It’s a pervasive system of thought that, like every other system of thought the ... http://www.nateschlomann.com/?p=30 This is going to be a really random post. You see, I don’t take words too seriously. Perhaps in some sense words have meaning, but people don’t know what they mean when they say them. Nor do people understand what is meant when they hear them. Someone recently asked me if ... http://www.nateschlomann.com/?p=29 Several more abilities have manifested themselves. Yesterday I developed the ability to detect real estate for sale nearby, wherever I happen to be. Additionally, I can now check all my e-mail accounts from anywhere and reply from each of them.

I hate leaving things unsaid or not answering objections, which means I'm left with 25 unposted blogs over the last couple months (seriously). So here goes. The idea of a specific calling ... http://www.nateschlomann.com/?p=24 This week we’re studying the importance of prayer and connecting with God from the last section of Ephesians 3. This is something our community must start doing if we’re going to be about the mission of Jesus like we want to be. Right now we’ve got a lot of people ... http://www.nateschlomann.com/?p=23 Being missional involves both intent and intensity. It involves both sincerity and scope.
