This Is Church Not Theatre

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jul 22, 2008

The Corinthians had made the mistake of approaching worship like a smorgasbord. They were taking what they thought was the best and walking by what they really needed on their plates.

The "Normal" Church

Contributed by Billy Kryger on Oct 20, 2003

"Normal" means "conforming to a standard". The Standard for our churches ought to be the Lord Jesus Christ. The church at Jerusalem gives us an excellent blueprint for how a church ought to be.

When we compare the church in the book of Acts with our churches today, we fall so far short of God’s standard. ...read more
