GOOD NEWS WANTS TO KNOW – God Story

(Scroll down to comment with your God story.) God often reveals himself to us in ways we don’t expect. This month Good News Wants to Know…. What is a time when God touched your life in a personal way – big or small – that you would call a God Story? When a fire destroyed our church in North Lauderdale in Sept.1997, it was unexpected and life changing. As the associate pastor I didn’t not want to take over as lead pastor (a year and a half later) with any debt. God answered the prayer, one year later, just before I […]

Gene L. Green: The Body of Christ

“For just as the body is one and has many members, and all the members of the body, though many, are one body, so it is with Christ. For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body—Jews or Greeks, slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit” (1 Corinthians 12:12-14). What is the body of Christ? Paul’s teaching about the body of Christ would have been quite familiar to the first century believers in Corinth yet; at the same time it sounded strangely odd. We commonly think that Paul is talking about a mystical […]

Edwin Copeland: Collective Impact for the Gospel

Churches of our region face a complex problem: no single church, denomination, key leader or organization can change the spiritual climate of South Florida alone. The lostness of our region is too great, the brokenness is too complex and the pain too deep for even the largest, most resourced churches, networks or denominations to tackle. And, perhaps it was meant to be this way. We need one another. We were designed to link arms — to view each other as essential co-laborers rather than in competition with one another. However without a model and framework for impact, our collaborative efforts […]

Jessica Busboom: The Dream of God’s Heart

Did you know that God has a dream in His heart for you? He has desires and wants for your family, our city and our nation. This is a beautiful part of who God is. He is a God who thinks, loves, grieves, rejoices…and dreams. When I began to see this part of God’s nature, something changed in the way I saw and related to Him on the heart level. Seeing this part of Him stirred up a desire in me to know His heart and not just His works. A few months ago I asked God this question: “Father, […]

When The Test Comes, It’s To Sharpen Your Faith

“Keep the faith, trust God and he will let his presence be known” is all I was ever told. Who Am I? My name is Jeanna Huie, but you can call me 312. It is such an amazing honor to be in such a divine moment to share my story with some of the world’s greatest people such as yourself. I know that if we were to switch roles, you would have so much wisdom, strength and motivation to pour into me. I’m quite sure your road was built with road blocks, construction sites and dead ends. However, You have […]

Rob Hoskins: Leading Community With Friendly Competition

We love a little bit of friendly competition around the OneHope office, and occasionally during lunch we will break out the backgammon boards. Vice Presidents will go head to head, moving each piece hoping to be declared the victor. The leadership team may play against the youngest members of our staff. Novice players will learn from more experienced players and vice versa. The game is a perfect blend of skill and luck, so even a beginner can beat someone more experienced once in a while. Anyone who wants to play can join, and it always ends in good fun…but not […]

Stephan N. Tchividjian: Fancy Words

Two fancy words live together. These two fancy words are siblings. I can imagine that while living together, most of the time they complement each other, they laugh together, share responsibilities, support one another, counsel each other and simply hang out. However, once in a while they also argue. These two fancy words that live together as siblings are called orthodoxy and orthopraxy. I want to take a moment and describe these two siblings. Orthodoxy is a belief in a certain set of doctrines. Various religions and groups of people, for example, have their own set of orthodoxy, their beliefs. […]

Tommy Boland: The Gospel – Reasonable and Desirable

The best way for Christians to get an audience in our cultural moment is by communicating how the good news of the Gospel is not only reasonable, but absolutely desirable. We must share Christ through reason and romance as we engage both the head and the heart with the Truth and Beauty of Jesus. For the next few months, I will share some beautiful biblical stories of how Jesus engaged both the heads and the hearts of those He encountered. The Bible is God’s story about His mission of mercy; Jesus declared that His mission was “to seek and to […]
