Theology at the Bottleworks…Visited

22 January 2008 By 10 Comments

On the Monday January 21 edition of The Mike Corley Program, I shared an interview with Jonathan McIntosh, one of the pastors at The Journey in St. Louis, MO, as we discussed the event Theology at the Bottleworks. Jonathan and I talk about the formation of the event, its goals and what role it plays in missions and evangelism. Our conversation was recorded from the lobby of the Schafly Bottleworks immediately following the Midrash event for January.

I made the trip to St. Louis for a couple of reasons, but first and foremost to meet Darrin Patrick for myself. The lead pastor of The Journey and I had exchanged several emails over the course of a year and at some point he extended an invitation to me to come and see for myself.

As much as I looked forward to meeting Pastor Patrick, I wanted to look him in the eye and apologize for a harsh and judgmental spirit. I wrote a blog article back in January 2007 concerning an event hosted by The Journey called Theology at the Bottleworks. Although I would still strongly disagree with any ministry that would incorporate any tool to reach people that would detract from the message and integrity of the Gospel, Further research and conversation, and prayer, led me to the conviction that I jumped to conclusions in some ways. I also was convicted of the Lord that I was not exhibiting the compassion and mercy I should have as a believer. [Read more...]

The Journey St. Louis

18 January 2008 By Leave a Comment

I returned just a little while ago from my trip St. Louis and our meetings with the kind folks at The Journey. Also, last evening I attended the event known as Theology at the Bottleworks. I dont mean this post to be a tease, but I will share with you all my reflections on all of this tomorrow, because quite frankly…I am pooped!

I do want to express once again my gratitude to Darrin Patrick, Jonathan McIntosh, Michael, Brian and Ross for all their help and encouragement.

So tune in here tomorrow, same bat time, same bat channel, for the …scoop.
