Charismatic Revival Fury, Part 2: Unpacked, with Dr Caleb Maskell, VUSA Associate Nat'l Director of Theology & Education.

In this episode, we'll explore the history of connection, followed by strong divergence between John Wimber (founder of the Vineyard movement) and C Peter Wagner, founder of the NAR. These episodes help us understand the role of Wimber's leadership in working to draw theological frameworks and create Biblical boundaries around a novel spiritual movement, what happened when those boundaries were ignored, and what we need to learn about temptations to power and followership of Jesus.

John Wilber - Five-fold Ministry

Charismatic Revival Fury. Part 1, w/ Dr. Matt Taylor.

Charismatic Revival Fury: The New Apostolic Reformation is an audio documentary that explains the history, leadership, and belief formation behind a growing and influential group of evangelicals in the US known as the New Apostolic Reformation, many of whom ended up at the Capitol riot on Jan 6, and many of whom are still influencing much conversation in evangelical circles. What you might not know is that in the very early days of the NAR, Vineyard founder John Wimber was in the mix. In this and the next episode, we'll explore the podcast series, learn about the NAR,  it's history and the consequence of it's ideas in American politics and on Jan 6th, and explore the strong divergence that happened very early on between John Wimber (founder of the Vineyard movement) and C Peter Wagner, founder of the NAR. These episodes help us understand the role of Wimber's leadership in working to draw theological frameworks and create Biblical boundaries around a novel spiritual movement, what happened when those boundaries were ignored, and what we need to learn about temptations to power and followership of Jesus.

Listen in as Julia, Hannah and Santos talk about practical ways we can build faith and community as they dive deeper into May's conversation about NextGen ministry.

Do you want to be inspired about how next gen Christians are being formed in faith, giftings, and identity? Julia and VC Students Pastor Santos Chaparro interview one of our VC Middle School students (and amazing production volunteer!) and a volunteer college-age leader (who was about to head into finals week!) and ask about what church has meant for them, how wrestling through vulnerable questions about identity has brought them closer to God and community, how we can continue to encourage them in faith... and why the 400 meter hurdles might be one of the BEST metaphors for life and Christian discipleship, ever. Listen in to hear the heart of our students. If you have questions about getting involved in our student ministry at any campus, please email [email protected] and she'll point you in the right direction. Also, this episode references a pastoral conversation around lgbt and faith formation... which might bring up some questions about our theology or pastoral practice. if you would like more understanding about VC's posture, theology, and pastoral practices in this space, check out www.vineyardcolumbus.org/faq and scroll down. 

What are practical ways we can steward the Earth? How do we lead our communities towards positive solutions to safeguard our cities, neighborhoods, and the next generation from the effects of a warming world and life-threatening pollution? As we gear up for Earth Day on April 22, Julia sits down with Pastor Jenney Rice to discuss creation care and why it matters.

For the month of April, we wanted to revisit an episode we aired a couple of years back about how followers of Jesus can be good stewards of our environment and think biblically about creation care.
It’s not an unpopular opinion today to say that Christians aren't necessarily known to care about the environment. But in this conversation, our executive pastor Daniel Nathan and co-senior pastor Eric Pickerill sit down with Rev. Mitchell Hescox – the President Emeritus of the Evangelical Environmental Network  - and hear Mitch unpack why he believes climate change and creation care is the greatest moral challenge of our time and how we can find opportunity for hope in building sustainable prosperity for all.

Founded in 1993, EEN is a non-partisan, non-profit organization that equips, inspires and mobilizes people of faith to worship God and love their neighbor by caring for creation. Rev. Hescox has authored numerous books, has testified before Congress, has spoken at the White House, presented at the Vatican and the council for Foreign Relations. He’s appeared on CNN, NPR, MSNBC amongst other radio and television programs.
