Showing results for "John Brooks" in Religion & Spirituality

The church is the origin, means, and end of missions. Scripture calls on missionaries to start and strengthen churches where new believers—and more missionaries—can grow. But today, many Christians downplay the role of the church in favor of pragmatism and parachurch ministries, weakening the mission's cause.

Hosted by Dr. Kelly J. Baker and John Brooks. Kelly and John invite other people from the wide and wild world of religious studies to talk to them about why and how they do what they do and why their work matters to us all. They also talk to each other about the ideas, stories, and histories that fascinate them and that they think you should know about, too.

Students of divine science rejoice in the all-inclusiveness of this teaching. Nothing is excluded; all is to be understood and interpreted aright. An omnipresent god does not confine the revelation of himself to any one channel, but he flows into expression wherever he is given the right of way. Therefore, every ardent and persistent seeker discovers truth, and as a result, contributes something toward the well-being of mankind.
