Preguntarse si lo que estamos haciendo está funcionando no es algo fácil. Estamos muy conscientes del peligro que supone evaluar las cosas como lo hace el mundo -sobre mediciones y la viabilidad económica de los proyectos-. Nos regocijamos con razón al escuchar historias de ministerios realizados fielmente a pesar del escaso fruto porque entendemos que comunican algo significativo acerca de nuestro Dios y sus siervos verdaderos.

These studies are by pastors and scholars pondering...

Sometime ago, while going through a little blue shoebox, left by my Grandmother Molly N. (Morgan) Chaney, I found a tract from the 1950s. Having read the bulletin sometime in the distant past, at the time it did not seem to be as important to me. At the top of the pamphlet on the front was a handwritten note, which read: This was written by a friend of ours. A wonderful man. He died last summer. The handwritten note was either from my Great-Uncle...

Recent research has demonstrated a loss of verbalization, or grasp of the Christian language, in the emerging generations of Western Christianity. As contemporary culture rejects Christian identity more and more, subsequent generations are losing the ability to proclaim their faith well. This is particularly troubling for those on the theological campus seeking to train and disciple today's emerging adults as the next generation of ministers.

The decision for ministerial training institutions to become broader educational institutions that offer courses outside the traditional areas of theology is certainly not unique to a specific geographical context. While there are many examples of notable institutions making this transition in North America and Europe, very little reelection has been carried out in the global south.

It was a slow realization over many years that I had been living a divided life as a Christian teaching in the public school system. I had no problem teaching at a public school myself, but I simultaneously refused to send my children to the same school because I didn't want them exposed to what was taught there. The inconsistency was clear in the minds of others when they found out that I homeschooled my children, but it took years for it to become...
