Redeeming God Redeeming Me

Redeeming God? What’s that about?

Remember when Drew Marshall made fun of my blog name “Till He Comes“? I laughed it off because he said what I had been thinking for quite a while.

I never switched the name of my blog because I never had a better title. But a while back I realized that redemption is a huge theme in my life, and redemption is what God is calling me to call people to.

You may notice that “redeeming God” is a play on words. The word “Redeeming” can be both an adjective and a present participle. It can describe God (He is a Redeemer) or it can describe the action of seeking to redeem God. Which way do I intend it? I intend both. God is redeeming us, but he also needs to be redeemed. I hope to invite people into both arenas through this blog.

Read my “About” page for more.

Here are a few other things about RedeemingGod.com

Posting Frequency

On the Till He Comes blog, I tried to post 5-6 times per week. On this blog, I may occasionally post that frequently, but I might only post 5-6 times per year. This time around, I will publish posts, not because I have to, but because I have something to say. I will publish posts only when I have fire in my bones (Jer 20:9).

Old Content Cultivation and Curation

One of my short-term goals is to edit/cultivate/curate a lot of the old content on this blog. I want to correct various things on some of my old posts and sermon pages. I want to make some series of posts more accessible to readers. Some of my content might even get converted into a podcast.

Since I have well over 2000 posts and pages on this site, this process could take quite some time…

If you want to follow along with some of the changes that occur, you won’t actually see much of it here on the blog. Most of it will get posted on my Facebook page and on Twitter. So if you want to observe some of these “behind the scenes” changes, make sure you join me on Facebook and Twitter.

Wait! Did you Mention A Podcast?

Yes, I might start a podcast.

One problem I had with my old blog was that it consumed me. I don’t want that to happen again. A podcast is a huge undertaking, so if I start one, it might be something I do instead of publishing blog posts.

Maybe.

Hey, where are the comments?

You may notice that I turned off the comment section. Read the black box at the bottom of the page for a brief explanation.

And again, I might turn comments back on in the future. But I might not.

Are you still sending out free eBooks?

Maybe.

For right now, people can still get Skeleton Church for free by subscribing to my email newsletter. This might change in the future, but it might not. I don’t know if I will publish more books in the future or not. I suspect I will, but I don’t know when, I don’t know what, and I don’t know how. If I do publish more books, and I am able to send them out for free to people who get my blog updates, I will do so.

I am also working on a way for subscribers to get many of my older books for free through email. But again, this might happen and it might not. (Are you seeing a theme here?)

What happened to the forum?

Nobody really used it, so it’s gone.

If enough people complain, maybe I will bring it back. But maybe not.

Did Adam have a belly button?

Of course he did, silly!

Well, maybe not… 😉

I am Dying … (So I Can Live Again)

By Jeremy Myers

48 Comments

One of the themes of my life is that death precedes resurrection.

I firmly believe that many people hold on to personal goals and pet projects long after they should have let them die a natural death. If we would let these things die, this would enable God to raise up something new in our life from the dust and ashes of the past.

I wrote about this in The Death and Resurrection of the Church. Churches often keep programs running for many years after they have ceased contributing anything to the life of Jesus in the church. If a church would remove programs from life-support, they would see God raise up new leaders with new ideas for new ways to reach new people.

But talking about letting things die is one thing. Actually letting things die is quite another.

I have recently begun to feel God calling me to let a lot of things in my life die.

What things?

Specifically, most of the things related to my “online presence.”

This blog.

My publishing company.

My books.

My writing.

My web design work.

My Twitter account.

My Facebook account.

I feel that God is calling me to allow everything that makes me “me” to die.

Why? Because my online presence has consumed the real-life me.

When I first started my website over fifteen years ago, I wrote just for the fun of writing.

But in the last year or two, writing has become a burden, a chore. It has become something I must do so that I can maintain everything I have built up to this point. Rather than being excited about some new insight from Scripture or idea about theology which I get to pass on to others, my writing has become more about pageviews, backlinks, ad revenue, email subscriber stats, book sales, and comment counts. And as I have come to focus on these, the thrill and joy of study and writing has disappeared.

So I feel God wants me to just let it all die.

This is terrifying for me.

I have spent countless thousands of hours building my website and getting it to the place it is now. Can I just let it all go?

