I quit attending church a few years back when the pastor started making moves to expand the relevancy of his message. We butted heads for several years about what he preached that contradicted scripture. I finally just gave up.
That reminds me of Explo ‘72 in Dallas, TX. I was there. It was wonderful.
Watermarks?!!!
I remember that discussion and so many claimed there were NO watermarks.
Good morning, exit!
It’s only 11° here, partly cloudy, may get to 47° which will be much warmer than yesterday.
You stay warm and don’t overdo the shoveling.
“That is why it is so important to find a good Bible believing church.”
We’re in that dilemma now. When we moved to TN we assumed it would be easy to find a good, fundamental, traditional Bible-believing church. It was NOT.
We’re Baptist so that’s where we looked first, and they are EVERYWHERE here. Sadly, most have gone “modern”, and we don’t return. (We would have gone to a different denomination if we’d found a church preaching the Word and had dignified, respectful services.)
After a few years, we found an excellent church. The young people are engaged and committed. The song service before the sermon was dignified, i.e., not a floorshow. No Vegas wannabes prancing around the platform caressing mics. The sermons were amazing. The “amen corner” was not too rowdy.
The pastor got very ill and had to retire suddenly (Parkinson’s). The Pulpit Committee is bringing in candidates now. Oy! Most have a modernistic slant and now we’re looking again.
Yesterday we watched Robert Jeffress’ service on TV. Sometimes we stream one of my cousins’ services. But we like to be IN church.
That’s awesome!
2022’s 1st Winter Storm Could Bring Up to 1 Foot of Snow to Parts of NJ, Del.
NBC10 First Alert Weather Team - 31m ago
What to Know
Snow, heavy at times, will fall on parts of the Philadelphia region Monday.
Some neighborhoods in New Jersey and Delaware could get around a foot of snow, while parts of the Pennsylvania suburbs and Lehigh Valley could get very little accumulation.
A First Alert is in effect through 5 p.m. Monday for Philadelphia and points south.
I believe one of the greatest lies Satan ever told was convincing the world that he doesn't exist. The second? Convincing us that our lives don't have worth, but they do.

Good morning, Rusty!
I hope you are able to fly out of WI tomorrow with all the flight cancellations.
Good preachers/churches are tough to find up here.
I gave up going as I went to a few and they were all headed up by what I call SJ pastors. Normally that stands for Social Justice, and that absolutely applies, but I always noted that they wore skinny jeans. So I started calling the Skinny Jeans pastors, and they were all the same.
My daughter’s family left their last church when the pastor was casually speaking one time and mentioned that they were soon going to visit the subject of man/woman marriage. He hinted that the Bible might not be quite so clear on that as you think. She never did hear the message - left right away.
I would say that now there are more “woke” pastors than Bible preaching pastors.
I liken it to the difference between Charles Stanley (whom I like) and Andy Stanley, his son (whom I can’t stomach).
What you are saying might be a part of why only 25% of Americans are now attending Church.
The COVID is playing it’s part but the creeping woke-ism is playing another.
When I go to Church, I want to hear the scriptures preached and not some SJ woke crapola.
And what is sad, Churches can’t understand why they are losing their flock.
