I knew it was only a matter of time until this issue hit on a much larger scene then it has until now. I just never knew it would come through such a high-profile organization as CAM.
Most people who struggle with their Anabaptist upbringing aren’t actually struggling with Anabaptism. They’re struggling with their church’s expression of Anabaptism. Here are seven more positives I love about the Anabaptist tradition that are not as clearly a part of other church traditions:
The main thing people tell me is that I put to words what they feel. I’m grateful people are finding voice for their unspoken questions about church and faith. But I’ve noticed an increase of people leaving the values of their conservative Anabaptist tradition. Here’s the introduction of a letter to my generation where I wrestle through the current shifting in values.
A few weeks ago, I sat down with my aunt over Skype and we talked about race, black history, what it’s like growing up black, whether or not couples should have inter-racial adoptions, and much, much more! I shared the full interview with my blog members, but wanted to give you all a taste of what we discussed as well.
Actually, I believe every race has advantage when that race is most dominant. It’s a reality that just kind of is, and not one we need to feel guilty about. However, I believe we must be able to identify it so we know the dynamics at play when we’re seeking racial reconciliation and integration.

As a married person, dating person, or single person, Valentine’s Day can help each of us remember the love we all long for. We all want a place where we can belong. We want a place where we are cherished and valued, respected and admired.

When you have friends or family making drastic changes and you feel panic or want to change with them, before doing or saying anything, remember that you aren’t saved by your right theology or lifestyle—you are saved by the grace of Christ. You aren’t even saved by your belief in being saved by grace—you are saved by the grace of Christ.
It’s sad whenever we are caught in the middle of conflict. I’m not entirely sure I always know what to do. But here are a few things I’ve learned through an especially difficult situation my wife and I experienced a few years ago.
Author Asher Witmer knows what it’s like to want freedom from sexual sin only to continually fail. We’re often told we need more personal discipline, that we need to think godly things instead of fleshly things.
What if I told you that discipline won’t solve your problem with lust?
Our male sexuality is given by God for advancing beauty and goodness. But somewhere along the line it becomes something that causes devastation and guilt. The good news is we don’t have to live with guilt. In Live Free, Asher Witmer shows us how we can find freedom from sexual sin, live with nothing to hide, and be able to fight for others.