I generate money every month from advertisements and books sales which I have come to depend upon for monthly bills. What will I do without that money?

I have made some good online friends through online blogging and writing. Will they now disappear?

I do feel, however, that if I let everything die, God will raise something up from the ashes. I feel that God has something more for me than the tiny little blogging and book publishing empire I have built for myself (Which is not an empire at all, but more like a cool-aid stand on the corner…)

But at the same time, I wish that before I let everything die, God would tell me what He is going to resurrect. That would make the dying so much easier.

Yet I know that God does not work that way… Every time I have seen death lead to resurrection in my life, I have never, not once, known what the season of resurrection was going to look like during the time I was going through the season of death.

So I am going to let things die, and then see what God raises up in His own time.

Here is what this looks like for my blog and books:

I am not actually “killing” anything. I’m not going to delete this blog or cancel my Facebook account. I am just going to step back from it all. I am taking a break from online activity.

For the most part, I will not be very active on Twitter, Facebook, or on this blog. For how long? I do not know. It may be a month. It may be a year. It may be forever. I just don’t know.

Nothing that is currently online will be taken down. I am leaving up all my blogs and websites. I just will not be adding content to them regularly (if at all).

I do, of course, have some commitments to tie up. I have agreed to publish some books through Redeeming Press. This will get done. Those authors who are already published will continue to receive royalty payments.

I am blogging once a week in preparation for the “All About Eve” conference. That will continue as well.

But that’s about it.

I think one reason God is calling me to die to all this is because very little of it is me. Over the past two years, I have come to see that God does not want us to be like Him, nor does God want us to be like Jesus. God calls us to be fully us.

We most glorify God and we most reveal Jesus only when we live up to who God made us to be and where Jesus is leading us to go.

As long as we try to be like God and point people to Jesus, we are hiding from and even denying the person God has made us to be.

As I look back over my research, study, and writing from the past several years, I see that I have been doing everything I can to not be me, but to be someone else instead. This is not all bad, because we learn by imitation, but God has recently been calling me to be me.

Since I am not sure I know what that means, the me I have become must die so that the me God desires can rise up refreshed and renewed.

So until God raises up something new in my life, or gives me direction on what He wants me to do, or maybe just gives me permission to pick back up where I left off because I needed a Sabbath rest, I will not regularly publish new blog posts, write new books, respond to comments, or interact with people much on the various social sites. If you send me email, I cannot promise I will respond to that either. I just feel God calling me to die.

And when resurrection comes … as it always does … it will be in God’s timing, in God’s way, and for God’s purposes.

See you on the other side!

The Day I Met Jesus

Thanks for helping Rescue Girls from Sex Slavery

By Jeremy Myers

3 Comments

If you had lived back during the days of slavery, would you have helped slaves gain freedom?

If you answered “Yes!” then keep reading…

First, I want to thank those of you who donated to help me rescue girls from sex slavery.

I said I would cut off one inch of hair for every $100 dollars raised. I raised almost $600, but went ahead and cut off over 10 inches of hair anyway. I didn’t get enough to shave my head though!

Here are the Before and After shots:

That second shot was with my webcam, which obviously as terrible color….

Anyway, if you would have helped rescue slaves from slavery, you still can. There is more slavery today than at any other time of history, and most of these slaves are young girls. How much more dire could it get?

If you are somehow still not aware of the crazy epidemic of slavery in our world (and here in the United States!) RIGHT NOW, go see some of the stats on this page about Forced Prostitution.

And just think about this: Current estimates say that about 12 million Africans were shipped across the Atlantic for slavery from the 16th to the 19th centuries.

But according to Human Trafficking Statistics, there are CURRENTLY 12.3 million slaves RIGHT NOW. Yes, this year.

And many of them are children who are forced into prostitution. The average age is 12-14 years old. Most are girls. California has 3 of the 13 highest child sex trafficking areas. Some of them are raped 30-40 times EACH DAY.

Human Trafficking and child slavery is more common today than it was during the 300 years of slavery of our past.

There are more slavery victims this year than the total number of slaves during the entire 300 years of slavery in the past.

If you want to help, our favorite organization is the International Justice Mission.

How to Raise Children When Not “Attending” Church

By Jeremy Myers

18 Comments

When parents seek to follow Jesus by being the church in their communities (rather than by simply attending church), one of the questions that often comes up is “What about our children? How will they learn about the Bible? How will they discover Jesus? How will they learn to worship God?”

