[VIDEO] A Four Minute Break for Your Soul

I was recently introduced to the band “The City Harmonic”, and honestly as I type this, I’m not even sure if I should be embarrassed that I’ve never heard of them before. I love Christian music, and I have a lot of the well-known and popular church songs on my iPod, but I admit, I […]

Christ vs. Christians

I saw a quote the other day (not sure of the source) that said, “I wish I had met Christ before I had met a Christian.” I immediately thought, “That’s offensive!” I then immediately thought, “That’s sad.” It was one of those things that you read two, maybe three times. There’s a lot of meaning […]

Things Visitors Look for

New visitors aren’t all alike. People walk through your doors each Sunday for many different reasons, so it’s important to cover all of your bases.
