Episode 7 - Inflated Church Rolls

After a 1-week hiatus (thanks, Eddie! - Ok, maybe Allen was busy too...) we discuss the issue of church membership rolls that don't accurately reflect the people who actually attend regularly. This is a major problem in many Baptist churches, where membership rolls can be inflated by as much as a 3 to 1 ratio or even worse. Eddie and Allen discuss why this is such a problem and also what are biblical ways all churches can improve in this area.

Episode 21 - Funerals

Image
It's been a few weeks since Eddie and Allen actually podcasted 'normally' - (over the phone). This week they tackle an issue that comes up quite regularly in the local church: death. There isn't a class in Seminary entitled 'how to do a funeral.' In this episode, Eddie and Allen discuss the important ministry of serving families in the church who have lost a loved one. They also discuss how this looks like with faithful church members as compared to less faithful ones, and even with people who have died who never were a member of the church and never really exhibited the fruit of Christianity. This episode has some practical takeaways to use in your local ministry. Listen to this Week's Episode Subscribe via iTunes
