Pastors’ Spotlight- Jorge Escalante
The hyphen: integrating the immigrant into ministry
Thrive Financial Spotlight: Jason Parker
Now, nearing the end of the TFI process, the Parker family have worked toward the Thrive team’s collective goals, paying down all $20,000 in debt, and are completely debt-free as they now work on the next step (building their savings fund).
Houghton College Alumni Spotlight: John Rhett
“This is one of the greatest challenges for a teacher at a Christian college – for a teacher that is a believer – how to educate, expose and equip young minds to make their way through a visual culture…”
Houghton College Alumni Spotlight: Taylor Wilding
“Everything you do or don’t do; everything you say or don’t say sends a message–so make sure all you do or say reorients people toward Christ and not toward the world.”
Neighborhood Faith: Urban Ministry in Portland
“In the church planting world, a lot of the language we use is colonialist. We say, ‘We have God and we will bring him to these people.’ But one of my discoveries has been that God was always in Portland and at work in Portland,” Doiron said.
