I thought the forum was dead!
So glad to see it isn't.

For the first time in over two years I stepped into a Church of Christ Sunday morning worship service. It was also my husband's first time to come to a Church of Christ with me. I was delighted to see that the Bering Drive worship minister, Melanie Simpson, was preaching today. You can hear the first part of Melanie's sermon on the heart of worship at the Bering Drive website.
Maybe there is a place for us in a CofC after all? Guess you might have been right, Chris Hutson.

President Jimmy Carter explains his reason for dissociating from the Southern Baptist Convention and for associating with "The Elders" in this piece from The Age. (Hat tip to Mike Cope!)

I'm posting this on behalf of Stan & Lorrie, from their church website:
Mercy Street Church of Christ is a new church planting in Abilene, Texas. The Mercy Street Church of Christ is a multi-racial, multi-cultural, gender-inclusive Church of Christ.
Also, I totally agree with Indie: we need an RSS feed. Chad, can you make that happen?
Some good stuff is going on at Rude Truth. Check out guest blogs from a variety of women.Labels: church plants, website
