Jeremy and I have spoken before. Crosspoint, his church, has been doing a lot in the Alabama-Emerald Coast Conference of the GMC to multiply models of discipleship that are both vital and faithful. He has recently gotten to undergo a good deal of training at the general church level and can speak to how it is that GMC leadership currently understands these things to work.
His church is one of a few successful models of doing this. They are doing their part on the ground. I wanted to do what I could to circulate what he knows online. If you're interested in church planting and discipleship, you would do well to spend some time with us.
We are doing this live for two days in a row. Join us live to ask Jeremy questions. I'll do my best to field everything well.
Debra Baty is the head of Resources 4 Redemption, which is an effort aimed at spreading good information about sexual orientation and gender identity. She recently published an article about “sexual fluidity” and how it impacts our sanctification in Firebrand Magazine. It is a good piece, and Debra does worthy work. All believers in the West have to contend with the artificial ideas of the sexual revolution. There is nowhere we can go that these issues do not impact us. The only way out is through.
Debra has a personal story that is quite compelling. She is a trustworthy, thoughtful, and conscientious resource. All covenant Christian bodies need to know where they stand on these things, lest the evil one sow confusion. Now is the time to reflect upon these things. Days are coming when what we believe will be put to the test. If we have not prepared, then we cannot expect to prevail.

I didn't realize until I finished this morning's live stream that it got cut off pretty early in the stream. It should have made me suspicious when the viewer count stayed the same and I wasn't getting any more comments. Anyway, I recorded the whole thing and have reposted it here for you. I'll clip up the two main portions and post them on YouTube later today. Sorry for the snafu, y'all. There was a small power surge and something about that threw Rumble off. Tomorrow should be normal. God bless you all!
Hey friends, no live stream this week. My family is moving a lot of things around. I'll be back at it next week. God bless you!
No live stream this morning. I was up all night with my sick three-year-old and my brain is fried. Consider my conversation with Kenneth Collins published this morning:
Also, if you're free at 10:30 this morning, consider joining Jeremy Smith (GMC) and me as we talk about facilitating multiplication and discipleship in the local church. Live stream. Good stuff.
