The world is changing. U.S. Christians need to make a fast shift from the spectator church to the house church, where individuals get empowered for growth.

I've been looking for an evangelical Church like I went to in my childhood. Have they gone underground or just folded all together. I want a Church that preaches to all of us sinners and presents Jesus as the only "cure". Every Church I've been in in the last 30, maybe 40 years, tickle the ears of their congregations. That is sinful.

I don't mean to offend, but I'm Catholic, and believe me, the priests in my parish don't "tickle the ears of their congregations" (nice phrase, btw), they tell it like it is.

Try a Reformed Baptist church. The one we go to in Portland, OR definately preaches the Gospel. Sometimes it's rather hellfire and brimstone...

look not further..."where two or more are gathered...there am I"
Just might become a fallback position if not Salvation of the Church...

If you are anywhere near Peebles, I have a suggestion. :-)
