"Churches are not immune to cycles of trends. A growing trend is seen more apparent among American teens, as they continue to attend church, but hold to an “imposter faith.” But as successful ministries with committed members seem to find a home, some pastors are called away from complacency.

"What does your identity in faith do to you? Do you feel that you HAVE to act a certain way and make certain decisions according to that faith?

"The marks of a Christian are persecution and suffering. To become one is to expect such things to occur. Let’s face it; we live in a fallen world. But while some spread messages of hope to the hurting, others discourage to disassociate themselves with Christians, particularly in dangerous regions where Christ is not so readily accepted."

"Occurrences in one area can have national or even international impact. The devastation in Haiti, for example, affected more than just Haitians. It affected the entire world. Likewise, an influential individual’s personal decision could have ramifications in the community she is involved in, namely the Christian community. And lastly, the overturning of Prop 8 has legal and monumentally foundational implications for the entire nation."

"The top five news of the week is back after a short hiatus with news that seems like it may belong in a tabloid. But rest assured that there’s nothing comical about spreading the Gospel using modern means, nor is there anything not serious about sending out a message through a burning of another religion’s holy book. This week also focuses on Asian-Americans, particularly the first Asian-American (Christian, for that matter) to be draft-picked into the NBA for none other than a California team."

"It’s good to know the news, but it’s also good to know what is being said about the news. And while it is still important to formulate your own opinions through God-given discernment, it does not hurt to read what’s out there. So with that said, here is what evangelism can become or has become, and what sex was really meant to be for."

"There are a lot of politics in the news right now, so for the sanity of our news lovers, here is the “other side” of Christian news—from Gerard Butler to play a pastor in a movie, to sex, drugs, and violence in the Christian media, to stories of holding on despite hardships and having a mission beyond the obvious."

"The first decade of the 2000s will soon be coming to a close, and a lot has already happened for young adults living in this generation. But when asked to look 40 years into the future, some adults felt that it was a great possibility that Jesus will return. No one knows, so in the mean time, we must keep on pressing forward to the unreached people, even if it’s in the most difficult region—our family home."

"The word 'missions' usually carries along with it the typical visual and agenda items, like this week’s Uzbek Christians actions to save the persecuted ethnic minorities in Kyrgyzstan, or a Brazilian ministry’s attempt to evangelize to the North Koreans. But for one man, his mission, though carried out in what he believes to be God’s favor, is to kill Osama bin Laden. This man may seem insane, but as Christians, do we also find ourselves zealous for the wrong things too?"
