    based on 29 ratings
     | 7,962 views

    This message looks at the problem in Acts 11:1-18 of those in the early church focusing on the wrong aspects of what took place there.

    Sometimes we as Christians can get all bent out of shape over the smallest, most insignificant things. You might think that it has something to do with today’s “drive thru” culture but you would be wrong. In fact, today we will see that it goes all the way back to the early Church. That is why I ...read more

     | 6,468 views

    The purpose of the church is to become: 1. A Faith-centered community. 2. A God-centered community 3. A World-centered community.

    As I read Erwin McManus’ book on the church entitled An Unstoppable Force, I have to say I was hit hard by a statement near the beginning, where he said: “The indictment that we must receive is that the Christian faith as we express it is no longer seen as a viable spiritual option. Masses gave ...read more
