    I guess the Gothard movement has died

    Years ago, here in New Orleans, there was a healthy number of families from SBC, Assemblies of God and Non-Denom who were faithful in attending all those meetings they had. I lost contact with just about all of them but was in Tickfaw not long ago and sat down with one of the more faithful...

    Church-less Christians

    Church-less Christians,,,, I know more than a few. There are some who simply cannot find a church to their liking (which is understandable down here), others do not think the a church, as we know it today, is what the Bible describes in the New Testament. Is there a New Testament model that...

    Misguided/misplaced vengeance....

    I never could understand why someone who has been hurt by a person (who belongs to a certain group or type or label) seeks revenge, not on the wrongdoer but on the innocent folks of the same group, type, or label. On another forum, a man named John is constantly attacking others who belong to a...

    AVOIDING THEOLOGY FOR THE SAKE OF "MINISTRY"

    Many years ago, a man surfaced who was supposed to have had great teaching abilities. Being Deaf himself, and probably “deaf-voiced” like me, ministry was limited to the Deaf world. Though he didn’t travel abroad weekly, there were two or three annual events that he always attended, and...

    Is this steeple-jacking? Is it ethical?

    Is this ETHICAL? If there was one class I would say is a MUST, outside of biblical teaching, interpretation, preaching, etc… I would say everyone who wishes to work in a church or ministry receive ample instruction in ETHICS. About six months ago, I was reading a Facebook friend’s blog...

    Prayer request

She said it is a rough surgery, and will be in recovery for three days, then come home and take it really easy for six weeks.

    Whats your agenda here?

    What’s your agenda here? On the old FFF, there were quite a few who had their agenda, their reason for being there. Many were IFB or IB, and were just going along with everything else, speaking when they wanted, or just reading along. Others, though, we former IFB, and they had this “he...

    As pastor, what would you do?

    Greetings from New Orleans..... Just wanted to throw out a topic..i fishing for opinions. Suppose a woman wants to make a surprise announcement in church, good news, something to be thrilled about. You say ok. She gets up there and screams "I am going to be a grandmother!!!" Problem is, her...

    Church Selection..To each his own

    Facebook has allowed many of us to be reconciled with old friends, and people we met on other forums become a lot more personal..you know their real names, their background, family, etc. I am an evangelist, and non-legalistic, congregational vote, etc.. I attend either an Independent Baptist...

    Music/preaching time proportion..50/50 or what?

    An issue has come up in a church i visit once every few months. Music goes on for the first half hour, the pastor preaches about 20 mins, then they sing for another half hour. Should we sing more than preach, preach more than sing, or what?
