An alternative to multi-sites. As big churches continue to grow, eventually most of them consider multi-site ministry. John Mark Comer is taking a large Portland church in a very different direction, Farewell Franchise Ministry.
Sept 3, 2014: TLC: Audrey Botti: Jeremy's Marriage Proposal
I will end my story by sharing something that I read just a few days prior to the day of the proposal. Itʼs from a book called Loveology, which was written by John Mark Comer (the pastor of our church in Portland). “But do get married when you see who God is making somebody to be, and it lights you up. When you want to be part of that story of transformation. That journey to the future. When you are well aware it will be a long and bumpy ride, but you donʼt want to miss one mile. Because you believe in Godʼs calling on them, and you want in.” – John Mark Comer
July 9, 2014: Youtube: Loveology Small Group Bible Study by John Mark Comer
This is why I pray men and women wouldn't use each other for sex. To cheat on a man or woman is not only hurtful for the persons in the relationship but hurtful to God. Even when it comes to fiction like my boyfriend's favorite character Barney from How I Met Your Mother because it creates false Love. The opposite of Love is Fear/Hate/Jealousy. People were never created to be used as objects. Making Love is when two humans souls are fused together becoming ONE FLESH. Its always about Love. Never about comedy or entertainment. God created Us to Love God and to Love one another. What is God's reason for Love? Not to be used. It's meant to flourish His Spirit within you.

Okay, so Love-ology is written by John Mark Comer and it's a book on, well, you probably already guessed it, love. He talks on what a God honoring relationship looks like, how to have one, how far is "too far" when you're dating, etc., etc.

I don’t know John Mark Comer or Solid Rock Church where he pastors. But I resonate with what he says in this interview about their move away from a multi-site mega church model to a family of independent churches. This is what I have been urging so I am heartened to see this being done.

Z-NEWS NOTES: Feb 8, 2013: Amid the coverage and criticism of his recent sermon entitled, "Yahweh Elohim," John Mark Comer, pastor of Solid Rock Church in Portland, Oregon, has offered the following attempted clarification on his Facebook page:
Solid Rock family, Some of you have been asking some great questions about my recent teaching “Yahweh Elohim” and Solid Rock’s theology. To clarify, we are NOT polytheists. We ARE monotheists. We believe there is ONE real, true Creator God with NO equal or parallel. By using the language of “Creational Monotheism,” we are saying there are real spiritual beings in the universe UNDER the Creator God Yahweh. The demonic powers we read about in the scriptures are not “non-entities,” but are real. The New Testament calls them “demons,” “angels,” “spirits,” “powers,” “princes,” and “principalities,” but the primary Hebrew word used in the Old Testament is elohim or “gods.” These beings are “gods with a lowercase g.” They are not on par with the Creator God Yahweh. They are created, but have rebelled against their Creator to wreak havoc on the earth. This is the worldview of Jesus and of the Scriptures. By using the language of “Creational Monotheism vs. Modern Monotheism," we are challenging the post-enlightenment, Western European view of monotheism from the last 300 years that says there are no other spiritual beings in the universe. We don’t buy it, and we don’t think Jesus does either. At Solid Rock it is our deepest conviction to know and pursue the ways of King Jesus, to understand and adopt his way of thinking and his worldview. Stay rooted in the Scriptures, keep asking questions, and above all follow the Creator God in Jesus!
