And now, back to our regularly scheduled programming

pathfinderWhile I haven’t been blogging here much lately, I have been blogging. Readers probably noted that the majority of my posts over the last seven months have sent readers over to the Oakdale Wesleyan Church website. At that site, I had been posting the mission report from last Fall’s trip to Uganda. Seven months, sixteen posts, and many pictures and videos later, The Pathfinder Report is completed. Please head over and check it all out. Since that work is done (the writing, not the work in Uganda), I will now return to regular posting on spiritual formation on this site . . . sort of.

Readers have probably also noticed that the blog name has changed from In God’s Way to Imitatio Dei (Imitation of God), which I believe reflects more the intent of this blog, and would have been the name I first chose, had I thought of it. I have the goal of migrating all content over to imitatiodei.org (which already mirrors the blog home page) by the end of the year, and I am open to ideas about how best to use imitatiodei.org, which I have purchased as well.

I’m looking forward to continuing to grow with you all, individually and corporately, into a true reflection of God’s image.

Dear friend, do not imitate what is evil but what is good. Anyone who does what is good is from God. Anyone who does what is evil has not seen God. (3 John 1:11 NIV)

Ministry News: New Pastoral Calling

leafMy busy schedule has not allowed me to keep up with regular blog and Twitter posting over the past three weeks. However, after many years of work and prayer, that intensified over the past three weeks, on Nov. 18, 2012, I was offered and accepted the call as lead pastor at Oakdale Wesleyan Church in Oakdale, MN.

I ask that you forgive the lack of attention the blog may receive as we transition over the next few months, and travel down the road of greater opportunity to impact individuals, our culture, and the world, with the hope and love found in Jesus.

What’s in a Name? Blogging in 2012

My blog has been going for a couple of years now, and I have a few readers. I have been waiting for someone to point out that the URL for this blog references Acts 2:17, but the title references 1 Corinthians 14:19. Did anyone catch this? Did anyone care? Did anyone find any meaning in my choices? I think the fact that it has not come up says more about the number of readers (or lack thereof) I have, than of biblical literacy, but maybe it is a little of both.
