So Roseau, what do you want to talk about……? Well let me get this started. You see it has been my experience that the majority of our life is guided by and filled with QUESTIONS. I even started this musing with a question. Who, what, when, where, and why, fill in the blank. Five simple words but each can carry so much weight, from the mundane, “Where do I go eat” to the uber-important “who do I marry.” Roseau, let’s talk about a guy known for questions. In the Gospel of John, Jesus talks about preparing a place for us and that where He goes, we...
Greetings everyone! For those of you who may not know me, let me introduce myself. My name is Dave Peterson and I am the pastor of NorthLand Assembly in Badger. I began writing Beyond Brokenness back in 2016 and was a steady contributor here until about 2018. Recently I have been asked by a few folks to bring the column back, so here I am. I am going to jump right into the deep end and share something I have been meditating on for the last few weeks. As we exit June and begin July, I want to talk about something I noticed during PRIDE month....
Pastor Dave Peterson Northland Assembly Church Badger, Mn Recently I have been asked what I mean when I say "Church Re-Imagined." That is a very legitimate question and it can be taken in many different ways. I would like to take this time and try to explain my heart and vision for Church Re-Imagined. First of all Church Re-Imagined is not an indictment of how we used to do things. It is also not an endorsement of one worship style over another. It is definitely not saying to forget church...

This year I was once again asked to speak at the Badger Memorial Day Celebration. Last year due to COVID we had a closed service and my message was shared right here in the newspaper. Even though we had our regular ceremony this year, I still wanted to share some of my message with all of you. In preparation, while doing my devotions, I came across a story that I have read many times before. It is about a battle that most have never heard about. You see before he was king over Israel, David was a commander in the army. He commanded a group of 6...

Greetings!! As we get ready to celebrate Easter, I wanted to take some time and share what has been on my heart for awhile now. What a year it has been. Executive orders, lock-downs, riots, elections, and conspiracies more than enough for the average person to try to understand. I personally have to look back and thank God that I made it through. Few people know this but early on during the first rounds of executive orders, I had a major panic attack right in the middle of one of my sermons. Everything caught up to me all at one time and right... Full story
Easter week is over but I want to share with you some of my message from Easter or as I call it, Resurrection Day. When you ask most people of faith they will surely be able to tell you the basic meaning behind Easter. Jesus was crucified, buried, then resurrected. All of this to take away our sins. I want to share with you a deeper viewpoint. Over the years I have heard hundreds of Good Friday/Easter messages that focus on the seven things said by Jesus while he was on the cross. I want to share with you something new; seven times Jesus bled....
