Bosko International - Bosko Coffee Club

Been a while but I have stumbled back across the blog spot surface from the land of Twitter. To you that have been regular followers of my blog, I apologize as I have found Twitter a quicker and less stressful way of communicating but I will be frequenting my blog more often than of late.

This week we officially launch "Bosko International". This is a very cool way to get involved in making a difference around the world.

The "Bosko Coffee Club" launches July 22. Honduran high grown coffee can be shipped to you on a monthly basis.

Bosko International is also beginning the "DRIP" revolution. Do Right It Pays!

You will be hearing more about what Bosko is doing to make a difference in the lives of orphans, missionaries and how you can help with "addict recovery".

This is a busy, exciting time for me and my family.

Those of you that will be in Tulsa at PEAK 2010 stop by the Hope Corps booth and find out more.

Join the revolution!

What They See Is What They Get!

We are living in a unique age. We are called to spread the gospel to new generation. Sadly some are pounding the pulpit and railing against what they believe is a generation that is hopeless. I will admit that ministry to this post-modern generation can be frustrating and at the very least challenging, but I do not believe it is hopeless. I would like to go on record and say "This generation can be reached". I know, the "en-vogue" thing for a 41 year old preacher at this point in the post is to attack organized religion and point out all the warts and blemishes of particular church movements and their traditional services. Before you get worried that I am rushing to buy a pottery wheel and candles for my acoustic alchemy worship set, relax, I am not going there! lol... But I do wonder if some of what is being preached is being drowned out by what this generation sees in the lives of Apostolics?

In too many cases what is being said is not being matched by what is being displayed. Remember this is a "visual" generation. This description is not just a statement about video screens and strobe lights added for effect in some kind of optical worship experience. This generation "sees" first, rather than listening. This is one important reason that we must "display" the truth that we preach. People have grown tired of mere words. "Our use of the Bible is analogous to our use of language. We indwell it rather than looking at it from the outside. But for this to happen it is clear that this 'indwelling' must mean being part of the community whose life is shaped by the story which the Bible tells"(Lesslie Newbigin). In other words, what we preach has to be made visible! WHAT THEY 'SEE' IS WHAT THEY 'GET'!

The Christ message must be preached and "lived out"...clearly! Graham Johnston in his book "Preaching To a Post-Modern World" states, "It is essential that the preacher not fall into the trap of being wishy-washy with a watered down message. People who have tired of uncertainty will be seeking straight answers". This generation is swift to recognize whether or not the message matches the life. They are not afraid of our doctrine...if our lives match what we say we believe. I am proposing that the apostolic church is poised to be the recipient of this generation's gaze. Let us recognize the need to "shew forth" this glorious gospel. This generation needs to see a church on fire, filled with the Holy Spirit and excited about what has brought us out of darkness. There is no need to be intimidated about our faith, our doctrine, our separation, our worship or our service to the Father. Square your shoulders, hold your head up, step out and demonstrate God's provision and love. It is the only way that this generation will receive it.

WHAT THEY 'SEE' IS WHAT THEY 'GET'!

David Mireles said...: Great post, I really believe that I as a young person in Public School should not just say that I'm Pentecostal, that I believe in Holiness etc. But to actually just do it, because, I encounter many students who say, that they're Catholic, Muslim, Baptist etc., but do they show it? By the way they brag about how they spent their "fun" and "wild" weekend full of booze and parties, I think not. It sure is interesting to see the responses of my friends when I tell them that I went to a Pentecostal church, spoke in tounges, and shouted, and saw miracles be done.

Carnival Christianity

I have been amazed lately at how quickly people walk away from what has been so dear to them. I have watched men & women walk away almost callously from their families. I have watched as people removed themselves from the friendships that took years to establish in just a few moments. Even sadder is to see people throw truth away under the guise of spiritual freedom. Experts tell us this is part of the "post-modern" mentality. If it is then my heart is broken for the coming generations that will feel the negative effects of such temporal decisions of the present generation.

