    After the team had been fed and we had been to supper we put the mules to the wagon, filled it with chairs and we were off to the meeting. When we reached the locality it was about dark and the people were assembling. Their horses and wagons filled up the cleared spaces and the singing was...

    Example of a Wesleyan Church Service

    I was brought up in the military and ended up in Michigan as an atheist teenager. I remember smoking a cigarette and overlooking the ice cold tundra wondering how on earth there could be a creator. When I was 17 and living with my grandmother here in Virginia I would wash dishes during the...

    What part of 'you know not' do you not understand?

    Christ comes as a thief, in an hour and a day in which we think not. It is better to live the Christian life in daily expectancy that Christ may return for his church today! But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. - Matthew 24:36 Watch...

    How did modern worship music turn out to be so bad?

    I was brought up in the military and in the GARBC (Registered Baptist Church) and did not like to be touched. When I was 17 I came down to Virginia to stay with my grandmother. Like the GC Rankin story given above I would attend the revivals. Instead of the circuit rider they had the evangelist...

    How did modern worship music turn out to be so bad?

    Early the next morning I was up and in a serious frame of mind. I went with the other hands to the cottonfield and at noon I slipped off in the barn and prayed. But the more I thought of the way those young people were moved in the meeting and with what glad hearts they had shouted their praises...

    Does anyone remember this guy? I spent a college year teaching Sunday School in a Freewill Baptist church and the preachers preached exactly like this guy, the Rev. Maze Jackson. The Freewill Baptist church foot washing service was an amazing event to have attended!

    Will we have to rethink the age of the universe?

    If E = mc2 then we can divide and conclude that... Mass (m) = Energy (E/c2) And there are three varieties... Natural E/c2 - All mass is basically cooled plasma Mental E/c2 - Our brains output is a result of E/c2 Spiritual E/c2 - E (motivation, love) / c2 (faith, hope, charity, joy) The bible...
