    Church should be GOD'S way, not YOUR way.

    You Should Be Committed A husband and his wife arose one Sunday morning and the wife dressed for church.

He ordered premium steak and, in fairness, it was delicious. But he could not help but ask the waiter why the place is called ...read more

    With what God has entrusted to us, are we faithful not only as individuals but as a church toward God. Are we willing to faithfully pursue Him and walk with Him no matter what! God put the church in the world; Satan tries to put the world in the church. Be faithful!

    Opening illustration: I wonder what Christ or even the apostle Paul would say if they were to visit our churches today. What a beehive of activity! Committees, programs, entertainment without end. But worship is often downplayed, services are cut back, prayer meetings are eliminated. Some call ...read more
