Seems to me there is a difference in what conversion means when talking about those who are raised in a Christian home compared to those who are converted from a non-Christian home. Those like myself, raised in a Christian home, might regard becoming a Christian as an on-going process and do not hav...

In a previous post I wrote - When I spent some years in a Mennonite Brethren church, I recall there were courses given at times for those who were keen on evangelism which taught people methods of reaching others with the Gospel in their daily lives outside the church. Courses such as 'Alpha' by Ni...

I'm thankful that God not only forgives our past failings but He puts them into the sea of His forgetfulness never to be remembered against us again. He is a God of new beginnings.

ADC is more congregational and has a more "Beachy" feel..and is influenced by "kingdom" theology. One of the founders of ADC tells me that only about 5% of ADC is influenced by "kingdom theology". Could you (or someone else) elaborate on what is meant by "Kingdom ...

The place where I am most familiar with where people are born again is through home bible studies. A Christian invites an unbeliever to join in their 'care group' where they have a time of getting to know each other and study the bible using a bible course or just going through a book in the bible a...

By entrusting all to God to sort it all brings peace.' Seems to me this is a harder th...
