I'm in a church wilderness season! Please pray for me!

[AdamThao]

Wish I could move to Arizona and be apart of Costi’s church

If I found a perfect Church group and joined - it would no longer be perfect!

This is so helpful. Thank you Pastor Hinn.

I am on a journey to find a solid church as you have pointed out. At 52, after a lifetime in the Pentecostal Assemblies of Canada organization, and a year of Bible college at a Pentecostal Bible college here in Ontario, I have found myself exiting this denomination. It has been challenging. I found a Reformed fairly solid doctrine church but they are still singing music from the Charismatic movement and this past Sunday the pastor told us from the pulpit he stands with Alistair Begg and has counselled many to attend gay "weddings". I just can't do it or be around that kind of compromise. So difficult to find a good, safe church.

Thank you, Costi. There are so many areas without good, solid Biblical churches that Christians are struggling to find one. I live in area where most churches rely on pragmatism rather than the gospel. I pray that solid churches will be planted in cities where it is a dry and barren spiritual land.

I live in Northern England. I started to attend a nearby church but then left because they focus a lot on tithing and healing and speaking in tongues. They do believe the the spiritual gifts that the apostles had are available to us today. They're also in favor of female pastors. On top of that, the girls who attend their youth ministry and the women who attend the main services dress very inappropriately.

This is great Costi, thank you brother. You and others like you in the ministry helped my family and I come out of the WOF movement 3 years ago. Loved your book God Greed and the Prosperity Gospel!
In regards to your video, I would add that we should also look for a church that practices church discipline in a Biblical, healthy manner.
We’ve found a true gem in our local PCA church. Expository preaching, strong focus on small groups and discipleship and community, complimentarianism, and practicing church discipline. I praise God for His goodness to us!

Awesome word.
Thank you Costi 😊
We moved almost 3 years ago to a church similar to what you are describing and it is so amazing.
Our twin girls have grown in Jesus and have just graduated grade 12 and are off to Bible college
We have grown also.
We have an amazing lead pastor and an awesome youth pastor, both on the same goals preach the Jesus of the Bible and share the Gospel.
Glory to God 😊

Blessings

How about. Church that speaks in tounges?? Or how often they take communion?

[tnu]

Moving to Calgary next month, I appreciate any recommendation, I have no idea about what I will find there and I have to find a new church

[hismercyismore]

I have. Question, I just started going to a new church and they don’t offer Bible studies. Is this an issue?

[GoodMorning-zhle]

That awkward moment when your church doesn't do any of the 6 points...

[doemiller]

How about Mathew 16? Its all there in a nutshell. The perfect Church of Christ!

[manisymone]

Hi Costi, what are your toughts on female deacons?

[carly--]

What about churches who don’t want to see Romans 11 for the difference in Israel and the church. This is important because God is not finished with Israel the nation but most reformed pastors will deny Romans 11 and say that the church has replaced Israel

[danelleventer]

Should Arminianism vs Reformed Theology be a deviding line?

[letyfoster]

What do you think of a church that rents a room Sunday to worship at a Seventh Day Adventist church?

[hismercyismore]

My son and I are having a difficult time finding a church, it seems that churches today allow women to teach coed Bible studies . This clearly violates scripture according to 1Timothy 2-11-13. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? We bring it up to the pastor but he doesn’t seem to care, which is well quite discerning. The woman don’t mind teaching the studies either .

[tomhitchcock]

See if they cancel church when it’s on Christmas Day.
