Useful Links and References:

Since starting to set up this website, I have been very pleased to find a wide variety of sources of Christian reflection, discussion, and references on the internet.

Unfortunately, this variety of views can be confusing for people who want an answer to the simple question of “what Christians believe?” But these links may help you to dig deeper into questions of faith, and to resolve questions about problems with the modern church. 

If you have other links you would like to share, please enter them in the comments below.

Worshiptainment

more . . .

Matthew Everhard has produced a series of YouTube videos warning about this trend, and a book entitled, “Worshiptainment; The Modern Church’s Golden Calf”.

An early pioneer of the trend was Robert Schuller, with his Crystal Cathedral and the Hour of Power television broadcast, but this led to some bizarre examples which he shows in those videos. I think these examples may have some value when used as outreach to catch people’s attention, but when used as worship they are a barrier to hearing truth.

Kent Hovind – Why use the King James Version: YouTube

more . . .

Regardless of whether Ken’s presentation style appeals to you, the content of his discussion about the confusing array of modern bible versions is worth hearing. And his case is confirmed by William Barclay’s note to his commentary on John (pp 290 – 292 of volume 2, 1975) concerning the omission from “early manuscripts” of John 7:53 -8:11 on the woman taken in adultery.
