Questions

I have a question? Actually I am interested in your questions. Our Sunday night service is called "Questions" and each week we try to tackle a relevant question about faith, religion, the challenges of our day and/ or life. I would very much like to hear what questions you would like to be topics for that service and even what you might like to hear preached (Individual sermon or sermon series) about during the regular 9 AM or 11 AM Sunday services. You can respond by comment to this posting, send me an e-mail at donaquila@gmail.com or leave a note under my door. Thanks ahead of time for your help.

Sometimes I wonder

Sometimes I wonder what makes people tick. But I understand Paul in chapter 16 of Romans better when he tells us to stay away from those whose purpose is to stir negatively. I asked a simple question to get some more material for my Questions service that is offered Sunday evenings at Grace. It is an interactive service where we explore a topic much like a Bible Study but we have the elements of worship including prayer and singing. I got one legitimate question and two folks who desired to teach me about the Bible or about what to preach. Did they not read the Blog to understand that legitimate input would be helpful? I am always looking for questions that those who want to know more about Christianity, the Bible or life to explore. Promoting your worldview or Biblical view is why many folks stay away from religious places. We are not about hating, but about loving one another. We are not about excluding but including everyone into the opportunity of redemption and grace that God offers. But that does not mean we cannot question and discuss the issues of the world around us. That's my two cents.

Questions

I have a new service called Questions which raises the issues that we often have about church, God, religion, etc. I am curious for those who follow my blog if you would be willing to help me in accumulating the lists of questions that my Sunday service can explore. Could you reply to this post? I will endevour to explore them on here as well.
