  • The Major Dynamics Of Church Life Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 15, 2021
     | 2,070 views

    Our personal histories, church history, our culture and experiences all color our view as to what church is about. We need to recalibrate and correct our assumptions by returning to the Scriptures.

    The Major Dynamics of Church Life (Romans 15:1-13) NOTE: If I could do it over again, I would make three sermons from this text. All three points could have used more elaboration than I gave them. In the first point, I could have demonstrated further that the New Testament purpose for church ...read more

  • Churchill Or Church, Ill?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 29, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,048 views

    As Winston Churchill rallied the British people, so Paul rallies Christians by urging us to review our motivations and to present something solid and not merely entertaining. Such a church will prevail and thrive.

    On the fifth of June, 1940, not even a month after he became prime minister, Winston Churchill spoke to the British people to encourage them of their desperate situation. Bear in mind that in September of the previous year the Nazis had invaded Poland, with no effective resistance. Thereafter, ...read more

They were plagued with a myriad of problems in the church including: divisions, arrogance, sexual immorality, incest, litigation, doctrinal error, abuse of the Lord’s ...read more
