Objections To Christianity

I need your help. I'm planning the teaching calendar for Project Church for the remainder of 2008.  Being that we're for doubters, explorers, and followers of Christ, I thought it would make sense to do a series about common objections to Christianity.  I have written a list of topics I've encountered ...

Church Q’s: What If There Was No Electricity?

As I've studied and wrestled through what kind of church Project Church will be, I've had to ask myself some tough questions.  Today, I'd like to share one of them.  It may seem like an odd question, but it is profoundly affecting my thinking. What would church look like if there ...
