    The Neighboring Church (Conversation with Rick Rusaw)- KR 24 Aug 01, 2016
    Show notes

    What if the Church got better at the two things Jesus said mattered most? If the Church is going to thrive in this changing world a pivotal thing is going to be being a good neighbor. Rick Rusaw and Lifebridge Christian Church have been on a journey to love God better through actually loving their literal neighbors. Rick gives some practical advice on how churches can better equip congregations to get to know and love the people they live near.

    Race and the Kingdom (Interview with Derwin Gray) - KR 23 Jul 07, 2016
    Show notes

    Racial tension is as at a high point. The embodiment of the Kingdom found in the New Testament and lived out through the Church was to be a vision of unity and diversity. The Church in America, unfortunately, has remained one of the most segregated organizations instead of being a vision for unity and diversity. Pastor Derwin Gray and Transformation Church is a shining light of how the Church can be the type of diverse community it was intended to be. Hear about Pastor Derwin’s journey of planting Transformation Church, the challenges they faced from being a multiethnic church, and steps any church can take to become a richer expression of the diverse Kingdom of God.

    Paul and His Missionary Friends (Part 2)- KR 22 Jun 23, 2016
    Show notes

    When God calls His people into mission He doesn’t call individuals, rather He calls a community. Paul exemplifies this reality with his missionary friends. These friends are indispensable to how God used Paul to bring the kingdom to take root in the 1st Century world. Some of Paul’s closest missionary friends included Priscilla and Aquila who provide a beautiful example of an entire household doing ministry together. Epaphras is another great example of how Paul befriended a nonbeliever, led them into a relationship with Jesus, and sent them out to do ministry. Have a question for Scot? In a few weeks, Scot will be fielding your questions from any of the topics discussed on Kingdom Roots. If you would like to send in your question(s) please email them to Chaz Robbins at crobbins@seminary.edu.


    Paul and His Missionary Friends (Part 1) - KR 21 Jun 17, 2016
    Show notes

    In the words of the great theologian Bill Withers, “We all need somebody to lean on.” It can be very tempting to make ministry into a solo endeavor and not realize the importance of having friends to be with you as you do ministry together. Paul gives a clear example of how ministry can and should be done together with other people. Relationships prove to be an essential element of his missionary work.

    The Quest for the Historical Jesus (Part 2) - KR 19 Jun 02, 2016
    Show notes

    Should the Church and its believers have confidence in the reliability of Jesus found in the Gospels? Dr. McKnight tackles this question and more for followers to be confident of the person of Jesus as described in the Gospels. When we correctly study Jesus and his life in light of faith the result is the deepest possible understanding about Jesus. If the Kingdom is going to take root now, then we need to seriously pursue this study of Jesus. Recommended/ Mentioned Resources: Jesus and the Victory of God by N.T.

    Church Structure Then and Now - KR 17 May 19, 2016
    Show notes

    Church leadership and structure in the New Testament is much more concerned with the character and transformation of the person leading than the role they play. If we want the Kingdom to take root like it did in the 1st Century then Church leadership and structure needs to reflex the cruciform character of Jesus. The character of the King determines the character of the Kingdom and King Jesus leads His Church by calling her leaders to take up the model of servant leadership that He exemplified in His life.
