After serving congregations from different traditions, I have experienced much good and some not so good. I have been pastored churches that basing their theology more on traditional belief rather than what the Bible says. Other congregations are stuck to messages mainly tickle people's religious ears. Warnings and rebukes from the pulpit are no-nos. So much of today's preaching is grounded on pure humanism, where human philosophies has decided what is truth and what is not. All this while people, Christians as well as non Christians, sit in the pews, either not understanding what is being preached or not being challenged with the life changing message of Jesus Christ.

In my blogs writings I will share some of the blessings and frustration serving churches during a long time. The desire is to go deeper than just traditional beliefs and church work. There is much good church tradition around. But this pastor thinks it is time for religious institutions to re-examine preconceived ideas and where the consequences have taken them. It is not just a question about worship style or music style, but it has to do with what the Christian Church really believe and how the message is presented to those who are invited to to listen.

I invite you to follow my blogging.
