Why I’ll be at the distributed group leader training

From Local Sites | Online written by Nathan Clark on May 20, 2010

I was involved in several faith groups at Northland before I started working here. Two of those groups were collections of believers who gathered regularly for shared service, training and worship. We read the Bible together, we prayed for one another, and we went about the business of being Jesus’ witnesses. Along the way we fumbled through the best ways to follow God, and as a leader in both groups, I struggled with how to support our less-scripted version of the church. I kept at it because a quick look → MORE...

Intern Crosses Borders, Helps Church Connect With Web Worshipers

From Local Sites | Online | News and Inspiration written by Robert Andrescik, Director of Public Relations on May 13, 2010

Oh, that Google. A few months ago, Meindert Kramer was searching for sermons online from his home in The Netherlands. Included on his playlist were some of America’s most prominent preachers: John Piper, Tim Keller ... and a certain Florida pastor with a penchant for telling stories. Looking over Meindert’s shoulder was his son, Wilbert, age 21. “It was 8 or 9 months ago that my dad came across our website,” Wilbert remembers (note that he says “our” website, even though he lives more than 4,500 miles away). “I had → MORE...

New - Support DJ participants online

From Local Sites | Online | Media and Technology | Media and Technology written by Nathan Clark on May 13, 2010

We’ve made a couple of technically small changes to our website that should offer big improvements. This year we have 300 people going on one of our 30 trips. In previous years the only real way to support someone going on a Distributed Journey was to write a check to Northland and drop it off onsite, or mail it in. But every year we’ve had growing demand for an easy way to make online gifts. So we’ve created a link for everyone going on a distributed journey this year for → MORE...

Spreading the Gospel, bit by bit

From Local Sites | Online | Media and Technology written by Nathan Clark on Mar 25, 2010

Last weekend, you helped launch online church in three different major languages; Russian, Ukrainian and Afrikaans. We recently sent two different teams bearing technology: one to New Life in Kiev, Ukraine; and another to Vredelust in Capetown, South Africa. Each team delivered hardware that Northland uses for online worship to our church partners, so that they could begin offering their services online to seekers and worshipers around the world.