There seems to be a blurring of reality. This is why the "virtual world" that the internet provides has become so popular. It is reported that social networking has now replaced pornography on the internet as the most used activity. People are creating "pseudo-relationships" with people from the past and with total strangers, people they would never even be interested in talking to in a real-time relationship. This blurring of reality makes the mind "...a switching center for all the networks of influence"(Jean Gaudrillard). This generation is being bombarded by many influences but is failing to maintain strong personal distinctives and the result is a blurring of truth.
Kenneth Gergen states that in the present condition of "decentered self", confusion will reign and "without external standards and without internal standards there is only cynicism, panic and freefall"(The Saturated Self").
When the moorings that have held generations strong are pulled up...long term commitments become a thing of the past. "Instead of long-term commitment, the postmodern self just moves onto the next game, to the next show, to the next relationship"(Middleton and Walsh) "This is the nomadic self, on the road with the carnival"

I am watching spiritual carnival teams start up very often these days. Their well decorated "carny" buses pass me by on their way to yet another empty lot in the seedy part of town. Bright lights, party music, cotton candy sermons (lot of fluff & color but not much nutrition) and a different crowd every night. Nomadic ministry....their christianity is a journey searching and chasing. It seems to be the new cool trend to be "searching" but "finding" is totally out of date.
I guess this is why I see so many "Rolling Stones"....just walking away... They see themselves as pioneers but sadly they just seem to be "wondering nomads" moving from tent to tent.

Jana McVay said...: In response to Brett's statement: In 2 Timothy 2:15, the Bible says, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." Definition of Study:
learning, analysis

I have an AWESOME, INCREDIBLE, WORD-preaching pastor and I love to hear the Word of God preached so powerfully every service. However, it is MY responsibility to study the Word and know what my pastor says is STRAIGHT from the Word. I don't want to "just listen to my pastor". I want to listen to God by way of the Bible and the ministry who gave me a pastor and be assured that I am living right and honoring what God has ordained as the WAY to make heaven my home.
Perhaps you were referring to those who want to misinterpret scripture and twist it to their "own understanding"?; December 7, 2009 at 4:37 PM
Brett said...: Sis. McVay I just listen to my pastor. I think that verse was written to a pastor anyway. My pastor is accountable for my soul and I have to obey him. I trust his wisdom. He reads from the Bible and is trained well to divide the word.; December 7, 2009 at 10:14 PM
Jarron said...: Act 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

It's not wise to just blindly follow your pastor, as spiritual as he may be. Don't missunderstand me, I'm not down-playing the ministry in any way (my father is a pastor). But it would behoove us to listen with readiness, then go home and study it out for ourselves. That's why we all bring our Bible's to church and read along... or we should.

What good does witnessessing do when all you can say in defense of your beliefs is, "my pastor said it's right" or "my pastor said it's in the Bible." Sorry, that just doesn't work. You have to know it for yourself, and that only comes by personal study and memorization... (ps. Bible Quizzing is a good thing for kids to get into.); February 25, 2010 at 9:06 AM

Kids and Disneyland

Have you ever noticed that a child's excitement is contagious? This past weekend I was at a party with several young couples and their small children. All of us adults were talking and laughing and having a good time when 2 little girls came running over to me. They had just returned from Disneyland and they wanted to tell me all about it. In just a few moments we were all caught up in the sweet joy of their description of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. I watched the beaming smiles of the parents as their kids told the tales of the trip to Disney.

This week I have been thinking about the joy that our Heavenly Father must get when we tell others about what He has done for us. The sincerity and openness of those 2 cute kids touched all us that were gathered around. No wonder Jesus said "Suffer the little children to come unto me" and "except you become as a little child...". I experienced firsthand the power of a child's influence...it made me want to drive to Anaheim and take my family to Disneyland!

Lord, I pray for simple child-like faith and sincerity that brings a smile to your face.

Love On Display

Last night was a night I will not soon forget! I saw and felt an incredible heart moving response to the needs of others by the wonderful people that God has allowed me to pastor. I told the story of the the "Good Samaritan" with some supporting scriptures concerning sharing what we have received with those that have need. In a way that I cannot describe the sweet presence of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Our bus ministry director (Jennifer Pelton) had presented the church staff an opportunity to help the 170 children that ride the bus every Sunday. At the conclusion of my message, I presented the opportunity to TRC...I was blown away. People surged to the front to adopt a child from the bus. We all committed to pray, love and give them a gift this year for Christmas, but also to build a relationship with these children.

I could not hold back the tears as I thought about the love that was being displayed last night.

James 1:27

"Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world."

Have Some Fun!

