]]> I’m preaching about household life this week – how the Bible’s rules for community (ethics) transformed an empire and  still transform us today.   I found a great little article by a guy named Michael  Kruse summarizing Roman Household life.  It’s good stuff to keep in mind when reading the Bible.  This article describes the kind of lifestyle that many of the early Christians would have known, and may offer some insight into why the Roman Empire began considering Christianity a huge threat.   Check it out here:  Article on the Roman Household

]]> Today (May 7, 2013), the Presbytery of St. Augustine appointed an Administrative Commission to work with Geneva Presbyterian Church.  I am guardedly hopeful that this group will be able to bring positive change to Geneva.  Geneva is a church with great potential for ministry and vitality.  God placed us in a growing, blossoming area filled with well educated professionals and young families.  In spite of our location, hard work, and sincere efforts, the church has struggled – often with itself.

So how is it that we now have an administrative commission working with us?  In short, we’ve struggled for years without being able to solve the problem.  The Presbytery of St. Augustine’s Committee on Ministry heard about it , learned more and decided to step in.

How do respond to this action by the Presbytery?  I hope all the members of Geneva will choose to work with them.   We will pray for the members of the Administrative Commission – that God will use them to promote peace, unity, and purity in our church.
