    Contributed by Kelly Mitchell on Oct 7, 2012
     | 7,247 views

    Through Ezekiel the Prophet, God provides a certain destiny and purpose of the modern Christian church and most of us will probably be surprised to hear it.

    In Alice in Wonderland, when Alice comes to a junction in the road that leads in different directions, she asks the Cheshire Cat, "Cheshire-Puss...would you tell me please, which way I ought to go from here?"

    Sardis: Confessions Of A Dying Church Series

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Apr 8, 2013
     | 7,444 views

    This is the sixth message in this series that looks at the letters to the seven churches in the book of Revelation. This message examines the letter to the church at Sardis and how they were spiritually dead and didn't know it.

    As depressing as it might be the opening passage of this letter sounds more like an obituary. The body of believers in Sardis is dead….well almost. Only faint life signs of a faithful remnant remain. For the majority there it was too late, their faith had already flat lined. What begins ...read more

    Every Christian has a gift - and the Church needs all these gifts if it is going to function

    Sermon: The Church is not a “one man show” As I was thinking about the sermon for today, I was struck by the thought that the Church is not a “one man show” God calls us to be a community – and the Church has no passengers. As our Bishops often remind us – our ...read more

    What Should The Church Be In 2013?

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Feb 16, 2013
    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,059 views

    Simply put a church is a local called-out Body of Christ that has united together as the Family of God to worship and to obey His commands. The bottom line is the church is you and I. The question is, therefore, “What should we be in 2013?”

    What Should the Church Be in 2013? Ephesians 5:25b-27 Before answering the question, “What should the church be in 2013”, it would do us good to define what we mean by the term “the church”. Some would define church as a denomination – the Roman Catholic Church, the Lutheran Church, the Nazarene ...read more

    There is a direct correlation between the effectiveness of our mission and how we treat each other. We must be the church before we can build the church. We must care for one another before we can hope to reach this community and county for Christ

    Let us remember that as the church, God has put us in charge of something extremely important. God has put us in charge of witnessing for Christ in all places and at all times.

I am not speaking about the false doctrines and sects; I am speaking about the confusion that there is reference the purpose of the church. I say this because when we ask a ...read more
