    Concern over "trends" in ministry need not be scary to us, it’s biblical for methods to change in order to reach the lost.

    The Gripe About Methods, Chorus on Overheads By Pastor Andrew Chan, PBC, Vancouver June 2000 Singing choruses nothing new, but why is this “trend” in most churches to sing form the overhead instead of having a book, i.e. a hymnal? - Ask someone at PBC.

But I remember thinking it was pretty cool that you could take this people, cut out different clothes and hair and stuff for them and make them into anything you wanted ...read more

    Looking at some of the things we can create with our mouths.

    Out of the mouth When is a parable not a parable? That question always comes to my mind when I read today’s passage from Matthew’s Gospel. We are told that Peter said to Jesus “Explain the parable to us”. But it does not matter how many times I read the passage, I cannot find a parable. Instead, I ...read more

    You have probably heard the expression "you are what you eat." A more precise saying is "You are what you speak." The words that come from our mouth yield much greater power than we realize.

    If our actions do not support our words then it would be better if we remain silent, for what we do does speak so loud that the world cannot hear what we say.

    MIXED MESSAGES "Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying: ’These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me, and in vain they worship Me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men."
