A good list by Carmen C. Dicello.
    If Jesus were walking our streets [post]. . .

He would be more critical of those who are theologically on target than those who are not.
He would attend celebrations and drinking parties.
He would possibly provide the beer.
He would drink with the rest of us.
He would spent [...]

Christopher Morley said:
I went to the theatre
With the author of a successful play.
He insisted on explaining everything.
Told me what to watch,
The details of direction,
The errors of the property man,
The foibles of the star.
He anticipated all my surprises
And ruined the evening.
Never again!–And mark you,
The greatest Author of all
Made no such mistake.
So, maybe it is a good [...]

Psalm 13
How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and everyday have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?Look on me and answer, O Lord my God. Give light to [...]

Ok, so I just read a story in the Bible that I never knew was in there. It seems like it’s just tossed in at the end of Elisha’s ministry. I don’t know what this does to your “God box” but it shakes up my paradigm a little. So here is the short story from [...]

“God is in the slums, in the cardboard boxes where the poor play house. God is in the silence of a mother who has infected her child with a virus that will end both their lives. God is in the cries heard under the rubble of war. God is in the debris of wasted opportunity [...]

“If a man dies, will he live again?”
-Job 14:14a
That is really the question of Easter isn’t it. Anyone here personally know anyone who has come back to life after being dead?
In this modern age of science we have learned a lot about death.
In fact, science has identified many kinds of death that can affect [...]

You have probably heard it said that God is so holy that there can’t be any sin in his presence. And, therefore, we can’t be in God’s presence. Is this biblical? Yes, God is holy. Yes, God hates sin. But God is also merciful and loving. I’m not saying [...]

The emerging church conversation deals with the question of renewing the Church so that it lives out its mission in/as the Kingdom of God. The “how” is much harder than the “why” or “what”. Many have taken the idea of a new monasticism and formed communities of house churches.
As one who ministers in [...]

I have been interested of late in the emerging church. As one who grew up in the church I relate with many of those who are hungering for something deeper and wider. However, many are unaware of this movement or conversation that is happening on the fringes of the Church, in small house [...]

Ephesians 4:11 describes those who equip the church for their mission. They are: apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. Kairos has taken those terms and renamed them, breathing new life into them and making them more relevant for today.

Apostle = Dream Awakener
Prophet = Heart Revealer
Evangelist = Story Teller
Pastor = Soul Healer
Teacher = Light [...]
