Lessons Learned From the Discipleship Course
We recently concluded a 14-week discipleship course, here at Disruptive Reality. As I usually do at the conclusion of a study, I sat and reflected on how the teachings went and what I personally learned from them. Yes, I still learn even after more than 30 years of teaching the…

We Are Fighting the Wrong Battle – A Star Wars Message

Oh, to be a pastor. It is an honorable calling that carries a tremendous burden of responsibility with it. These days, we seem to interact with our pastors in one of two ways. We either treat them like yesterday's trash or we put them on pedestals so high they need…
Jesus’ Virgin Birth: More than Just a Miracle
Jesus' virgin birth was certainly a divine miracle. Like all of God's miracles, He pulled this one of with great power and glory. But did you know that Jesus being born of a virgin also had a purpose above and beyond glorifying God? Oh yes, it did. And that reason…
DR’s Take on the ‘Reason for the Season’
As much as I don't relish weighing in on the 'reason for the season' debate, my conscience compels me to do so. A certain number of Christians have long held that we should not celebrate Christmas because of its pagan origins. I get that, even though I don't agree with…
