The Church and Politics

August 18, 2020 by Tony Jones

You might read the title and think this will be a controversial post. It is not intended to be controversial, just a summary of “Politics in the Life of a Church”, a livestream event featuring Jonathan Leeman. The event was hosted by Downtown Cornerstone Church in Seattle, and if you have time to view all […]

My Visit to Southern Hills Baptist in Sioux City

August 13, 2020 by Tony Jones

I’m writing this post for two reasons. First, God instructs us in His word to be encouragers, to spur one another on to good works. I want to be an encourager. Second, our fearless leader, Dave Miller, sounded like he needs a little encouragement, judging from his last post. My family vacationed at Mt. Rushmore […]

Where were we in 2010?

January 2, 2020 by Tony Jones

Where were you 10 years ago?  When the calendar flipped to 2010, what were you doing?  Were you serving in your current ministry?  Did you have as many kids/grandkids as you have today?  Who were your friends?  What lessons did you learn between 2010 and 2020? Here are a few reminders of where the world […]

Week in Review: ‘Twas the Night Before Impeachment

December 15, 2019 by Tony Jones

It’s time for the week in review, and since there was very little happening in our Baptist world, I give you “Twas the Night Before Impeachment.” ‘Twas the night before impeachment, And all through the house, Adam Schiff could be heard Starting to grouse. The charges were written. They claimed they were fair. In hopes […]

Week in Review: It’s all about Bowls

December 9, 2019 by Tony Jones

It’s time for the week in review. Is this the third? Or maybe it’s two. What happened this week in Southern Baptist life? There was no fussing, no cussing, no strife. Paige Patterson authored a letter, That doesn’t make him look any better. Maybe he thought no one would see How he questioned Luter’s views […]

The Week in Review: Dave Miller’s Question and Much More Too

December 3, 2019 by Tony Jones

(This was submitted a few days ago, but in my turkey stupor, I didn’t check the site or post anything). It’s the final week of November, What is there to remember? Dave Miller asked of CB Scott, “Why does Bama grapple for a playoff spot?” He thinks they’re full of rot. But little does he […]

A poem: The Week in Review

November 26, 2019 by Tony Jones

I’ve tried my hand at poetry before, but never in public, so here’s my offering for those events pertaining to us Baptists this week: I woke Monday morning, rolled out of bed I looked through the haze, what had my phone said? The Twitter blew up, Chik-Fil-A is corrupt. I checked on the story, again […]

Oh No, Chick-Fil-A caved. The World is Ending

November 20, 2019 by Tony Jones

The Twitter-verse was set ablaze yesterday as Chick-Fil-A anounced a redistribution of its charitable donations beginning next year.  Conservative Christian leaders immediately took to social media to denounce the restaurant chain as cowards, compromisers, and cavers. Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee wrote via twitter:  In August 2012, I coordinated a national Chick-Fil-A appreciation dayafter they […]

Ruminations and Observations from Missouri’s Annual Meeting

November 1, 2019 by Tony Jones

The Missouri Baptist Convention held its annual meeting this past Monday and Tuesday in Branson.  Here a few observations and ruminations.

Prayers for IMB Friday June 14

June 14, 2019 by Tony Jones

This is a story from one of our missionaries.  It is reprinted here with permission. All of us have stories to tell… about our lives, circumstances we may find ourselves in, or even simply what was done that day. As a journalism student I was taught to listen, but in our busy lives today, I […]

Acts 1–Our sending God

May 31, 2019 by Tony Jones

This is the Friday post from Prayers for IMB: In the first chapter of Acts we encounter our sending God.  I’ll begin in verse 3, “After He had suffered, He also presented Himself alive to them by many convincing proofs, appearing to them during 40 days and speaking about the Kingdom of God.”   God sent His Son.  He sent His Son, […]
