I generally listen to my I-Pad as I retire for the evening. I select a YouTube video that interests me. I usually fall asleep in the middle of the program and sometime later in the night I wake up and turn it off, or don’t. This past Sunday morning I awoke to a church service playing on my I-Pad.

Because we want to be pastors who love Jesus and it marks our life. We are passionate about Christ. I know we’ve asked Jeff [Purswell] to do a session on theological … Continue reading
Since 400 AD, the Church has insisted that men who make their living dispensing God thoughts get to speak without challenge, without scrutiny, without debate.
