View Article  The Power of Forgiveness
by Mike McLoughlin on Wed 23 Aug 2006 12:38 PM PDT

At New Life Church Kelowna it is the power of forgiveness that we need. There are many people who are in pain. Leadership is in pain because they made a very difficult decision to terminate the working relationship with the founding pastors of the church,  Wesley & Stacey Campbell. (see Joint Public Statement) The Campbell's are in pain because the decision came as a shock to them and dashed their hopes for an apostolic ministry (see Be a Hero) based out of the church. The congregation is in pain because the Campbell's were the vision carriers for the ministry of ...   more »

View Article  Overcoming Office Politics by Following the Pathway of the Cross
by Mike McLoughlin on Sun 16 Apr 2006 05:41 PM PDT

In my previous post I talked about a Christian response to bullying in the workplace. I recommended that the person being bullied make a diary and appeal to higher authorities if the bullying does not stop. In this post, I caution Christians against the temptation to play office politics to get the upper hand even though they may feel justified because they are being treated unfairly.

For what I mean by ...   more »

by Mike McLoughlin on Sat 01 Apr 2006 09:59 AM PST

I read it today in the morning newspaper! He’s living in Siberia at a mountain top retreat. His followers are encamped around him in a community called “Sun City.” They have a website where you can find out all about what he’s up to. (See the Globe and Mail article if you are interested. I’d rather not link to it from my site. J )

Seems to me somewhat suspicious ...   more »

View Article  Don t listen to what the communists say, watch what the communists do!
by Mike McLoughlin on Tue 21 Jun 2005 04:36 PM PDT
These are the words of the former President of South Vietnam, Nguyen Van Thieu, who was warning the world about the future of his nation under a communist government. I thought of how it applies not only to communists but to all people who purportedly have a cause to serve, a promise to prove or a commitment to keep such as Christians in the workplace. Seeing Christians at work...    more »

View Article  Jesus is risen from the dead! Therefore our work is not in vain!
by Mike McLoughlin on Sun 27 Mar 2005 08:29 AM PST

Since our inception as human beings we have had a mandate from God to wisely order his good creation (Genesis 1:26). According to certain theologians this is a waste of time (see previous post) since we should really be investing our time in what lasts. Heaven is what lasts not earth, therefore, we must focus on spiritual growth and evangelism and not  worry too much about mundane work. ...   more »
