    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 11, 2023
     | 1,204 views

    A great imagery is that of the Church being a Building, a spiritual house for God. The most vital part of the construction is the CORNERSTONE. We look at Christ the Cornerstone and the laying of the foundation of the Church. We are the continuing living stones.

    Who is the church for? Believers or unbelievers? Or to use more contemporary terms - churched or unchurched. Listen today as Pastor Steve addresses who is the church in the midst of the seeker-sensitive movement.

    Recently I was invited to attend a church planters conference in Lake Yale. At that conference I was exposed to various teaching and methods for reaching the unchurched. As I sat there and listened and took notes, I couldn’t help to think how we have somehow missed it when it comes to the purpose ...read more

    God's Guidance And Fasting

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Aug 14, 2013
     | 5,163 views

    How does the church serve God and seek His will? How do we hear His voice for our present day needs? Certainly scripture is the primary tool to know God's will, but how we apply it takes wisdom and Spirit led help. How do we discover those?

    The Church in Antioch – the first place where the disciples were called Christians – was a team building church. Earlier in Acts 11 we hear of how this church began and how the gospel began to spread outside the borders of Israel into the Gentile world as certain brave souls began ...read more
