...according to their website they meet at the Ritz in Sheffield. I had never heard of them until the article about college kids moving into dorms.
Curious, who are they and where did they come from?

Parkview on Hwy. 72? If it is, did they have a split?

Brother Shane is a GREAT MAN OF GOD!! I love that guy. If you get your feelings hurt easily, don't go to one of his sermons. He tells it like it is based on the Word of God. If you get your toes stepped on during a sermon, then he is talkin to you!! lol
Awesome man though...just awesome. There are not enough good adjectives to describe him, and if you are seeking a church home I urge you to attend one of his services.

I always heard, if you get more than 3 Baptist in the same room there might be a split.

I'm gonna bet the same about you. Nobody's perfect. Well, there was that ONE GUY!
I've gone to Parkview since I got out of the Navy in 2007, so I was there when Archie came and went. Archie is an awesome guy/singer/songwriter/musician/Christian (not necessarily in that order) and I hated to see him go. He had to do what he felt led to do and, coupled with the attitudes of some older members of the congregation, Archie felt led to go somewhere else.
No, there was no split at Parkview. Yes, Parkview has been around since the early to mid 90's and the building was, at one point, for sale and over a million dollars in debt. Things have changed, mostly for the better. Brother Jim Cummings preaches the Word of God and doesn't care if someone's toes get stepped on. Plus, we are blessed to have Dr. Bob Pitman as a member, although he's on the road quite a bit as a "wandering prophet" (his words). I love that guy.

To turn the conversation a bit, reading this stuff about the Brother Shane gave me the shivers. Don't take it personally Peter, I appreciate your reverence for the guy, but this sort of illustrates the main criticism that i have with most churches in my denomination (COC). That is, they have become preacher-centric, which can be illustrated by how the members discuss and treat the preacher. I have a great church home and I'm very happy there, but it has taken years of searching to find a place that is not centered around the preacher or the sermons.
I really don't intend to ever be in a church again where the preacher is exalted as if he were some sort of priest or prophet again. Not criticizing Launch Point, although it may sound like it, I'm speaking generally about the church world that I see (southern US evangelical).

Ah, yes, indeed. And you used that arguement (sic) the other way when trying to say that Mary had other children. I told you brother could have many meanings. Remember?

Bro. Bill,
Do you believe Mary was the mother of someone?
If so; whom?

Hi VP,
Good logic. You have just proven that Mary was not really the mother of the Human Jesus Christ.
Matthew 12:46-50, "While He was still speaking to the crowds, behold, His mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to Him. Someone said to Him, "Behold, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside seeking to speak to You." But Jesus answered the one who was telling Him and said, "Who is My mother and who are My brothers?" And stretching out His hand toward His disciples, He said, "Behold My mother and My brothers! For whoever does the will of My Father who is in heaven, he is My brother and sister and mother."
So, using your logic, that when the disciples told Jesus Christ, "Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside. . ." -- that did not really mean His true mother and brothers -- but, instead, meant His spiritual mother and brothers; just as I refer to another Christian as my Christian brother or Christian sister.
This means that, by your logic -- that Mary did not give birth to Jesus Christ. So, I guess that means that Mary was not even as blessed as we have been led to believe. She is not the mother of Jesus -- and her sons and daughters are not the siblings of Jesus.
Wow! Thank you, VP, for making this clear to all of us.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill

Wow, Bill. Your half Clavin/half Arminian slip is showing. You've even confused yourself.
