Words that are swirling around in my mind right now

Posted on Friday 11 July 2008 by Greg @ 6:48 am
Filed under: Rants

“Teenagers”…I love teenagers, love them. I love the fact that God has given me the privilege of unleashing these change agents for ultimate activism, the salvation of the soul. Teens don’t know the rules of engagement when it comes to evangelism and even if they did they’d break them. Maybe that’s why I love the […]

A whole lot of shaking going on

Posted on Tuesday 8 July 2008 by Greg @ 7:12 am
Filed under: Rants

I love Acts 4:31. Luke writes these words about a prayer service gone viral in this powerful passage,
“After they prayed the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.”
There is a nice and neat three point outline in this short, […]

Headline News…Greg Stier exposed!

Posted on Friday 4 July 2008 by Greg @ 9:27 am
Filed under: Rants

Westword, a popular left leaning newspaper along the frontrange of Colorado, did a headline news story on me and Dare 2 Share that came out this week. To be honest I was kind of freaked out in the weeks leading up to the story. I was nervous that maybe the article would paint a […]

Off to Salt Lake City

Posted on Tuesday 1 July 2008 by Greg @ 10:33 am
Filed under: Rants

Please pray for me as I head off to Salt Lake for the National Evangelical Free Church Student Conference. I went to this as an attendee back when I was dating my wife and thought to myself, “Self, I’d like to speak at this someday.” It’s hard to believe that twentysomething years later that I’m […]

Heaven, Hell and Double Dares at Creationfest

Posted on Saturday 28 June 2008 by Greg @ 8:13 am
Filed under: Rants

Okay I made it back last night from Shirleysburg, PA (yes, out in the middle of nowhere) from Creationfest. It was awesome. Thursday morning I preached on “Heaven, Hell and everything in between”, a sermon that was based on Daniel 12:2-4 that says,
“Multitudes who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake: some […]

I’m an idiot

Posted on Monday 23 June 2008 by Greg @ 12:34 pm
Filed under: Rants

Okay, so you know how I wrote in my last blog about my busy two weeks coming up? My nephew’s wedding in Des Moines scrunched between two major ministry trips.
But then my wife got the wedding invitation yesterday and read it. And re-read it. Then she re-re read it one last time.
I was on the […]

Jeremy’s first solo witnessing experience

Posted on Thursday 19 June 2008 by Greg @ 7:22 am
Filed under: Rants

So last week I’m up in Estes Park with my family at a time share that my in-laws own. Jeremy comes running inside breathless and yells, “Daddy, your website is dare2share.org right?”
“What are you talking about Jeremy?” I asked him, wondering what in the world was going on.
“I need the website daddy. I’m telling a […]

Questioning verses Doubting

Posted on Sunday 15 June 2008 by Greg @ 9:12 am
Filed under: Rants

Is there a difference between questioning and doubting? I think so. For instance in the Psalms there are many questions that plague David about how and why God does certain things. From “why do the heathen prosper” to “why, O Lord, to you stand far off?” to “how long, O, Lord?” David is full of […]

The “D” Word (or the longest post of my life)

Posted on Wednesday 11 June 2008 by Greg @ 3:21 pm
Filed under: Rants

*This is a reprint of an article I wrote three years ago. I think it still has big relevance today, especially today. What do you think?
Utter it in some churches and you’ll be damned (no, “damn” is not the word.) This is a word that causes many pastors, Sunday school teachers and deacons to cringe […]
