    Why are we in church? punch a clock, tradition, or to spend quality time?

  • Do Not Take Side Series

    Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 13, 2013
     | 6,882 views

    One of the great characteristics of the body of Christ is to care about the burdens and sufferings of one another. However, as we seek to console and encourage friends that have been offended, we may be tempted to take up their offense against another.

This is very unwise and an unscriptural thing to do, considering that your friend may be the cause of his own/her offense, or trying to drag you out of faith. His/her hurt feelings may ...read more