First of all, here is what it DOES NOT look like. Ever. At least, not in any family I have ever seen:

So how do we raise children if we don’t “attend church”?

I don’t have all the answers to these questions, but note, first of all, that the prevalence of such questions reveals how broken “church” has become. I mean, according to Scripture, it is the parent’s responsibility to raise up their children and teach them about God, but our modern way of doing church relinquishes these things to 45 minutes on Sunday morning and Wednesday night, in a building with a (generally) controlled environment, and to a person we don’t really know.

Isn’t that crazy?

How did we go from “Train up a child in the way he should go” (Prov 22:6) and “Teach these things to your children … ” (Deut 6:7; 11:19) to asking, “So what did you learn in Sunday school today?” on the drive home from church?

I sometimes think that the simple act of sitting in a pew on Sunday morning gives our children a terrible misconception about what it means to worship God and follow Jesus. The activity of “attending church” rather than being the church in our day-to-day lives can give the impression to our children that loving God and following Jesus is a “Sunday morning in the pew” activity, rather than a minute-by-minute awareness throughout the day.

Anyway, again, I don’t have all the answers … in fact, I don’t have ANY answers.

But here is my basic approach: We teach and train our children by loving them. Your children will not learn about God if you “go to church” but then treat them like crap the rest of the week.

Children learn to imitate what we do; not by what we say or what we tell them to do.

Remember that raising children to follow Jesus “outside the institutional church” is not at all the same thing as raising them to follow “outside the church.” If you are seeking to follow Jesus with your life, you are still raising your children within the church, and may be doing a better job of it than if you sat in a pew on Sunday morning and hoped that your children were learning something downstairs.

Over at the “All About Eve” blog which I am writing for, Eve asked these questions about parenting, and I proposed a bit of an answer. Here is an excerpt from what I said:

So while parenting might be the “good” you focus on right now, this does not mean you cannot get a job, write a book, care for the needy in your community, or do any of the other “good” things available for you to do right now. You might do any or all of them. But if you do, and if you have chosen to focus on loving your children, then these other things can be done in light of loving and training them. Take a job, for instance. You could show your children love through a part-time job by showing up for work on time, not bad-mouthing your boss or coworkers at home, and wisely using the money that you earn. This is just an example, but you probably get the point.

Go read Eve’s question here, and the rest of my response here.

Recently, I also heard a pretty good podcast about this. It was called “The Wild Ones.” You can listen to it here: The Wild Ones by Darrin Hufford.

Certainly, as we follow Jesus into the world, other people speak into the lives of our children, but raising and loving our children in the ways of God is not something we pass off to the youth pastor or the Sunday school teacher. It is a day-in and day-out way of living life before our children with Jesus by our side.

Do you have children? Are you seeking to teach them to follow Jesus outside of the “four walls” of institutional Christianity, and into a moment-by-moment relationship with God and others? If so, what ideas can you share? What challenges have you faced? What are your fears and how have you dealt with them?

Help Rescue Girls from Forced Prostitution

Rather than write a bunch of words about the dire problem of human trafficking and forced prostitution, I decided to just post some pictures and infographics. Sex slavery and forced child prostitution a bigger issue than most realize, and it is is huge problem right here in the United States. You most likely have human trafficking and child prostitutes right in your own town.

Do We Suffer from the Illusion of Control?

By Jeremy Myers

16 Comments

I wrote the second post for the “All About Eve” blog, and as I was writing it, I was pretty sure that most of what I was writing was … well … not quite what I wanted to say. But I published the post late last night anway, and went to bed.

When I woke up this morning, I knew where I had gone wrong, and am now writing this post…

It is not that what I wrote was wrong; it just was not helpful. “Eve” was grappling with issues of control, and I basically told her that she needed to get in control of her desire to control.

That doesn’t make any sense does it?

When we try to control our desire to control, all we do is amplify our sense of control.

We often call it “letting go of control” but really, all we are doing is trying to gain more control over our life.

Here is the vicious cycle that happens: A person recognizes that they are trying to control others. They see this as bad and feel guilty about this control. So they try to “let go of control,” but when they fail at this also, they now feel guilty about the control AND feel guilty about failing to let go of control. Now they have a double whammy of guilt, which only exacerbates the problem.

