    We can learn what kind of church Jesus wants us to be by looking at the distinctive identifying marks of the church in Jerusalem.

    THE CHURCH IN JERUSALEM Acts 6:7 INTRO. The verse we have just read is an excellent description of the church in Jerusalem. That church was the hottest church in the New Testament...or since. They were the poorest church (Paul took offerings from other churches to support them) and yet they ...read more

    Examing the vital role of the local church in the believer’s life

    CH__CH; What is missing? UR! I saw this humorous quote on a church sign several years ago, and it has always stuck with me. The church is not complete without "U"!

    Did you know that only 15% of churches in America are healthy? Could God be asking us to change? If so, in what areas? How do we identify what God is wanting us to change?

    An interesting article that I found. “Age changes things.” Who changed everything when I wasn’t looking? I’ve noticed lately that everything is farther away than it used to be. It’s even twice as far to the corner now, and they’ve added a hill! I’ve given up running for the bus; it leaves much ...read more

    God’s view of "failure" vs. the world’s view.

    This morning, I’d like to offer some thoughts on where we’ve been, where we are now, and where we go from here. I don’t claim that this is a comprehensive summary of our history as a church; nor do I present this as the final, authoritative word on what we’ve suffered and accomplished. For one ...read more
