    How can you financially support a church whose finances are in a secret black box?

    I was raised Southern Baptist, where an annual 'Business Meeting' was held once a year or so to print up a budget to be voted on by formal church members who felt like showing up on a Wednesday night. Deacons (and budget committee members when there was such a committee assigned), decided what...

    The falling away (of the Church), is far slower,, than men expect (selah)

    Hi there, So I worked this out for myself, but I thought I had better share it - and stay in the right spirit, than be alone in my interpretation of where the Church stands. Essentially, people become aware that the falling away is happening, but they can't draw conclusion from that, that it...

    The falling away, is primarily Israel, not the nations (but the nations must be ready)..

    Hi there, So yes, just to allay the fears of some, I know Jesus said the tribulation would test all flesh, but it is important to put that in context: the Cross of Jesus tested all flesh, our generation has not fallen further away. They will be tested further, but they will not continue to fall...

Looking back on it, it’s happened a lot. I didn’t sense it was the devil trying to hinder me, but I sense it’s more so a sin of...

    What's it Mean to Be the Church?

    I was on Facebook yesterday when I saw a meme which said: “We will never change the world by just going to church. We will only change the world by being the church.” In my response to the meme I agreed, but then I said, “A lot of folks have different ideas about what it means to be the...

    Calling to Ministry…just not in a Church

    Hello, I have had a strong calling to the ministry for 9 years. For some reason it has never worked out within a Church. I have done more ministry outside of the church. I’m wondering if this normal. All of it unpaid and mostly unplanned. I have tried to plan it but it doesn’t seem to work as...

    I'm back (and looking for a church)

    I made this account a while ago and was going through a rough spot in my life. That rough spot is still going, but it's getting better because for the first time in my entire life, I have seen (and accepted) responsibility for how I got myself to this point, my criminal record, etc. and I have...

    Broken Faith

    What is Broken Faith? Well, it cant be the belief system found in someone who is religious but lost. The unbelievers can't have broken faith, as they have none yet. So, this isn't the person who is water baptized and very religious, but is not born again, as they have no faith to be broken...

    As long as you have the cross, you have the way

    Hi there, So yes, I have been freed of a very severe bondage. As long as you have the cross, you have the way. Don't ask God to fix today, what He can fix for all time, at the end. This is the miracle of God, that what He saved you from at the end, He saved for eternity from that point on.

    Do Not Neglect Koinonia (fellowship)

    For true disciples of Christ, koinonia (fellowship) is essential in our walk with Him in this world. Throughout the gospels we learn that Jesus set for us the example of this during His earthly ministry. The Lord made it a point to spend special time away from the crowds and this world to meet...

    How do praise and worship teams work in megachurches?

    My church is mid-sized, with about 200 people (pre-COVID, no one's there now), and we have a praise team with 7 singers (including myself, and I'm our keyboard player). I was wondering since a lot of megachurches also have praise teams that stay around 8-12 people each Sunday, how do they...
