The apostle John, writing at the end of the first century AD, warned Christians of church leaders who were rejecting John’s authority and the traditional teachings of the apostles, and even expelling faithful brethren from their congregations. Jeff Patton looks into scripture and the history of the time to add important information about the major changes in doctrine and observance that took place in the gentile Christian church beginning at the time of John’s writings. This important information about church authority is for all Christians who are looking to understand and practice the “Christianity” of Christ and the apostles.
Is the Christianity of today the direct lineal descendant of the Jerusalem church that was founded on the law, the prophets, and the apostles? Or has there been a change? The brethren of the first century church, both Jew and Gentile, were warned of forces that were trying to subvert, twist, and distort the message of scripture.

In fact God dedicated a poetic book in the Bible to teach us about this kind of loving loyalty. Jeff Patton explores the Song of Songs, to make God’s thoughts on romantic love vibrant for us today.
How do we demonstrate our “philadelphia,” our love for our brethren? Jeff Patton provides insights from the lives of Jacob’s family to help us understand what God expects from his children in terms of our love for one another. Brotherly love, family affection, is that a priority in your life as a Christian?

Obama Inaugural 2013
Towards the end of President Barak Obama’s second inaugural address he argued:
“You and I, as citizens, have the obligation to shape the debates of our time – not only with the votes we cast, but with the voices we lift in defense of our most ancient values and enduring ideals.”
I wholly agree with this inspiring proposition by the President. Barak Obama is indeed one of the most accomplished speakers of our time. Yet, I discovered as perhaps you did also that not all of Obama’s inaugural speech was equally inspiring…
