    Let’s look at the early church to find some great expectations for our church.

    Great Expectations for God’s Church Acts 15:32-41 Sermon by Rick Crandall McClendon Baptist Church - June 20, 2007 “Expect great things from God. Attempt great things for God.” You’ve probably heard that quote before. It’s one of my favorites. Mary cross-stitched it for me years ago, and it’s ...read more

    Christians disagree about almost everything. And when we disagree, we usually start a new church.

    When Christians Disagree Acts 15:36-41 Christians disagree about almost everything. And when we disagree, we usually start a new church. Which reminds me of a story I heard a few years ago.

    Defining The Gospel

    We know the word gospel means good news. Is the good news that Jesus made some sort of down payment for the salvation of sinners, or did He pay it all? That’s the very question that had to be answered in the first century church of Antioch, and that’s t

    The word “gospel” means good news. We know the heart of the gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ, but what exactly is the good news about that? Is it that Jesus did what He did as sort of a down payment, and then we have to keep up the installments of our salvation by doing ...read more

    Extending Grace To Others Series

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Jan 5, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,360 views

    We are an avenue of Gods grace to other Christians, even the ones who disappoint or hurt us.

    This story quite honestly is a troubling one to me. Can I say that? Is it okay for me to say that? The reason it troubles me is because up until this point in the book of Acts, when the church had a disagreement (and they had some very significant ones), they worked through them and came to a ...read more

    This message continues in my expository series through the book of Acts.

    We have now reached the very center of the book of Acts, not only in the obvious sense that with 28 chapters, we are halfway through, but also in the sense that this is the turning-point chapter of the book.

    Sometimes opinions divide us so strongly that we have no choice but to separate company.

    Separating Company (Acts 15:36-40) 1. Sometimes you hear people marveling, "Why do churches nowadays have so many conflicts?" 2.
