Dr. Mike Rozenblum Shares His Faith Journey of Physical and Spiritual Wellbeing

Dr. Mike Rozenblum was well established in New Mexico. The owner of several chiropractic clinics, he had a loving wife, healthy children and a dream home, but something was missing. That nagging sense that there had to be more sent Mike and his wife Karen Rozenblum on an adventure that ultimately resulted in them selling it all and moving their family across the country where they believe God was leading them. This journey shifted their focus from physical healing only, to presenting the kind of spiritual wellbeing that only God can provide.   Chasing the American dream Born in Venezuela, […]

Village Hymns Cohort Develops Worship Leaders

Village Hymns started about five years ago as worship leaders all over South Florida gathered together to write songs for the local church. In those gatherings, worship leaders from different churches began to form new friendships and bonded over sharing the common struggles of ministry. The realization that they weren’t alone in ministry gave them encouragement and worship leaders began to support each other in new ways. Cohorts and Leaders As Village Hymns moved forward as an organization, we began to see the need for serving these worship leaders in our community. Our heart was not just for new songs […]

Kindred Spirits Help Others

In 1 Corinthians 16 we learn the Apostle Paul saw a great door of opportunity for his upcoming work, but he also saw significant obstacles in the way. I want to tell you about two hard-working business students whose stories explain much about overcoming obstacles, taking advantage of opportunities and extending opportunity to others.  A pair of kindred spirits These two students never met, for they were generations apart, but I see them as kindred spirits. The first was Theodore R. “Ted” Johnson, who was born into a middle-class family in 1901. He worked his way through college and joined […]

Everyone Has a Worldview

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth” (GENESIS 1:1). Everyone has a worldview. We all view life through some type of lens. Certain predisposed persuasions or seemingly benign biases do, in fact, determine how each of us views our world. Presently, the Western world is engaged in a huge confrontation between competing worldviews. I spent my boyhood years in the 1950s, when the Judeo-Christian worldview was front and center in America. Our young men and women had just returned from the European Theatre or the South Pacific at the conclusion of World War II. They married their […]

Where Are You?

He was quite the fellow. Appointed as the first Chicago detective, founder of a famous national investigative agency, bodyguard to President Abraham Lincoln, undercover operative who infiltrated the Confederate Army, pivotal in the formation of the U.S. Secret Service, tracker of Jesse James and other train robbers and responsible for the establishment of a central criminal database system, Allan Pinkerton was quite the fellow. He wrote 15 detective books and novels, during which he popularized the word “lam”, a term used to describe fleeing fugitives who thus “were on the lam.” His detective agency became the “go to” place when […]

Reading The Word of Life

“I never read the New Testament before. I found it to be a very interesting book.” A few years back one of my students wrote these words at the bottom of his final exam in a course in New Testament. He had been raised in the church. Throughout his church services, Sunday school classes and youth group events, there was never a time when he was taught to read all of Scripture. Although well-educated, adept at the English language and a person of true faith, he never read the New Testament. I’m glad he found it to be a very […]

What You Celebrate Is What You Replicate

I’ve read books, blogs, articles, tweets and Facebook posts. I’ve kept up with the bestsellers book list, listened to dozens of hours of podcasts, visited countless churches and have been educated by Christian institutions. I’ve shared meals with fundamentalists, conservatives and liberals. For years I’ve listened to, gleaned from and observed evangelical Christians from various cultures, ethnicities and denominational backgrounds. What I’ve discovered is that they all have one thing in common: they are all, in some way, spiritually wounded by the church. Some have been spiritually abused, others profoundly disillusioned by church and cultural Christianity. They all love the Church yet are tired of existing in a world of exhaustion, pretending, […]

Shocking Mercy: The Gospel Is both Reasonable and Desirable

“Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect” (1 Peter 3:15).   We have been looking at how the life of Jesus Christ makes the Gospel both reasonable and desirable. We have seen how the Good News that Jesus declared and demonstrated speaks to both the head and the heart of the listener. We saw His Searching Mercy displayed in His encounter with the Samaritan woman in John 4 and His Scandalous Mercy bestowed on the unwanted, sinful woman […]

The I Witness

One of the games that I am usually drawn into is the game where there is a puzzle of some sort and your job is to find the hidden image or in some cases the hidden words. I always enjoy the challenge to try and see something that is normally hidden in plain sight. I guess I enjoy that about life too. Do I have an accurate assessment of myself? Do I read a situation correctly? Where am I being deceived? How can I see what God sees? Remember, one of my favorite sayings is, “patience is a weapon that […]