I hope your Thanksgiving was a great one, mine was. Now we are off and running down the last stretch toward Christmas and the New Year. Don't blink you will miss it as time seems to be running fast. During this season why not take advantage of time with your family. Get out of the house and do something fun. Even if it is different than what you normally do, just do something. Get off of that couch....get off of my blog and go have some fun with your kids! As evening was approaching on Thanksgiving I grabbed my son and his cousins and we headed to the school yard down the street for some street ball. We laughed, we argued, we sweated and we scored! But the best part was that we were doing something together.

Go have some fun and love your family!

THANKSGIVING!

Happy Thanksgiving - www.mylesyoung.com

Well it is time for turkey! Can you believe it? This year has flown by (in spite of all the storms of life). Wow, where did time go? For many of us, today is a preparation day (Wed) for the big spread tomorrow. Trips to the grocery store and work in the kitchen. Here at home I am getting ready to make my "Pineapple Cake" and some "strawberry bread" (and what ever else I decide). Tomorrow we will sit down and partake of the bounty that comes from living in this the greatest nation on earth (to quote Michael Medved). I have been privileged to travel around the world and after seeing and going I have come to this one conclusion... WE ARE BLESSED! So while we are partying, laughing and eating let's remember, we could have been born in a place with no hope, no help and no future. Celebrate with family and friends but while the party is going on, tell somebody how thankful to God you are for his favor in your life

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

I am happy and grateful, along with uncountable Israelis, that you are coming to Israel and loving her. (Isaiah 66 10).

I would be very happy to present the strategically important city of Maale Adumim and especially its neighborhood in the news E1 to any and all of your visitors.

Maale Adumim is a place mentioned in the Bible before her nearby bigger sister Jerusalem (Joshua 18), a strategic modern location, a bustling city, and a “flower in the desert” – all in one.

As the English Language Spokesman for Maale Adumim, I clarify to participants the history, importance, and everyday life of this town, with a stunning view from the roof of the Municipality building, a short bus tour of scenic points, and a breathtaking opportunity to pray for Jerusalem and Maale Adumim overlooking the Holy City and the in-the-news E1 neighborhood adjacent to the Mount of Olives. Depending on your time constraints and your interests, your visit can run from 10 to 90 minutes.

Questions and Answers for as long as time will allow

Maale Adumim is just five minutes drive from Jerusalem, on the way to the Dead Sea.

Please see http://root-source.com/discussion-topics/ for further topics I can facilitate.

Please be in touch!

Book of Isaiah - My Personal Devotion

Prophet Isaiah - www.mylesyoung.com

In my personal devotion and Bible study I am studying the book of Isaiah. The deeper I have gotten into this book the more sobering it becomes. The first 3 chapters provide the sad account of Jerusalem's moral and spiritual collapse. I guess what is so sobering is to see so many similar trends taking place all around us. The new issues are really not new at all but God's people have struggled with these things since the days of the Isaiah. I know this is not a fun filled post this morning but my heart is stirred. As I drove through the streets of a city with no apostolic church and prayed for the Lord of the Harvest to anoint us to accomplish His will, I couldn't help but think how much of the harvest is being missed because the laborers can't figure out who they are.

Instead of work be accomplished in the vineyard...there is fighting at the cottage about how the vineyard should kept.

Maybe tomorrow my latte will stir me to joy and excitement, but today this Pastor's heart is heavy with the reality of where so many are headed.

May God help us all!

Alabama, Here I Come!

Eva/Cullman Pentecostals - www.mylesyoung.com

Well, It has been a while since I posted anything on my blog. I am sure you have struggled through in my absence! LOL! To all my friends in Alabama, I am headed your way. I am pumped about being a part of the Dedicatory celebration in Cullman, Alabama. Pastor Greg Wilbanks and the Eva/Cullman Pentecostals have recently completed an incredibly, beautiful new sanctuary and I am privileged to be one of the speakers at the dedication. I look forward to seeing all of you that are able to join us. I am thrilled to be headed to "Bama" (that's big coming from an LSU boy!).

p.s. I am taking my bow, pray I get a "bama-buck"!

Revival in Newport

Newport, North Carolina - www.mylesyoung.com

This weekend I have the extreme privilege of ministering at "The Sanctuary" in Newport, North Carolina. Pastor Ted Erskine and his lovely wife started this church a few years ago and my what a tremendous church this is. Friday night I spoke to all the key leaders and department heads on the subject of "The Consequences of Bad Leadership" and then Saturday morning a spoke to all the worship team as well as service leaders and technical crew about our calling in leading worship. Sunday is going to be a great time in the Holy Ghost as we move toward the Missions Service on Sunday evening. If you are ever in the Newport, Morehead, Havelock area, you owe to yourself to come visit this great church. You will not be disappointed. Thanks to all my friends on the East Coast (I love it over here), you guys are great. There is a great revival on this side of our nation. I am just blessed to be a small part.