You see? When we try to let go of control, we are trying to control control, and since we can neither control people and events, nor let go of control, we walk around in an ever-increasing state of guilt about how we are always trying to control others and how we wish we wouldn’t do this.

What is the fix for our issues with control?

Well, this is where I don’t have many answers. I know for a fact that I am still trying to exert great control in my own life, and I become quite fearful when I see that I cannot.

However, these wise words from Master Oogway to Shifu were helpful:

But here is what is interesting … If you have seen the movie, you know that when Shifu trained Thai Lang, he did exactly as Master Oogway has suggested. He believed in Thai Lang. But Thai Lang’s lust for power led him down a path toward darkness that Shifu never wanted nor intended. This is partly why Shifu is now trying to control the situation. But he cannot.

And I think that this is my problem as well. In the past, when I have believed in God for my future, and believed in the best of others, it has only led to great heartache and pain. Since I do not want to experience that pain and heartache again, I try to exert control over others in my life, and over life itself.

And lest we think we can disregard Master Oogway because he is only speaking some sort of Eastern mysticism crap, the Bible pretty much says the same thing. Passages like James 4;13-17, Proverbs 16:9, and Proverbs 19:21 all reveal that when it comes to control of what happens in our life, control is an illusion. Sure, as Shifu points out in the video clip above, there are a few things we can control, but in the grand scheme of our life, these few things are so insignificant, they amount to having hardly any control at all.

As Perry Noble has written:

It is amazing when we sit back and begin to understand how little control we actually have in the world.

I did not control the day I was born! /li>
I did not control who my parents were!

I did not control where I was born!

I did not control the color of my skin, eyes and hair.

I will not control when and where I step into eternity.

I cannot control other drivers on the road.

I cannot control what other people think about me.

I cannot control my daughter’s future. (I can try to direct it…but I can’t control it!)

I cannot control the weather.

I cannot control how fast (or slow) my food gets to me in a restaurant.

I cannot control how fast (or slow) the person in front of me is driving.

I cannot control whether or not someone I know and loves prays to receive Christ.

I cannot control the fact that my body is breaking down (I heal/repair MUCH slower at 40 than I did at 20!)

I cannot control God by my religious performance.

Freedom, TRUE freedom, is understanding how out of control we are and then placing our faith in a God who has NEVER ceased to maintain control over what He has created.

So… to everyone who feels like you are out of control…it’s because YOU ARE!!! And, the more we try to control the more likely we are to live in complete rebellion to the one who is in control, who has all things in His hands and who constantly calls us to surrender to Him so that we can experience the joy of living under HIS Sovereignty rather than having to constantly discover that we have none of our own!

So If Control is an Illusion, How Can We Live Without Fear?

I don’t have all the answers on this, and as I stated above, this is all new to me as well. But I am learning, to the best of my ability, to just “enjoy the ride.” Life, it seems, is little more than a wild roller-coaster ride and nothing we can do will control the twists and turns of the track, the slow climbs up the hills or the terrifying plummets into the valleys. We may scream. We may cry. We may even throw up.

But after a couple time around the track, you begin to just enjoy it. Throw up your hands and laugh every time your stomach jumps into your chest.

How can we learn to do this? Because we know a few things:

God is the builder of this roller coaster called life. No matter what, we won’t fall off the track.
God loves us, our children, and our spouses MORE than we ever can.
Jesus is riding in the seat next to us, and He’s hootin’ and hollerin’ with hands raised to the sky.

Based on these three things, we can KNOW that God will guide us and take care of us, and He will do the same for our children as well. Our life (and theirs) may not look the way we wanted or last as long as we think it should, but trying to control life or even trying to control our sense of control only causes us to lose all the enjoyment of life with God.

So don’t simply try to stop controlling people. Also stop trying to control your sense of control. Simply recognize that there is no control, and then sit back and enjoy the ride.

Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior … Fear not, for I am with you (Isaiah 43:1).

100 Top Christian Blogs 2015

Below is a list of the 100 Top Christian Blogs. If you made it onto this list of top Christian blogs, here is a badge you may display on your website:

About this list of the 100 Top Christian Blogs

To make this list of top Christian blogs, I gathered and inspected about 500 Christian blogs and ranked them using a variety of factors. Some of the blogs I inspected are listed below the list of the 100 Top Christians blogs.

