ReKnew Retreat
The ReKnew team met this weekend for a retreat. We dreamed some dreams and set some new things in motion. You’ll be hearing more about that in the coming days and weeks, but for now, would you keep this ministry in your prayers if you care about the work we’re doing? We’re all feeling the weight of the need for this message of the beautiful God juxtaposed against the meagerness of our resources. Be blessed.

Benefit of the Doubt: Sneak Peek
We’ll be leaking little tidbits from Greg’s soon-to-be-released book Benefit of the Doubt from today until the book release.

The One True Source
In the weeks to come, I’d like to share some thoughts on each of the nine convictions (expressed in A ReKnew Manifesto) that ReKnew seeks to promote.

In essence, this is how Calvinism views God’s role in any instance of radical evil (quoted from the Desiring God article): But, of course, the Bible says more than…
Manifesto Poster
If you’re a fan of ReKnew, I hope you’ve had the chance to take a look at the ReKnew Manifesto. It’s a 9-point treatise summing up all the big, radical ideas that Greg has been advocating for years, and for which we fellow Jesus-followers stand. Today we are thrilled to announce a fresh, inspiring rendition that we…
The Benefit of the Doubt
In my last two posts (here and here) I’ve given five arguments against the common way Evangelical Christians tend to think about faith. More specifically, I’m calling into question the assumption that a person’s faith is as strong as they are free of doubt. I’ll conclude this line of questioning today by offering four other…
