    In a culture where tolerance is the highest virtue and where sincere belief is the only thing important to faith, are Christians too exclusive in believing that Jesus is the only way to eternal life? What does that salvation look like?

    Introduction I have a confession I need to make. I have owned my cell phone for a little more than a year now. In that time, I have lost my charging cord five times. Now don’t blame me. I think it’s possible that charging a phone soon causes the cord to fade into the netherworld ...read more

    God has given the church what she needs. The diversities of talents and gifts are intentional. When everyone serves, the Body of Christ is built up and grows, until we become mature in Christ.

    We are the church. We are the Body of Christ. • By now, I believe you do know that. The church is not a building. It is not even the activities that make the church. It is the people. • You and I form the church. It is not an organization, although it is organized. It is an ...read more

    If we want a growing church that builds itself up in love, then we must accept our spiritual gifts, develop them and use them wherever and whenever we can.
