  • Breath Of God Or Copd?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 4, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,406 views

    I believe the modern church is suffering from spiritual COPD; we’re not getting the Breath of life from God often enough to animate us, transform us, heal & renew us, and help us overcome. God's Breath is our source of life, gives us purpose, & power.

    Man’s view of the church is often very different from the one Jesus demonstrated and Paul described.

    I can stand anywhere in my back yard and see my church. It sits rather majestically at the apex of our little town. Its stained glass windows chronicle its founders. Inside, a huge chandelier hovers over our pew. I don’t know who appointed us to sit in that particular pew, but it must have been ...read more

  • The Church’s Context Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 23, 2010
     | 7,904 views

    When times are tough, pray in faith, because you are fogiven. Persevere with hope, because God is faithful. And provoke one another to love, because Jesus is coming. These core values of faith, hope, and love will keep the church on track.

    Not too long ago, a real estate listing in Dallas had the simple headline: “Converted Church.” In other words, what had once been a church facility is now somebody’s house.

    The church grows when we devote ourselves to living out the truth of God’s Word, to sharing our lives together in genuine fellowship, and to joyful worship.

     | 4,999 views

    As we celebrate the Feast of Pentecost we appreciate the ministry of the Holy Spirit, without Whose presence in it, this church, every church, would only be a gathering of people.

    SERMON – Every church a Pentecostal church Today is Pentecost, which some people call Whitsun or White Sunday, because priests and ministers used to wear white robes to symbolise the Holy Spirit who came down on Jesus in the form of a dove immediately after he had been baptized by Jordan in ...read more

  • Let The Church Be The Church

    Contributed by Chris Cuthbertson on Jun 6, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,206 views

    God wants His church to grow and He commissioned us to evangelize, and if the church is doing its job it should grow, but numerical growth in itself is not evidence that God is blessing. It’s important to remember that the goal is to try to restore the church of the 1st century in its principles.

    Let the Church Be the Church Acts 2: 36 – 47 A newspaper reporter was doing a story on growing churches, and in preparation for that story he interviewed a number of preachers.
