IF JESUS HAD TikTok
There wasn’t much technology in Jesus’ day. His ministry was spread on foot, by boat, and even by donkey. Jesus and His disciples wore robes and sandals and used silver as currency. Can you imagine if Jesus came down to earth in the twenty-first century? He would go from a tech-free world to a whirlwind of Instagram influencers, tweets, and TikTok dances.

DEVELOPING LEADERS THROUGH TECHNOLOGY
The term “Age of Technology” applies more today than any time in the past. Due to the pandemic this year, we have seen technology and social media become the primary medium for corporate worship, education, world news, and even personal relationships.

Back to Normal
The year 2020 will be one we remember as different from anything most of us have ever witnessed. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we were confined to our homes, were told to maintain social distancing, and had to wear masks in public. Hospitals were overcrowded with staff working long hours and some with limited supplies.

KIDS CAN SERVE
God has long been in the business of using young people for the glory of His kingdom. In Genesis chapter 37, we read how He used Joseph. Only a youth, with fantastic dreams, God’s hand was upon Joseph.

It Echoes Up the Holler
Terry Newsom and Mitchell Cathey are co-pastors of Cumberland Furnace COGOP in Dickson County, Tennessee. Because of their reputation as larger-than-life mountain movers, State Overseer E.C. McKinley has dubbed these Western Highland Rim ministers the “Cumberland Furnace Boys.” District presbyter Mike Burton asked them to co-pastor the church after faithful COGOP trailblazer, Pastor Buna Lampley (who had mentored them), went to glory.

THE GRACE OF GIVING
Apostle Peter writes, “We are being built up a spiritual house” (see 1 Peter 2:5 NKJV). In this “spiritual house,” systems and structure, while important, must well up from the essentials of deep intimate relationships with God and one another. Systems and structures should serve the church, not the church serving the systems and structures. In some cases, we have endeavored to develop a global financial system to produce a healthy global function of biblical stewardship. The essential relationships must precede the critical systems and structures for the spiritual health of the church at all levels of ministry to be fruitful.
