    The New Church

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Feb 8, 2022
     | 2,600 views

    The church is an organization that will have a similar life cycle as any living person. Is it possible that some churches need to die so new church's are born? Is your church fulfilling the spiritual needs of its membership.

    The New Church Mark 13:28-32 Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz 28 “Now learn the parable from the fig tree: when its branch has already become tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near. 29 “Even so, you too, when you see these things happening, recognize that He is near, right at ...read more

    When We Are Living Is How We Are Living

     | 3,028 views

    How we live, as a church and as individuals, is determined mostly by when are living. This may sound a little confusing, but I will explain. We look at the Israelites in this passage and we see them complaining - not satisfied with the way things are,

    INTRODUCTION: We, as a church, are at a new phase of our ministry. We NEED to go to the NEXT phase of ministry. We NEED to reach out to the community, love on them, and show them the love of Christ. We need to move in God’s Vision for the church. How we live, as a church and as individuals, is ...read more

    This is a sermon that I have preached successfully about 40 times in the USA. IT has a very powerful ending and is richly illustrated with stories from Africa where I have lived and served as a pastor for 15 years.

     | 5,471 views

    How can we love each other well? How do we not only tolerate diversity, but celebrate it? How do we not only celebrate it, but pray for more of it – much more than we currently see in our congregation? The answer is in God's word ...

    My wife Kristen and I often watch a sitcom on Netflix at the end of a long day. I like Cheers; Kristen likes The Andy Griffith Show. So we compromise on one or the other.

    The Complacent Church Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Jan 21, 2008
    based on 97 ratings
     | 43,683 views

    The Laodicean Church had become complacent & apatetic about the cause of Christ because its members were involved in the worldly activities of the affluent society in which they lived. Jesus tells them that He would not accept their luke-warm attitude.

    Revelation 3: 14-22 THE COMPLACENT CHURCH [Matthew 2:19-34] The letters to the seven churches are God’s X-rays, given so that we might examine our own lives and ministries. Judgment is going to come to this world, but it first begins at the ...read more

    The Church Of Tolerance

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 9, 2006
    based on 30 ratings
     | 7,876 views

    In our society today, tolerance is considered a virtue. But our definition of it has changed - and accepting and even applauding any and every practice will weaken and pollute our lives. Learn how to safeguard your church and your life from compromise.

    When I read verses 18-29 I picture a church in turmoil - a good church with good people that has been infiltrated with those who would exploit weakness and draw off believers into immorality. The good people stand by and watch - and mourn. The church in Thyatira was small - and sometimes in a small ...read more

    What is your purpose in life? Is it the same for every believer. Join Pastor Steve as he examines the evangelism ministry of the Thessalonian church.

    INTRODUCTION Today we are looking at 1 Thessalonians 1, verses 8-10 in what I believe to be the purpose of every believer in Jesus Christ. Many times Christians fumble around misunderstanding their purpose but as we will see in this text — we have one purpose. Some Christians believe that our ...read more

    A Christian response to fathers being excluded from their children’s lives.

    Today is fathers’ day. While I would prefer it was celebrated on the Feast of St. Joseph, the patron saint of fathers, I am grateful Amanda and Maria are making today memorable for me.

     | 2,985 views

    Many believe that we live in the Laodicean Church age. This could be true.

    WHY DO MANY BELIEVE THIS COULD BE THAT CHURCH AGE? When you read Rev. 3:15-19, you can easily see why many think this is the age in which we live. For example, look at some of the things we see about this Laodicean church age. First, the Word of God reveals- (A) WHAT GOD THINKS ABOUT ...read more

    In a world where "sticks and stones" can hurt and tear people down, we are called to be "living stones," builting up one another with Chtist’s own love.

    The Church…Built on a Rock “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” This refrain has been used by many a generation of children to ward off the attacks of teasing peers. The image of children throwing rocks at one another has taken on new meaning of late, as our news ...read more
