An Interview w/ Chris Lizotte on John Wimber
Check out this interview I did with Chris Lizotte, one of my favorite worship leaders! We discuss his relationship with John Wimber, his music, and the super secret tape of his last recording of John Wimber’s music! Luke GeratyLuke is a pastor-theologian living...
Worship at the Samaritan Well
Because we believe that worship is an environment in which we experience God, worship is a priority in the Vineyard. From the very beginning of our history, which traces back to the late 1970’s, worship has been important in our movement. For example, Lester...
Connecting Theology to Worship & Discipleship
My relationship with the Vineyard has, at times, been somewhat complex. I’ve found that this is common for other people in the Vineyard I came into the Vineyard as a kid when my parents started attending one in Denver, CO. I’ve been basically hanging around ever...The “Signs & Wonders” Point to Jesus: “More, Lord!”

Powerful reminder about our need to be careful with our words.
I wasn’t fearful of my abortions until I became a Xian in 1990. That’s when I heard it was the “unforgivable sin.” That’s when I heard ladies in Bible study say, “God will not bless those with babies who’ve once aborted. They won’t deserve them.” +
