  • Don’t Be Called Leaders
    Jon Zens
    When R.C. Sproul boiled everything down about church life, he concluded that 'in Protestant worship, for the most part, we sit and listen to a sermon.' But aren’t we justified in asking, why would we devote an ounce of concern to this since there is nothing in the New Testament concerning sermons? The vital question that begs for an answer is, why have we taken scissors and cut...

Fairbairn noted concerning the early church that “regarded as to its internal relating, it was a family...in the apostles’ day churches were so small that everyone knew every other and kept a watchful eye on one another.” Most people would readily admit that now the majority of churches have lost a vital family atmosphere.

  • What's with Paul and Women?
    Jon H. Zens

Jon Zens exposes the fallacies of this interpretation, and opens up the meaning of 1 Timothy 2:9-15 using insights gleaned from the Artemis-saturated Ephesian culture where Timothy was left to stand against false teaching (1:3). Going beyond 1 Ti...

  • A Church Building Every 1/2 Mile
    Jon Zens
    Today denominationalism and the existence of institutional churches (buildings) abound across the fruited plain. Did you ever wonder where it all came from? In the church that Christ founded, a singular, simple but profoundly dynamic group of people quickly spread across the map of the then known world.
