    Changes in Worship Style

    I've been attending a large AOG church for some time now, and while I like the head pastor and his sermons, the worship style is perplexing. You sit in the dark for the first 20 - 30 minutes while a rock group plays. There seems to be little worshipping in the spirit the way spirit-filled...

    Fire Bible

    I believe it is a lightly edited version of the "Full Life Study Bible" that has been around with different titles since 1991, available now only in NIV. The study notes are excellent.
