Smoking to the Glory of God
What makes something a Spiritual Discipline? Can we restrict spiritual practices to just bible study and prayer, or can everything be a spiritual practice?
I've written a blog post in response to that question at Deep Church that sits within the kind of questions we'll be asking in the GML D.Min, you can read it here:

Welcome & Orientation
Welcome to the first site for the learning community centred around the Global Missional Leadership Doctor of Ministry. (You can read an overview of the GML D.Min and our hopes for it here).
But you don't have to be a student on the DMin program to take part with us. In fact we are hoping that this program will resource a much wider learning community, centred around the theme of the program, on missional leadership for reflective practitioners.
So if you want to join us at the face to face times in the countries that we will be visiting, read along with us, take part in discussions, and learn and share with us, you are very welcome.
Here are some suggestions for orientation with the site.
Photos & Videos: Take a look at these, these show the places we will meet in Europe, Africa & Asia for our face to face times with students, and people in those countries who will be part of our learning community.

Deep Church
How do you move from renewal to being a church movement?
So with my post yesterday, that gave a summary of Caleb Maskells’ call to the association of vineyard churches, to understand it’s future as one moving from renewal of church into being a movement of disciple making churches, what are the immediate questions and responses to that, that I have? What do you have? 1. [...]Vineyard Churches: 4 factors that we need to face?
Over the last week, we have had a lively discussion here with the post ‘is there any move left in the movement’, prompted by my reflections on a talk by Caleb Maskell. In that post I promised some follow up, one of which was to review Caleb’s analysis of the vineyard movement , and future possibilities [...]Deep Church moving location
Back in mid january I mooted the idea of moving my blogging from here back to www.jasonclark.ws. Thanks for all your comments and feedback/suggestions. I’ve decided to make that move, and this will take place later this month. Reasons I’ve landed on are: 1. Focus: I want to blog about more than Deep Church [...]Brian McLaren: Denominations do invaluable things
With the post and discussion about what the future of the Vineyard Church movement might hold, these resources from Faith & Leadership on the future of denominations might prove useful. In particular I found Brian McLaren’s contribution both supportive of what denominations can do, as well visionary with regards to challenges, changes and possibilities.Steve Lewis' travelog: Exploring missional movments around the world
Globalizing Pop Christianity
Setting out on my global journey, one of the things I fully expected to see a lot of was USAmerican/Western influences in the churches and Christian communities I was visiting. So it came as no surprise to me that Purpose Driven this, and Willow Creek that have been pretty visible in several places, as have been the worship songs (whether in English, or translated). I’ve been to a church services with a live worship band, but the pastor’s sermon on a screen – a.k.a. video venue. I’ve seen an African church website advertising it’s latest sermon series that riffs on the U.S. television show “Extreme Home Makeover.” Even some of the voices from the emerging church are pretty well known around the world. In my opinion, this is one of the things that may most hinder truly missional expressions of church in the years ahead. While it is true that the [...]Update on George Fox Seminary’s New D.Min.
I’ve blogged and tweeted several times in the past about a new Doctor of Ministry program that George Fox Evangelical Seminary is getting ready to launch, and my involvement in it. I’m still excited about that, but there has been an adjustment recently. We were hoping to get things off the ground for the inaugural cohort of the Global Missional Leadership DMin this month in Nairobi, Kenya. Unfortunately, we weren’t quite able to make some important milestone goals for that to happen, and we’ve pushed back the launch date to September of this year – and the first student meetup will now be in London. We’ll still be going to Nairobi for a cohort meeting, it’ll just be later on in the program. While it’s a little disappointing to push back the start date, I think it’s a good thing – it’ll give us the opportunity to add more students to [...]A Community-Shaped Theology
I’ve just spent the past couple of days meeting and learning from some of the best theologians I’ve ever met. Rather than hearing their grand theories and $10 theological phrases, though, I have witnessed their theology in action. As I mentioned in a previous post, while in the Dominican Republic, I’m spending time with several different people that work with la Red Del Camino network. This is a group of churches and other ministries that have been working in Latin America and the Caribbean for a number of years now – some for 15 or more. They practice a dynamic Kingdom theology that expresses the present reality of the Way of God, rather than huddling up in their buildings and homes, waiting around for Jesus to come back. For example, a church in the colonial area of Santo Domingo – just a short walk from the [...]The Questions of Caribbean Theology
Within just a couple of hours of being in Puerto Rico, I had the opportunity to sit with Professor Agustina Luvis in her office at the Seminario Evangelico de Puerto Rico. Dr. Luvis teaches a broad range of courses, including Systematic Theology, courses on Pentecostalism, Feminist Theology, and Caribbean Theology. I learned a lot in my brief time with her, and left with a lot more questions than I had gone into our meeting with – which is usually a very good sign. I asked her about some of the distinctive elements between Caribbean Theology and other Latin American theologies. She has written an article about this in the Global Dictionary of Theology. She told me that in Caribbean Theology, there is a stronger focus on the impacts of colonialism than in other Latin American theologies. When she teaches her class on this topic, she helps her students methodically deconstruct the [...]About
