KKIM NEWS ALERT
Dear KKIM Family,
We have a new Ministry on KKIM, "Life in the City" with Pastor Alan Hawkins of New Life City Church in Albuquerque.
I am hearing such wonderful comments on Pastor Alan's preaching. KKIM's Frank Haley just text me and said he just loves to hear Alan preach.
Alan has brought Pastor Ted Haggard to town. Pastor Haggard's life crashed in 2006 over revelations of homosexual behavior and drug use.
Tonight on New Mexico News and Views at 4:30, we will talk to Pastor Ted about what he has been through, where he is at now, and what he will be talking about at New Life City at 6:30 tonight, 2pm Saturday and 10am Sunday. New Life City is at 4830 Pan American Freeway.
Pastor Alan says, "My invitation to him is just because I love him and he's a valuable human being. My belief has always been that a person is not defined by his worst moments (DEWEY NOTE: HAVING CRASHED MYSELF YEARS AGO I APPRECIATE ALAN'S WORDS) and that his lifetime of good service was not canceled by this action."
HEADLINE IN LEADERSHIP MAGAZINE:
Can Your Church handle the Truth?
Matt Russell says........
I am afraid that in many America Churches, we are not telling the truth------at least not the whole truth.
In many Churches we assume that once you accept Jesus as your Savior, you get involved in your church and your life gets better. This is the standard story repeated in "testimony time" on Sundays, and the unspoken assumption regarding discipleship.
This "narrative of ascendency" has become the dominant American narrative of the gospel, rooted in American optimism and confidence. It is beautiful, compelling, and powerful. But is it the whole truth?
Pastor Jim Cymbala says the number one problem of the American Church is not the plague of Internet pornography that is consuming our men. It's not divorce. The number one sin of the Church in America is that Pastor's and leaders are not on their knees crying out to God, "Bring us the drug addicted, bring us the prostitutes, bring us the gang leaders, bring us those with Aids, bring us the people nobody else wants, whom only YOU can heal, and let us love them in YOUR name until they are whole."
What would Jesus do? Who did he stick around with?
Pastor Cymbala by the way wrote the book, "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire"
Hope you are by your radio this afternoon at 4:30. Don't forget if you are out of state listen at www.mykkim.com
See ya on the Radio, Love ya, Dewey
