Robert Schmidt's love for music created the lyrics for "Thank You, God." When his daughter was born, he would play music to her on a toy xylophone piano. He soon found that he was playing the same tune. As he continued to play to her at bedtime, the words to the tune became the song "Thank You, God." His idea was for the song to become a book, but in prayer, the idea came for the song to be a coloring book to teach children about Jesus. The coloring book has a QR code that, when opened, wi...

The writings explore the role of culture and context in the church's mission, lived faith, and theological articulation through vari...

Essays here present that critique ...

From its first issue in 1954, CONCERN: A Pamphlet Series for Questions of Christian Renewal ran statements identifying it as an independent publication whose purpose was to stimulate study and discussion through intentional juxtaposition of viewpoints. What constitutes the church? Do existing structures engender or hinder the church's ever-present need for renewal? What approaches or formats might more effectively "structure" its renewal? CONCERN's Mennonite editorial board and the essays ...

Meals were an important part of Jesus' ministry. He ate with prostitutes and sinners. He told the story of a dinner where the poor and homeless received a special invitation. When the prodigal son came home, his return was celebrated with feasting. Jesus even made sure there was enough wine for a wedding banquet. To a skeptical audience he said that he was the very bread of life. Then he celebrated the Passover with its rich story of liberation and deliverance. It was there that he invited...
