    The church is failing in its mission to preach and teach the Gospel to every nation, people, and tongue as Jesus commanded, because we are busy preaching feel-good prosperity-based messages.

    And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; ...read more

    God uses our ordinary gifts and daily acts of service to bless others, display His grace, and bring glory to Jesus in everyday life.

    Friends, can we talk about the quiet heroes God sends our way? The ones with flour on their aprons and prayer on their lips; the ones who show up with a casserole, a kind word, a seat at the table. I think of a dear woman I knew—no spotlight, no stage—just a well-worn Bible, a wobbly kitchen chair, ...read more

    This is a study of the Ministries of the Church of Christ in this world. Each congregation needs to examine its work to ensure that it is fulfilling God’s glorious purpose.

Indeed, following His resurrection and ascension, we find His establishing the Church on Pentecost in ACTS 2. Throughout the remainder of the Book of ACTS, we see it "having ...read more
