    Church of christ

    I believe Max Lucado is a member of the CoC. From what I know about them, they are conservative, but Arminian for the most part. Believe that you HAVE to be baptised by Immersion and as an adult to be saved. United Church Of Christ is VERY LIBERAL - and they DO ordain homosexuals. I know this...

    Question for those of you in small churches (under 200)

    Are there any issues with gossip in your congregation? If so, how do you handle it and/or confront it? Dont get me wrong, my church is wonderful and I love them emmensely. It just so happens that a few distinct people in our family have 'inquiring mind', 'open ear' and 'exhausted tongue'...
