Stand Up for the Truth

Understand that many will tell you the Emergent Church has all but died out.

As we’re going to see today, ambiguity about important issues is often a symptom of yoking with the world and wanting to be liked by everybody. So we’ve become Christians who want [...]

With all the challenges facing the Body of Christ, we’re going to discuss in particular the hurdles church leaders often face when shepherding their flock and equipping their people.  Some of the opportunities we have in the church today to reach the lost are tremendous.
