The crying need of the hour - every hour - is to put the churches on a wartime footing. Mission leaders are crying out, “Where is the church’s concept of militancy, of a mighty army willing to suffer, moving ahead with exultant determination to take the world by storm? Where is the risk-taking, the launching […]
The Gospel Is:
The Risen Jesus
And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. If in this life only we have hoped in Christ, we are of all people most to be pitied.
1 Corinthians 15:17-19

Sorry for any confusion. Austin & Charlotte’s blog has been deliberately taken down and will not be put back up in the foreseeable future. Any information can be expected to follow group/cluster prayer chains as usual.

Romans 3:21
We have a problem: we are apart from God, in open rebellion from his kingship. God has been gracious to us in that he hasn’t wiped us […]

A Gift of Righteousness

Romans 4:3
We have a problem of unrighteousness. That is to say, we have no standing in […]
Omnipotence is not a name given to the sum of all power but an attribute of a personal God whom we Christians believe to be the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ and off all who believe on Him to life eternal. The worshiping man finds this knowledge a source of wonderful strength for his […]
The issue of earning a living is not nearly so important as whether the next generation can grasp the meaning of the Word of God. We need an education that puts the highest premium, under God, on knowing the meaning of God’s Book and growing in the abilities that will unlock its riches for a […]
