Upon entrance to the Ebenezer church, the high-peaked ceilings immediately mesmerized me. The white, peaked ceilings were beautifully decorated in imagery of what appeared to be a flower motif repeated all throughout. The three windows at the top of the sanctuary brought lots of natural light creating a feeling of the presence of God. The architecture of the tall, elaborate stained glass held symbols of the church including the grapevine, wheat, etc. A worker for the National Parks Service told us that the stain glass windows had been donated the after destruction of the building, which is why names appear at bottom of every window.

Bethel Baptist Church never encountered a challenge like this before. The church accepted an invitation to participate in a mission in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Making an appearance in a foreign environment terrified both adolescents and adults. Even with those uneasy feelings, the congregation quickly zeroed in on the goal at hand in spreading God’s love to this needy region. With events such as church cleanup, food ministry, and disaster relief, the church left with a greater appreciation of life, and how lucky many of the citizens in the United States truly are.

One of those manifestations is the True Bibleway Church of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Apostolic Faith in Natchez, Mississippi.

On August 13, 1954, Reverend George D. West announced that the Tennessee Christian Missionary Society, which is the state organization of the Disciples of Christ churches in Tennessee, purchased the 1802 Grand Ave property for its new headquarters. The TCMS began in 1894 as the result of “movements that were backlashes against the rigid denominationalism of the early 1800s. The movement’s purpose was to return to the principles of the early churches described in the New Testament.” By 1969, the TCMS outgrew the 1802 Grand Ave property, put it on the market for $30,000, and moved to 3700 Richland Avenue.

I started out as a expendible piece at Ebenezer Baptist Church I was very active and I was able to keep up with many tasks I was given.

That also helped me when i worked in Friedwald Center where multitasking was a must at that job I had as a

It is just not a series of meetings with the laity that the church leadership becomes complete. It is also essential to know that a “congregational life is about balance and the integration of worship, work and witness.” Recently, I happened to attend a church service at a non-denominational mega church. It was not only surprising to see that people belonging to one ethnicity, culture, and language had separated their seating sections, it was more surprising that they hung out with each other for certain events too.

This religious study will define the evolutionary growth of cultural and racial diversity of the Evangelical Covenant Church (ECC) in the late 129th and 20th centuries. The original pietisten philosophy of the Swedish protestant movement defines the foundations of the ECC in the late 19th century. However, the formation of Mission Friends societies throughout the United States, and especially in the Chicago area, prompted a break towards a more radical evangelical ideology. These “conventicles” would define a distinct American style of evangelical practice through the leadership of Carl Olof Rosenius (1816-1868) and eventually, under the leadership of Paul Peter Waldenström (1838-1917). These cultural shifts would occur during the Great Migration

I questioned if I had ever quit on my responsibilities and if so, what motivated me to do so. What stood out most about the statement was that it regarded respectable people. Good and decent people can flee responsibilities because of sin. It makes one wonder how many great leaders abandoned what was most important because of sin. This speaks volumes to the context of my local church.

The Giver teaches us that love is essential. When the Giver transmits the Christmas memory to Jonas, Jonas learns of a feeling that his community is devoid of, love. “ ‘I liked the feeling of love,’ he confessed… ‘I wish we still had that,’ he whispered.(158)” Jonas now truly understands what the community has been missing, and what the community should be like. Without love, the community could never completely experience loss, therefore the release system survived and no one questioned it nor thought badly of it.

Consumerism took root in the 1950s and has now become the foundation of America. The Church finding no better option thus decided marketing Christian values was the only solution to revive the Church. “Recognizing its depleting numbers in a consumer society, the Christian church (particularly the right-wing evangelical groups) now seeks to win people over to Sunday service through the power of advertising (Carrette and King 125). If the Church could not get people in the doors with a focus of a God who should be respected and served, it would bring them in with promises of a God who respects and serves us.

Regarding the impact that others in a meeting have on his decision making process, it is given to understand that he desires to know the heart and the motives behind the individual speaking before moving forward with any suggestions made. His concerns regarding this issue are that motives may be proliferated by traditionalists, resistant to change or by those seeking vain-glory, taking on many forms. In matters of job security, this pastor remains open to serve the Lord where He wants him to serve. As he said, “At the end of the day, God has not called us to be employed, but to be faithful.” Ultimately, this pastor in many ways still seeks to attain “a balanced view on all issues,” desiring to make educated decisions.

This includes being a leader out in the world and in his home. “The Bible instructs men to lead their families and often refers to leadership as shepherding. God designed the church, in part, to equip men to do the work of the ministry, and ministry begins at home.” (Navey, 2014) Being a servant leader is a vital part of biblical manhood. Jesus is clear on how man should be a servant leader in Luke 22:25-26, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.
