Calling all ReKnew friends in D.C.!
A member of our board (Joel Pilger) is developing a video for ReKnew and he needs some volunteers this Saturday. Here’s what he had to say:
I’ll be shooting in DC this Saturday morning. I need a few ReKnew fans and/or supporters that would be willing to appear on camera holding up Manifesto statements.Who am I looking for specifically? CHARACTERS! Meaning, people that stand out visually / are not generic. For example, just imagine something like:
- An older black couple standing on the steps of the Capitol, holding up signs:
- “DON’T CONFUSE THE KINGDOM OF GOD”
- “WITH THE KINGDOM OF THE WORLD”
- Several skateboarders standing in front of a picket line of angry protesters, holding up signs:
- “GET YOUR LIFE FROM CHRIST”
- “NOT FROM THE RIGHTNESS OF YOUR BELIEFS”
These are just examples. I’m open to suggestions / alternatives / ideas.

Conflicting Pictures of God
In my ongoing reflections on the ReKnew Manifesto, I’ve spent the last two posts (here and here) arguing that nothing is more important in our life than our mental images of God. If so, then the all-important question is: what authority do we trust to tell us what God is like? To most evangelicals, the…
