     | 1,773 views

    Stop building churches where there is already a good work in place! No need for fifteen churches of like faith within twenty miles of each other. We are wasting God's gifts and manpower and giving reason for the enemies of God to blaspheme.

You cannot have multiplication until we cease division that comes from addition of fleshly efforts that subtracts from the testimony of the Lord causing the wrong answer to the ...read more

     | 4,801 views

    What is church in the business of doing? Are we suppose to grow? Whose fault is it if we don't? I hope to answer some of these questions for us.

    I’m sure most of us can recall great stirring sermons that have helped and motivated us on the subject of church growth. There are many aspects to growth, such as soul winning, being a good witness for Christ. If a church is going to grow it also needs a healthy membership that will follow the ...read more

    Funeral sermon for Alfred Bailey, long-term chair of the church Building and Grounds Committee, civic activist, and Martin Luther King Memorial founder. His unfinished tasks and his missed appointments are completed by a God who gave him many assignments

    A man was reading his newspaper early one morning at the breakfast table. His wife came over to him, gave him a hug, smiled, and said, “I bet you don’t know what today is, do you?”

That must be it.” So after he got to work he called the florist and had a bouquet of white roses sent to his wife. ...read more

  • The Inherited Church Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 16, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,922 views

    To accomplish the task of evangelising our world, we must work as though our congregation was new. New churches have a vibrancy that can be lost as we grow older. In time, if we don't take care, we will have an "inherited church" rather than a vibrant, living congregation.