I will update this list occasionally, so if you want your blog to be considered for future ranking, and your blog is not listed below the list of 100 Top Christian blogs, please include a link to your blog in the comment section. Thanks!

Oh, and do I need to say it?

I guess so…. sigh…

Disclaimer: I do not necessarily endorse all the views or perspectives of the bloggers on this list. The list contains many Christian bloggers who write from theological perspectives with which I have some disagreement.

Like who? (Let’s see who I can offend…) Calvinists, Charismatics, Conservative Baptists, and Catholics, just to name a few. Remember, I, Jeremy Myers, am the ONLY correct blogger in the world. (I’m KIDDING!)

Anyway, if someone is on the list of Top Christian blogs and you think they are a heretic, don’t burn me for it! Go be a troll on their site… (I’m kidding again!)

How I Created the List of 100 Top Christian Blogs

Below is an explanation of how I went about ranking these 100 Top Christian Blogs.

First, I gathered the list of Christian blogs using these sites:

Second, I removed all “Community Blogs” which had multiple authors. This caused all blogs from Patheos, the Gospel Coalition, and other similar blogs to be dropped from the list. The reason I did this twofold. Many of these community blogs are not accurately ranked by Alexa, Compete, and Quantcast, which are three of the ranking factors I used (see below). But more than this, I wanted this list to honor the individual blogger who started his or her blog from scratch, and has labored away at it for years, slowly building an audience and faithfully writing quality posts which get read and shared. Those huge mega community blogs often overshadow the quality writing and hard work of individual bloggers. So if a blogger was writing on a community blog, I kept them off my list.

Finally, once I had my list of individual bloggers, I ranked them using a variety of factors. These factors include:

Traffic Rank on Alexa
Traffic Rank on Compete
Traffic Rank on Quantcast
Back link Count (shows people are linking to your content)
Pages Indexed by Google (shows that the blogger is writing a lot)
A variety of other traffic and social signals

The ranking number in the list below is a compilation of these ranking signals. The lower the number, the better the blog ranks.

How to get on this list of Top Christian Blogs

If you are not on this list and you want to work toward getting on it, or if you are on it and want to know what you can do to rise in the ranks of these top Christian blogs, here are six recommendations:

Hone your blogging skills by watching my free Blogging Tutorial Videos
Add the Alexa Traffic Rank Extension to your preferred web browser.
Register your site at Quantcast for tracking.
Join Synchroblogs, blog chains, and leave comments on other blogs.
Get a WordPress plugin like Social Network Auto Poster to help your posts get listed on social sites like Twitter, Facebook, Google+, and others.
Write, write, write, and write some more!

Here then, are the 100 Top Christian Blogs

Do you want to start a blog, but don’t know where to begin?

Do you have a blog already, but are having trouble gaining readers or keeping it going?

Do you have a message or idea God has laid on your heart that you want to share with others?

Do you have a book or product you want to tell others about through a blog?

Let me help.

You Too Can Become a Blogging Author

While I am not a full-time professional blogger, this blog is one of the top Christian blogs in the world (depending on who’s doing the ranking). I don’t say this to brag, but just to say that when it comes to blogging, I have learned a few things about how to blog. I have learned some tips and tricks about blogging that are important for others bloggers to learn.

Furthermore, for several years now, I have been helping scores of people just like yourself set up blogs so they can write what God has laid on their minds and share their ideas with others.

And guess what? I want to help you out as well, and I just created 15 blogging tutorial videos to help you become a blogging author.

But here’s the big question:

How much does cost?

It’s FREE.

I know, I know.

People say that if you give stuff away for free, people won’t value it.

Maybe that’s true.

Maybe I should be charging $97 for this training, or maybe $997. I certainly spent enough time on these videos to make them worth this much. There are currently 15 videos in my “Start Blogging Series” and these 15 blogging tutorial videos took me hundreds of hours to complete. I could, with a good conscience, charge a couple hundred dollars for this blogging training series.

But you know what? I love to see other people learn to set up blogs and write about the message God has laid on their hearts.

In the past, I have been helping people do this one at a time. But recently, more and more people have been asking for my help, and I simply don’t have the time to help everybody any longer.

So I made these blogging tutorial videos, and I am making them available to you for free.
