Peyton Jones Interview

Peyton Jones

A couple weeks ago we and some of our Creo Collective friends sat down with missional practitioner and church planting ninja Peyton Jones. We absolutely love Peyton's commitment to be a loving, non-anxious presence in irreligious spaces and to disciple the thirsty in the way of Jesus. Here you'll find some great insights into intentional presence, missional leadership, discipling unbelievers and things to consider when starting something new.

Church Is Now In Session

Russ Johnson & Tony Sorci

In this podcast taken from our friends at LARK, Russ Johnson and Tony Sorci share their hearts about CHURCH and why they often find themselves pushing against the western normative approach and seeking, instead, to empower everyday people in everyday places. Those who are a part of Commonwealth will find some really good wisdom for the journey in this conversation, as well as encouragement from a couple of kindred spirits. The book they reference in the episode can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/b093b2l3sm?tag=&linkcode=osi&th=1&psc=1

Incarnation

Aaron Loy • John 2:1–10

If Jesus was nothing more than a great teacher, leader or prophet, then we should pack this all up and call it a day. However, if we was God, this changes everything.

Just As You Are

Brennan Manning

God loves you just as you are and not as you should be. This life-changing truth is the foundation for all mission. We must know it in our soul, remember it often and return to it continually.

Day By Day

Hugh Halter

If we are willing to be obedient to the call of Jesus on our lives to live sent, as He was sent, God will get to write the next chapter of our story, rather than us

Learning To Love

Aaron Loy • Acts 17

In Acts 17 we watch the love of God move Paul through three different spaces - from a space he was comfortable with, to a space he was familiar with, into a space he had never been before. This is what love sent and lived out looks like.

Romancing Your City

Michael Frost

Loving our neighborhood in the way of Jesus is less like a wedding day and more like a marriage. Rather than making grand commitments, we need to be committed to the ongoing process of loving, listening to, romancing and being shaped by our context, as much as we are wanting to shape it.
