  • Stand By the Door

    A few days ago, one of our guests asked me why I always stand by the door during lunch service?  I do it because I want to greet each and every guest, look them in the eye, shake a hand, pat a shoulder, bump a fist. I want to hear — listen — to them →

  • How a Church in the South Transformed Itself, Welcoming All – NBC News

    This is an amazing and powerful story of how one Southern evangelical mega-church has transformed itself. Worth watching the video (link below).

    This Fall at my church (Riverfront Family Church in Glastonbury CT), we are launching some new small group “huddles”.

    Here is Part 2 of my conversation with Pastor Joshua Gagnon on his Leadership Podcast (click here for Part 1). I think it is a great and meaty conversation about LGBT issues and the church — and especially as it relates to churches that hold more traditional views on LGBT issues and how they can →

  • When Gay Rubber Meets Church Road

    Cards on the table: I believe that the best and most faithful readings of scripture support full inclusion of LGBT folks in the full life of the church. To me, it comes down to the Love Test — what fulfills Christ’s command to love best and what produces love in others the best; and the →

  • Podcast: Joshua Gagnon Leadership

    Here is Part 1 of the podcast I recently was on with Pastor Joshua Gagnon of Next Level Church. Josh was my pastor when I attended one of the Next Level locations when living in MA. While Josh is definitely more conservative than I am on LGBT issues, I have great respect for him and →