God's Goodness

Lake Tahoe - www.mylesyoung.com

I am sitting at starbucks in the beautiful Sierra Mountains with London (my daughter). This is the last week before school for both my kids so we are enjoying some much needed family time. As I look up at the majestic mountains at "Heavenly" to my right and beautiful Lake Tahoe down below, I can't help but think of how blessed I am.

God has blessed me with a wonderful family, a great church and so many great friends and most of all....I have the wonderful gift of the Holy Ghost. London and I drove through the mountains this morning while Boss and Sheila were still in bed.

These are special moments, next week she enters her senior year of High School and Boston starts his freshmen year of college. As He was registering for class my mind went back to what seems like yesterday, to the day my dad took me to the LSU campus to register me for class (gueax tigers). Where has time gone? This life is so fleeting. We are as the "grass that withereth", so while I am here, I want to recognize the moments of blessing that our wonderful God provides. Nothing is much better than sitting here "saved" in Tahoe, drinking a Sugar-free, vanilla, Breve, latte (de-caff) with my Daughter.

SHEPHERDS

Shepherd - www.mylesyoung.com

Harold Bell Wright wrote the great classic "The Shepherd of The Hills" many years ago and what a story it is. This tale of love, mistakes, bitterness, anger and forgiveness has touched so many people through the years. At the center of the story is Dad Howitt...."the shepherd". If you haven't read it, you owe it to yourself to take the time to read it. While revisiting this story recently, my mind went to the role of shepherds in the scripture.

Shepherds are found everywhere in the scripture... I began to think about their significance and what they represent! When one goes down the path of scripture looking for shepherds, one cannot help but notice the sheep. We are the "sheep of His pasture" and we are in need of a shepherd.

The "throw-it-all-away" version of Pentecost doesn't care for shepherds. Oh, they like their blogosphere spiritist , and their "web-celebrity God experts" but an old-fashioned shepherd is not of much value (I don't think goats like shepherds either).

Running with people that do not like shepherds is to associate with quite a list of undesirables. Remember in the OT, where the scripture said that "to the Egyptians ALL shepherds are an abomination"...wow! Think about that a moment!

Do you remember the time that David was about to fight Goliath and Saul wanted him to wear what was "relevant" (lol). Hey, it made sense to Saul....oh, I forgot....he was no longer in proper alignment with God....hmmmm! David said said "I can't wear this stuff" and took it off. Have you ever noticed what David did? The first thing he did was...he picked up his "shepherd's staff". Look again at the old story of David & Goliath...what did Goliath mock? He took one look at this young man coming toward him and said...."Am I a dog to be chased by a staff". Goliath recognized that it was a shepherd coming to confront him. The giants that we are presently confronting are no different than Goliath of old. They still mock the shepherd.

Think on these things while "disposable Pentecost" is mocking the out of touch garb of the shepherd!

PEAK 09 - A Success

Video courtesy of MD Wood

video from e-luminations
Thanks in advanced Bro Jo

PEAK 09 was a smashing success. It is now Tuesday and I am well on my way to recovery. I was totally wiped out when PEAK ended. I would like to say a big thank you to all of you who worked so hard to make it happen. There were so many volunteers who stepped up and "got her done". I want to especially thank Pastor Guy Godwin for all of his help, he did everything from shuttle service, found mechanics, took offerings, loaned pulpits, took care of evangelist. Guy Godwin is a great man. Thanks bro....

All of you who helped lead worship, you were great. Ben Vandiver, as always you did a spectacular job.

I should not begin to name names for fear of forgetting so thank you to everyone.

Bro Pullen, thank you so much for all your help.

Bro Switzer, thank you sir!

Bro Stringfellow, thanks for preaching. You did a great job. "Let's Get It Right This Time"

Bro Morton, what a timely message.

Youth Council, thanks for your work, passion and friendship.

