Rethinking church: A foundation built on the Word will not fail
Rethinking church: A foundation built on the Word will not fail
The first church I ever pastored was in a small community in the Brazos Valley of Texas. It was a simple wooden chapel, with white siding and a metal roof, the floors were original to the sanctuary from when it was built in 1851. The church was called Zion Methodist and its humble abode and modest strappings would not be what one would think when reading the word Zion. You see, Zion in the Bible has two different meanings, it was the hill on which the city of David (Jerusalem) was built. But it also describes the heavenly city or kingdom of heaven established by God. Either way, when one first walked into this humble place of worship, trodding upon the ancient floorboards of days gone by, very little imagery would invoke the city of Jerusalem or the Kingdom of God. But that was because worship hadn’t started yet! 10/11/2024 02:35 PM
