"The Biblical fact is that there are no successful churches. There are, instead, communities of sinners, gathered before God week after week in towns and villages all over the world."

10 Reasons to Join a Church with Verse-by-Verse, Expository Preaching:
1. Depth Over Shallowness—Expository preaching unpacks the Bible verse by verse, offering a wealth of understanding and insight you miss with repeats of the same topics.
2. Context is King—Expository Preaching respects the Bible’s context, bringing clarity to truths you’ve been confused by.
3. The Whole Counsel of God—No topic is off-limits, ensuring a well-rounded spiritual feast every Sunday. You eventually hit everything.
4. No Pastor's Pet Topics—Each sermon is fresh, driven by Scripture, not personal preference and what the pastor subjectively “thinks” you need.
5. Growth in Maturity—Expository preaching fosters spiritual maturity. This method challenges and equips you to think biblically about all aspects of life over the course of years.
6. Scripture Interprets Scripture—Expository preaching helps you discover the connectedness of the Bible. You get to understand how passages illuminate each other, revealing God’s storyline from front to back.
7. Historical Roots—This method has been valued by the church throughout history for its faithfulness to the Word.
8. Avoids Unecessary Trends—Expository Preaching helps you stay grounded in truth, not fads. Expository preaching keeps the focus on the wisdom of the Bible.
9. Encourages Daily Bible Study—Expostory Preaching often inspires personal Bible study and reflection because you’re learning how to read the Bible in context.
10. Richer Worship Experience—When preaching is anchored in the Bible, it deepens and enriches the entire worship experience because you learn the meaning behind prayers and songs.

@BroLGray I think some of it is self seeking.. while a few are just trying to get what they believe is helpful to as many people as possible. You can read more about it.. in my new book. ‘Why Every Religion is Wrong Except Baptist’ available on Amazon this coming Easter.
There might be better stories out there, but what @CoachKDonahue & Co. have accomplished this season is extraordinarily noteworthy. The buy in from the Lady Black Knights has been inspiring to watch. #SisterHood
It costs something to be a true Christian. Let that never be forgotten. To be a mere nominal Christian, and go to church, is cheap and easy work. But to hear Christ’s voice, follow Christ, believe in Christ, and confess Christ, requires much self-denial. -@JCRyle
Tonight is poignant reminder: all men are spiritually inclined.
Most may not talk about God, but the moment devastation comes, the human instinct within man knows to cry out to its Maker.