God bless

PS. I am in Branson, (time to recover)

PEAK 09

Hey Everbody, We are only one week from PEAK 09, Tulsa, Oklahoma. This year the convention is being held at Spirit Bank Arena. It is going to be a great time. Our evening evangelist is Jonathan Stringfellow. If you have never heard his ministry then get ready, you are going to be blessed. It all begins next Wednesday (22) at 7:30 pm. This year the theme is "VERTICAL". We are reaching up to the heavens to find the pattern for living on earth. I want to personally invite all of you to come and be a part of this move of God. Let's put on our "garment of Praise" and see if God will show up. When He does....anything can happen!

See ya there!

Lessons from an old Man

Pastor C Myles Young and PaPa King - www.mylesyoung.com

Pastor Young and PaPa King

Last night was one of those nights to remember. I ministered yesterday at Truth Church in Calgary, Alberta Canada singing at the annual Stampede Sunday Concert. Following the event I was invited to the King home where Pastor King gave Ruth's Chris a run for her money from his back porch grill. We laughed and went down memory lane with Mark and Matt. PaPa King (Johnny Kings dad) and Pastor King told stories of I.H. Terry while "Nan", Star and Kelsey were taking care of 'Vinnie'. Moments like that are special but there was one moment that will forever be stamped upon my memory....

Following the meal, I logged onto TRC's website to check in on services at home. Mark and I began to watch Bishop Wilson preach His classic sermon "The Cows". Before long, Pastor King and PaPa King had pulled up a chair and the 4 of us were soon in the flow of the message. As Bishop Wilson began to preach about Samuel's mother being separated from her son because of the will/call of God...the weight of the sermon was almost tangible in the room where we were sitting. I turned to PaPa King and asked "What was it like for you when Johnny and Judy left it all and came up to Canada?"

I will forever remember the look in his tear-filled eyes...he uttered 3 short words..."IT WAS ROUGH"

Oh, the feeling after all these years of an 81 year old father still remembering the burden of a son surrendering to the will of God. PaPa King your eyes and words spoke volumes to me. How proud you must be now to walk into a packed-out church built from the efforts of that Son that cast out into the deep of God's will. How proud you looked as you held your first great grand-child. I watched the smile on your face as you watched your grandson (Mark) minister on the stage that was built by the burden of your Son....

I learned a lot on this trip to Calgary...and it was taught by an old man from Bakersfield.

God bless "PaPa" King!

Sarah, You Are Beautiful! - Nathaniel Urshan III

Beauty in Truth - www.mylesyoung.com

Here I am sitting in a hotel room in Calgary so I'm checking email and responding when I decided to google "apostolic preaching". My search led me to Nathaniel Urshan III preaching at NO LIMITS earlier this year. As I started listening, my hotel was bathed in the sweet presence of God. My heart was pounding in my chest as Pastor Urshan told of Old Testament Sarah and her beauty. He skillfully made the connection to this apostolic message that has been given to us and I was overcome with thankfulness for such a clear message from my dear friend.

In this day of relevancy and emerging trends, the sound of a truly apostolic message is so refreshing. Pastor Urshan thank you for painting the picture so beautifully. Truth is gorgeous. What a timeless, transcendent message from a great man. If you were not there then you owe to yourself to listen to this message.

Sending out blessing to the Nathaniel Urshan family in Ft. Myers, Florida.

Happy 4th

FREEDOM - www.mylesyoung.com

Happy 4th of July to everyone. Thank God for the liberty that we have here in the United States of America. Over the last year over 70 different nations have been represented by visitors to my blog. Many of the visitors have been from countries that do not have the freedom and liberty that we are blessed to have here in the USA. On this 4th of July I am not only saying prayers of thanksgiving but I am also offering up petitions to all of you that are living under oppressive governments. Lets agree together in prayer for the nations that the gospel of Jesus Christ would penetrate the bondage and bring freedom for lost souls. Many of you have come to this blog from Muslim countries. I am praying for you. There is a great revival of Christianity taking place in your part of the world. Keep crying out to God. His name is Jesus Christ. I am reading many new reports of Muslim people who are having dreams and vision of Jesus Christ. Reach out for him, he is as close as the mention of his name.

Repent of your sins, be baptized in water in the name of Jesus Christ and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

You can have eternal life. God loves you unconditionally! You can receive his love now , on this earth.

I am praying for all of you that are trying to find truth. Truth has a name = Jesus.

This is the freedom that goes beyond the boundaries of nations. The bondage of men cannot stifle the freedom of the soul!

Happy 4th of July!
