Representative
So I received an interesting call yesterday from a Methodist pastor down the road (this could go a lot of different ways). They have been doing a class on Christian religions for the last 8 weeks and have had representatives from each denomination come and speak. In a nutshell, Caleb and I have been chosen to represent the Churches of Christ. A few things they asked us to talk about-History/background, sacraments (Communion and baptism) and worship style among others. I love this idea, and I am pumped to have the opportunity to represent our denomination. Anything you would like to clear up to other denominations about the Churches of Christ as whole? What is the one thing you would make absolutely clear about our denomination?

diversity! A lot of denominational people who have an unpleasant experience with a belligerent-conservation-CoC person or congregtation typically think that all CoC's must be like that. Not so. In fact, not even most of the conservative CoC's are like that--just the extreme ones.

Perhaps that most of us don't actually think we're the only real Christians and the only ones going to heaven.
ReplyDeleteI would agree, that since we have no "headquarters" there are many differences among the churches of Christ. You can only speak for your beliefs because technically we aren't a denomination that has a governing body...just the Bible!
