Why I Love the Church (#2)
Perhaps you know a professing Christian who says, “I’d go to church if it wasn’t for all the hypocrites.” Or maybe a member of a local church has mistreated or criticized you, even lied to you. Sadly, that happens. People in churches don’t always act like—well— Christians. So that raises the question . . . Can you follow Christ and not be part of a church? Is that an option? Today’s lesson on GRACE TO YOU can help you answer those questions . . . as John MacArthur explains why he loves the church, and why you should too.
Why I Love the Church (#1)
If you ask a handful of church leaders why people love being in their congregations, you’d probably hear answers like . . . great music, friendly people, an enjoyable atmosphere. It’s fair to say, those are the main selling points for many churches today . . . the reasons their leaders think you’ll love to attend each week. But are those the main reasons to love a local church? John MacArthur looks at those reasons today on GRACE TO YOU in a message he calls . . . “Why I Love the Church.”
The Responsibilities of the Church: Preaching, Part 2b
Here’s an interesting exercise: Do an internet search for churches in your area. What do they emphasize–what do they say is their purpose? You’ll probably find priorities like . . . building relationships, addressing emotional needs, having a contemporary style. Now those things are fine for a community center or support group . . . but have they found too high a place in the church? Join John MacArthur now on GRACE TO YOU in his series titled, Why Is Preaching Worth Fighting For?
The Responsibilities of the Church: Preaching, Part 2a
Thanks for joining us here on GRACE TO YOU with John MacArthur, a man who has spent more than five decades teaching the Bible verse-by-verse . . . often for nearly an hour at a time. Clearly, he’s committed to in-depth preaching. But the question is, should all pastors still preach like that? Since attention spans have dropped should pastors adapt their messages? Wouldn’t congregations be better served by shorter, more topical sermons?Consider that today on GRACE TO YOU, as John MacArthur looks at this question: Why Is Preaching Worth Fighting For?
The Responsibilities of the Church: Preaching, Part 1
