Let The Church Be The Church

Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Jun 6, 2024

God wants His church to grow and He commissioned us to evangelize, and if the church is doing its job it should grow, but numerical growth in itself is not evidence that God is blessing. It’s important to remember that the goal is to try to restore the church of the 1st century in its principles.

I want to share the questions asked of these preachers and then give you my answers to them. One of the questions he ...read more

When The Fire Goes Out

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025

Apathy melts when wounded believers encounter the gentle, pursuing love of Jesus—and a church that mirrors His compassion becomes a place where hearts burn again.

I want to talk to you this morning about something that sits quietly in the corners of our churches. It doesn’t shout. It doesn’t slam doors. It doesn’t usually make the headlines in church board minutes. But it drains the life out of congregations and breaks the heart of Jesus. I want to talk ...read more

Sustained By The Faithfulness Of God

Today we’re going to be in the first 9 verses of 1 Corinthians. While studying these verses, I came across a story that I’d like to share with all of you.
