Río Texas Conference

The Order of Elders

From the Chair

All letters to the order

Who Moves the Rocks

On the parable of the sower — who tends the soil of our lives, and whose rocks we still cling to because familiar feels safer than free.

The Church Doesn't Need Super Pastors

On the exhausting pull toward doing it all, being it all, and giving it all — and why faithfulness isn't the same thing as pleasing everyone.

The Wounds That Remain

On Genesis 22, the silence between Abraham and Isaac afterward, and what it means for the church to tell the truth about the harm it has caused.

Acknowledging Jesus in Strangers

On a free medical clinic, an eight-question community mapping tool, and the daily chance to recognize Christ in people you've just met.
