The Favor of Our Lord

The Rev. James Ellis, III (CBF)

Math and science have never been my best subjects, but Dr. Ben Carson, a world-renowned surgeon and devout Christian, reminded me recently in his speech at Howard University in Washington, DC that, having been created in the very image of God there is absolutely nothing that we can’t do if God calls us to it, and we dedicate ourselves diligently towards that end. We limit our local and global impact partly because we believe the adversary’s lies of inferiority. But, with God all things are possible (Matthew 19:26), and that is indeed good news!

Good Music, Where Art Thou?

The Rev. James Ellis, III (CBF)

Increasingly, I think, “good” music is hard to come by. That isn’t to say that everything produced in the days of musical yesteryear was golden, rather simply that the mass commercialization of genres like rap and even gospel have taken a dip in the quality department, one might concede at least somewhat. Music that inspires and that, of the Christian variety especially, is theologically responsible is like finding a needle in a haystack. But, as a lover of music I am committed to the journey, rummaging through the crates of supposed “secular” and “sacred” music alike.

Tracking Mud Into Holy Space

The Rev. Susan Sparks (ABCUSA)

In my childhood home on Lockhart Drive in Charlotte, N.C., there was a place considered holy space. You spoke of it in hushed terms. It was only used on the most special of occasions. It was -- the living room.
