 <title>Thinking about Faith</title>
 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/forums/faith/thinking_about_faith</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;I just read this impressive criticism of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.challies.com/archives/book-reviews/become-a-better-you-by-joel-osteen.php&quot;&gt;Joel Osteen&amp;#8217;s latest book&lt;/a&gt;. This is not meant as a forum for bashing our favorite &amp;#8220;target&amp;#8221;; I chose Osteen because he is a famous public figure for Christianity. What I want to know is, how do we as a church determine what is acceptable teaching and what is unacceptable?&lt;/p&gt;

 <link>http://www.talkinchurch.com/forums/journey/meaningful_messages_series_ideas</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Unconference topic: How can we make messages meaningful?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Testimonies are key&lt;br /&gt;
-Allow us to get real &amp;amp; share who is struggling / has struggled with different things, brings different voices into the experience&lt;br /&gt;
-Un-sermon series featuring prayer requests, testimonies, music only, etc.&lt;br /&gt;
-Backed up with someone who ties things together / teaches&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How to integrate Bible in messages?&lt;br /&gt;
-Using Bible verses to show you where you can turn for comfort / answers for certain issues, addressing felt needs.&lt;/p&gt;
