Grace Baptist Church |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/grace-baptist-church
What’s In a Name? Oct 14, 2009. Our church name is Grace Baptist. Obviously this is not the only name that a Biblical church can wear- either with the words Grace or Baptist. But something very dynamic is being said with that name that we wear. Grace defines our view of doctrine and practice. We desire to be an organized body (church) that emphasizes God’s grace in our lives. What is grace? II Pet. 3:18). And by being that, the God of Grace is exalted with great glory. Letters to my Grace Family. This is...

The Need for Exposition |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/2009/09/15/the-need-for-exposition
The Need for Exposition. In the previous post, I said that this one would be practical concerning the presentation of exposition. I am going to deviate a little bit here because I think that I missed an important point concerning why we should be committed to exposition as undershepherds, and why the people of God’s pasture should desire and demand expositional preaching. 8221; Perhaps the cry should be, “I may become ill, build me up in the most holy faith in a consistent, thorough fashion! You are comm...

Exposition and Ezra |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/2009/09/18/exposition-and-ezra
I see nothing in this passage about finding the needs of the assembly and meeting those needs. I see nothing of topical preaching. I see nothing of opinions of Ezra or the other Levites, nor preaching to get results. I simply see faithful exposition of the Word of God, and the Spirit of God doing a mighty work.

Is the Christian School Movement Dead? |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/2006/09/06/is-the-christian-school-movement-dead
Is the Christian School Movement Dead? Is the Christian School movement dead? If it is, do you consider that “good riddance” and “It’s about time”? Or with a mournful dirge, do you lament the loss of the only way we will ever be able to reach the world with the Gospel? Why did that goal fail. I believe there were several fundamental flaws in our philosophy of Christian education. 1 The school became equal to or more important than the church. 2 We let the world teach us how to educate our children. I wil...

The Trek by Pallavi Rao | Over Chai
https://overchai.wordpress.com/2009/09/25/the-trek-by-pallavi-rao
Thoughts from the Himalaya and beyond. The juicy side of summer. The Trek by Pallavi Rao. September 25, 2009. On the first day of trekking, but missing the chief instigator who was also photographer in chief. When my Massi asked me if I wanted to come for a trek with the family, I jumped at the chance, not knowing what I had gotten myself into. Grader). So on the 24. Took 8 long hours and me, being me, slept through. Most of it. =D. So I was made to look at the never ending landscape of dusty roads, vill...

Church Servants |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/2009/10/06/church-servants
In our adult Bible study at church. Both are servants, the deacons serving in the physical realm to promote unity and growth, and the elders to serve in the spiritual realm to promote unity and growth. But where is the “division of labor” so to speak? I think that these two job descriptions sum up the responsibility of the pastors and deacons. Deacons 1. Laquo; Exposition and Ezra. Date : October 6, 2009. It seems like we have Americanized the God-ordained structure of the church to mirror our democratic...

The Presentation of Exposition |
https://christianjoe.wordpress.com/2009/09/10/the-presentation-of-exposition
The Presentation of Exposition. I have been thinking of what exposition is not. Lately. I have thought through these things regarding experiences I have had (regrettably also that which I have done), as well as different books I have read. One resource that has caused me to think more about this topic is the book. The Nine Marks of A Healthy Church. By Pastor Mark Dever. Exposition is not verse by verse explanation of a text. Exposition is not void of using other texts. The Need for Exposition. You are c...
