The message that still must be heard

Posted on October 22, 2020 by Mel Wild

It’s seems we’re living in a time when we’ve lost the plot about what’s most important. With cancel culture and so much anger, fear, and division, we’ve lost what makes us feel most alive, most human. We’ve forgotten our source … Continue reading →

The Gospel: God, love, fellowship, and joy!

Posted on October 1, 2020 by Mel Wild

Everything you need to know in ten minutes

Posted on February 24, 2017 by Mel Wild

What if you only had ten minutes to show a group of people on a remote island everything they needed to know in order to grow into a vibrant Christian community, and you could only give them four Bible verses (they have no Bibles)? What would … Continue reading →

What IS so funny ’bout peace, love, and understanding?

Posted on February 9, 2017 by Mel Wild

We’re most certainly living in troubled times…with terrorist threats, violent civil unrest, and deeply divided polarization on issues. But this is exactly when Jesus’s Church should shine the brightest, rather than being part of the problem. But the only way we’re going to … Continue reading →

The Jesus Hermeneutic – Part Two

Posted on June 30, 2016 by Mel Wild
