ACA and Samaritan Health Insurance is a supporter note about some things happening and how it affects us and our insurer, Samaritan Ministries. Samaritan Ministries is a Christian health insurance that has monthly donations where you directly pay another member of the group, and once a year you send your share that month to the main office for their expenses. I highly recommend it. You have to sign a doctrinal statement to get in, and promise you are not using drugs or alcohol. Excellent!

The Objective for Preaching
by David Cox
It is amazing to me just how off-base so many preachers can get. There is a God given purpose for a church to exist. When you think about it, we (pastors and churches) are the work of God. God is not doing much outside of Christians, ministers, and churches. Maybe somebody can make a case that He does work outside of that framework, but for every little bit He works outside of that frame, He works thousands of times more within that frame of the church.
But we need to always keep our heads clear, and focus on what is God’s purpose for us. We can summarize the work of God (done mostly through ministers, members, and the church) as being the salvation of souls, and their edification.

Flawed Modern Missionary Methods Summary: This article is my view of why some of the way we do things in missions today is just wrong.
Topics are:
1) Missionaries are distanced from church people.
2) We expect missionaries to put on a song and dance show for the church people, but the churches never let them actually do what is their ministry.
3) We are locked into a Madison Avenue mentality that says, only with spending a lot of money can you do anything serious.
4) We have distorted and destroyed biblical spirituality.
5) We are experts at missions, all the while never “producing” or “reproducing” ourselves.
