Activist Faith

I’ve just returned from three days at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention, the largest annual gathering of Christian media leaders from radio, television, digital, and print, held in the Opryland Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee. I met friends from Uganda, Russia, Israel, Canada, Australia, South Korea, and across the US who are investing their lives to…

I have been waiting for some time to make the announcement here, but this May, my co-authored book and DVD with Mercy Movement founder Charles Powell comes to a bookstore near you.

I’m at the National Religious Broadcasters Convention in Nashville for the next couple of days, and wanted to mention a great project they have going on to support recovery efforts in Haiti.

Yesterday, I wrote about the importance of praying for those in Libya. In addition, however, various groups are starting to provide opportunities to offer practical assistance in some…

Unrest in Libya has turned deadly for some. As the Middle East Revolution spreads, innocents are caught in the crossfire. At the very least, we should care and pray for them. As I listened to the report this morning on NPR, I realized that if the same tragedy took place in America, life would stop.…

An important petition opportunity from my friends at Open Doors USA to support religious freedom in the Middle East. Thanks for helping change the world! -Dillon +++ As revolutions grow in the Middle East, it is critical that the United States promote the freedom of religion as foundational to the formation of strong civil societies.…

Great post on the growth of the Activist Faith movement by Dan King. +++ I’ve been thinking a LOT lately about what it means to be a Christian. I remember a time when I worked in the youth group with a bunch of 8th-grade guys, and I asked them what it meant to be a Christian. I…
