How often should we observe the Lord’s Supper?
Never. If, however, you want to know how often we ought to celebrate the Lord’s Supper, that’s a whole different matter. For which the answer is, weekly, at the very least. What’s the difference between observing and celebrating? The former … Continue reading

What Love Is This? The World’s Hatred of the God of Love
The simplicity of God is a doctrine that provides a rather useful fence. The perfections of God are, of course, worthy of our excitement. Their infinity is, of course, staggering. But the simplicity of God is that place where these … Continue reading

What should I expect from my local church?
It is an easy thing to grumble about the marketing mentality of so many local churches. Rather than taking direction from God’s Word we take it from sociological studies, surveys, and sage savants. What we often miss is that churches … Continue reading

“A Young Lady,” An Old Story of Ongoing Sin
Like so many others I find myself taken aback by the recent resignation of Robert Morris, senior pastor of the massive Gateway Church in Texas. Morris resigned his position after it was made public that when he was a young, … Continue reading

Got to Get Back to the Garden
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I’ll admit I got taken in the first time. As a grade school child my conception of cool included too tight silk shirts and blue jeans with more … Continue reading

Sorry Friends, No JCE Podcast This Week
But here, for your viewing/listening pleasure, is our final study on the book of Romans. We hope you’ll find it edifying.
Love One Another, Because He is In Us and Them
Do we not glide happily past this command? It should, though it doesn’t, go without saying. There’s no question that the Bible teaches this. There’s no question that the Bible emphasizes this. There’s no question that we’re not very good … Continue reading
