The Dangers of Entrepreneurship in Pastoral Ministry

February 13, 2014 by Matt Svoboda

*This was originally posted at mattsvo.com* John Piper once wrote a book titled, “Brothers, We Are Not Professionals.” It is fantastic and I recommend it for every pastor. It warns pastors of falling into the error of “professionalism.” Piper knew that falling into a spirit of professionalism as pastors could essentially destroy the essence of […]

10 things more important for the SBC than the Calvinism debate

April 27, 2012 by Matt Svoboda

That small sliver of the known universe who keeps tabs on things related to the Southern Baptist Convention cannot have missed the continual rancor over theology. More specifically, to what extent the theological system known as “Calvinism” and the wider system known as “Reformed theology” should have influence in the conventions entities and churches. An […]

Should Christians Support Israel?

March 31, 2010 by Matt Svoboda

This is a post, at full length, by Dr. Russell Moore: I highlighted a few important parts in the post and following the post I have a few questions… “Last week I stood over the Valley of Armageddon, with Israeli warjets flying overhead and the sound of the Muslim call to prayer humming all around from […]

Whosoever Will & He Who Believes

March 27, 2010 by Matt Svoboda

The book Whosoever Will, the collection of essays from the infamous “Whosoever Will” conference, is officially on sale and the book is on back order. Let’s be clear : It is absolutely fine with me that these men put on this conference and now are publishing their book.  I’m a Southern Baptist, they are free […]

How much of a churches budget should go to missions?

March 26, 2010 by Matt Svoboda

This post is somewhat a follow up from my last one, even though they are pretty different. In my last post I addressed how much pastors should(or shouldn’t) get paid.  With me, it is an issue of stewardship.  In my opinion, churches have horrific stewardship when they pay pastors monstrous salaries. But, that has already […]

Fighting Biblical and Theological Ignorance

March 3, 2010 by Matt Svoboda

I don’t know if any of you listen to “The White Horse Inn” but it is a great radio program that you should check out. They have started to do a series examining Galatians. To start this new series they went to a conservative, evangelical Bible college and simply asked, “What is the book of […]

Interpreting the Book of Revelation

February 24, 2010 by Matt Svoboda

*this is a post I wrote on my own blog a few days ago- thought itd make some good conversation! The book of Revelation has 2 different genres in it: 1) Apocalyptic literature and 2) Historical Narrative. We always interpret narrative literally- Genesis, Exodus, the Gospels, etc… Apocalyptic literature is another story. Throughout the whole […]

There will be posts written soon about certain aspects of the progress report in order to discuss some of the Task Force’s “findings” and suggestions. For now, if there is anything specific you want to discuss now, the […]

My morning at First Baptist Church of Lebanon, MO

December 8, 2009 by Matt Svoboda

I was traveling this last week and found myself at Lebanon, MO on Sunday morning.  I decided to go to First Baptist Church.  There wasn’t much to it.  It was a normal, Bible-belt traditional service.  They had a later contemporary service, but because we were traveling we went to the early, traditional service. The music […]

Missional Living- More than a thought

November 11, 2009 by Matt Svoboda

This is the end of a post I wrote late last night… Here are a few ways God has specifically challenged me with missional living: 1) To be an example to my small group about what it means to live on mission for Jesus. 2) To engage the Mormons in my own community. I have […]
