    What was said to the Church in Laodicea - the seventh of the seven churches - and what it might mean for us today.

    Laodicea was a very, very wealthy city, founded by Antiochus II and named after his wife Laodice. The city was strategically located, where three major roads converged, so it was highly commercial. It was well known for its banking industry, its manufacture of black wool, and a medical school ...read more

    We are called to be a loving body that accepts all people where they stand, however, the example of Thyatira shows that lines must be drawn for the health of that loving body.

    The Church at Laodicea, a church, it seems, with no redeeming qualities. Luke warm, every church was commended for something, except the Laodicean church. Are we like the Laodicean church?

The city was a banking center and so a very wealthy city a. The city was also the site of mineral springs which could only be tolerated if ...read more

    Many people are looking for the perfect church - yet they don’t have a clue where to find it. These three verses from Colossians give us a snapshot of the perfect church - and it might be the church your at.

    The Perfect Church Colossians 3:12-14 In my time in ministry, I have heard more than once the statement, “If you find the perfect church don’t join it because it will no longer be perfect.” I’m not sure, but I have a suspicion that something was being hinted at in that statement. What do you ...read more

    Should there be anything said about politics from the pulpit? I submit that there is a point where church and state come together...

    I am not a politician and have not been called to be a politician. I’m glad that some people do feel a calling to take on those responsibilities, but I’m also glad that it’s not me. I am, however, a preacher of the gospel of Jesus Christ and have a strong calling on my life to preach that gospel. ...read more
