Headship, Leadership & the Body (eBook)

Another Look at Consensus in the Church In certain movements within the Church, it is currently in vogue to criticize church leaders for usurping the Headship of Christ. I agree that, generally speaking, this is a valid criticism. But the more accurate statement would be that human beings, church leaders and people alike, are very … Read more

Revelation & Relationship (Article)

No Christian would deny that Christ is the Foundation of the Church. But what does that actually mean? How is the Foundation of Christ laid in the life of a disciple? What is different about a body of Christians who have been truly built upon the Foundation of Christ?  

Law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus, The (Article)

In this article, I attempt to briefly establish a Christ-centered New Covenant perspective of the Law of Christ. I believe a particular verse in one of Isaiah’s messianic prophecies is foundational to an understanding of the Law of Christ in the New Covenant context: “I give YOU as a covenant to the people, as a Light to … Read more

Church (Ekklesia) in the Wilderness (Article)

More and more of those who are searching for “the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:3) with regards to corporate fellowship are finding themselves in a wilderness (Acts 7:38).

(1 Corinthians 3:10-11)

Logos, Life, & Light,The (Article)

I have been surveying the New Testament scriptures for passages which communicate that God’s intention in the New Covenant is that “the Spirit gives life” in all of our life, rather than in sacralized (set-apart) special religious activities. New Covenant Worship in Spirit and Truth is concerned with the whole of life – not in … Read more

Christ Is All (Article)
