The Urban Remnant: March 2011

Set to the song "River Rise" by india.arie, "Surrender Today" is a montage of words and pictures all leading to a crescendo of the human soul: our own deep need for surrender.

Let Us Rise Up and Build

What would happen if faithful disciples of Jesus Christ returned to and/or remained in our cities to repair the broken "walls" of its communities? Nothing short of revival and spiritual awakening. As ambassadors for Christ, we have received the Ministry of Reconciliation that Paul writes about in 2 Corinthians 5: 18-20. This is a ministry dedicated to restoring man's relationship with God, a ministry that God Himself has entrusted to His chosen people. If God counts us as His own, then this ministry of reconciliation is ours. Surely if we desire to come after Christ, we must deny ourselves, pick up our crosses daily and follow Him. He will, then, lead us into the broken places.
