planters need theology
If you know me, you’re probably surprised by this title. I’m not generally a big proponent of systematic theology or theological hairsplitting. My eschatology can be summed up with “Jesus is coming back,” because that’s about all I know for sure. However, I do believe...
Congregational worship gathering
This entry concludes a week-long series from guest blogger Doug Lee on whole life worship. This last of the four forms of worship that we’ve looked at this week is often the hardest for missional churches. In many missional churches and house churches, the extent of...
Whole life community
This entry continues a week-long series from guest blogger Doug Lee on whole life worship. A unique kind of worship can take place in small communities. We can come together and share with each other our experiences of God throughout the week. These can be experiences...
Worship in the everyday ordinary
This entry continues a week-long series from guest blogger Doug Lee on whole life worship. Worship in the everyday ordinary is just that: being able to worship God with our daily lives, in our work, our school, our driving, in the marketplace. Worship of God can be a...

Bob on YouTube!
A student taking a film class interviewed me on coaching for 45 minutes, then boiled it down to a 5-minute segment with some really great visual footage as well. In the segment, I introduce some basic concepts of coaching and thought you might be interested in seeing...
Brokenness in the 2/3 world church
This blog entry, by guest blogger Jean-Luc Krieg, continues from yesterday’s entry. While we will discover much sacrificial faith, vibrant dedication to the cause, and sincere dependence on God’s powerful intervention in the 2/3 world, and while we are seeing an...
Challenges for the American Church
This blog entry, by guest blogger Jean-Luc Krieg, continues from yesterday’s entry. In a generalized way, it seems to me that much of Christianity in America has been domesticated and church has become a fine-tuned machine with well-polished religious products...
Learning from the 2/3 world church
In response to a previous blog entry by Jean-Luc Krieg, a question was posted: “What are your impressions regarding the state of the church in the U.S.? What more can we learn from the 2/3 world experiences, strengths and weaknesses, threats?” Jean-Luc’s response...
The next five years
At our last ViaCordis campfire gathering, we gathered leaders of the churches who are in the ViaCordis network. We had a time of prayer and listening to the Lord and see what the Spirit might be prompting people to share. My friend and associate Doug Lee shared that...
