One of the challenges for many Christians today is how to reconcile the numerous bad examples of Christian leaders. Thankfully, I believe there are far more good examples than bad, but there are enough bad ones to make this a significant issue. Notable names include Ravi Zacharias, Bill Hybels, Jame...
I was invited to be a guest on the Jay and Brian Show podcast. They run a mortgage company together and started a podcast out of it. Jay and I became friends when we were in a life group together years ago. Both Jay and Brian are great at rapid-fire questions and keeping the conversation interest...
My podcast is back this week after taking a month off following the completion of our last book study. In the show, I read the Bible with a friend who is a skeptic as we each process what we find in the text. We call it "The Forest and the Trees."
We put our next book up for a vote and it's time...
I taught at a church this past weekend and the passage I was given was John 15. That's the text where Jesus explains that to find our life in Him we need to think of Him as a grapevine. This was an obvious chance for me to talk about what I get to do with Communion Wine Co and how those experienc...
I was given an early copy of Os Guinness' new book, Signals of Transcendence, which comes out in March. I was instantly hooked. And yes, he is related to the beer that shares his name. Os is the great-great-great-grandson of Arthur Guinness, the Dublin brewer.

One of our rental homes is in Oregon wine country (see: Cloud Wine Cottage). Whenever I'm there, I love to go and walk. I love to experience nature. There are vines I get to walk by and pine trees. It's just gorgeous. And there's this loop I walk often that's about three miles long.

It's a new year and maybe you're hoping for a new version of you (or at least a better version of you). It's something a lot of us want this time of year. You might be thinking about goals or how to improve certain areas.
There's a really easy and simple way for you to 'level up' and that is to ...

I decided to create a blog back in 2006. I discovered the domain JeremyJernigan.com was already taken by an earlier adopter with my same name. Which was quite a bummer for an aspiring blogger. Even worse, the domain was taken by someone hosting less content than a MySpace page.
I tried at that t...
