Stop Going To Church – Be The Church

by admin

Stop Going To Church – Be The Church Ephesians 5:25, Matthew 16:18, Mark 7:6-13 That’s right – a Pastor is encouraging you to stop going to church; I really mean it! STOP! We’ve all become accustomed to simply going to church – as if church is a place. It’s not! Many of us have special […]

1 Chronicles 2:1–55; 1 Timothy 3:1–7; Psalm 75:1–76:12 In Paul’s qualifications for overseers, he mentions a necessary trait for anyone who wants to lead in a community: “He must manage his own household well, with all dignity keeping his children submissive, for if someone does not know how to manage his own household, how will […]
