Don’t Let Distractions At Christmas Take Over The Holiday
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year. With the kids jingle belling, and everyone telling you, ‘Be of good cheer!’ It’s the most wonderful time of the year.” This song captures the nostalgic and magical feeling I get around…
Church Reviews: Going To Church For The Wrong Reason (Part 2)
Last week I discussed online church reviews and five reasons reviewers gave for attending those churches. The reasons weren’t bad things to like about a church, but they shouldn’t be the main reasons anyone chooses to attend. Today I have…
Church Reviews: Going To Church For The Wrong Reason (Part 1)

Christianity gets a lot of criticism for its teachings, moral standards, leaders, and well, existing. Some of the criticism is warranted, but sometimes it’s based completely on lies. Today we’ll look at a lie that is as tiresome as it…
Cast Your Net: Reaching Everyone With The Gospel
Fishers of men. This expression is so common in churches and significant to Christians that we even teach it to our children in one of the catchiest Bible songs around. (You’re singing it in your head right now, aren’t you?)…
Pastors Should Be Thankful For Their Churches
Last week, I wrote a post about appreciating our pastors. I hoped to encourage Christians to not turn to celebrity pastors and instead be thankful for the everyday ministry work their local pastors do. However, congregants aren’t the only people…
