    How to spot and deal with troublemakers in the Church

    (Acts 20:17-30) "shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock." It was not unintentional that God chose to use the illustration of Shepherd, Sheep, and wolves, to speak of the church. It is in fact a very accurate portrayal of life in the church. The Lord speaks of Himself as ...read more

    In our culture where the influence of the church is diminishing, why should we BE the church? The answer is found in the identity of Jesus and the promises he makes about the Kingdom he is establishing (the church).

    Why the Church I want to share some staggering statistics about church. Since the year 2000, more than 4000 churches in America have closed the doors to their buildings each year. That's more than 40,000 churches. At the turn of the 1900’s there were 27 churches to every 10,000 people. ...read more

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
