Ernie Johnson speaking at Community Bible Church

[King]

FYI - Just got notice that Ernie Johnson (TNT) is going to be speaking at Community Bible Church off Gold Canyon/1604 this Sunday at 9:15 and 11a. Just putting it out there for those who wanted to check it out. No cost.

2477 N Loop 1604 - 78232

I obviously can't attend, but is it about his medical ordeal? I'd like to hear it if it is. Not that I can, but just sayin'...

[marini martini]

Who's Ernie Johnson, and why is he so holy?

[King]

I'm not sure what it's about, actually. We just found out about it the other day. Evidently there was a deal made between one of the staff members and EJ - and he said that if SA made the conference finals, he'd speak.

But, I know he's a strong Christian, and he's spoken about it in relation to his ordeal before, so it'd make sense.

Sorry? Ordeal? What ordeal? I got an ordeal, in fact, a couple, but you won't see me on the pulpit of CBC! LOL

Not sure what you're getting at. Don't go see him, then. It'll probably still go on without you.

[marini martini]

:lmao

I know it will, I just want to know what his big ordeal is? I just want to know if it's bigger than mine. If not, I might be a "circuit rider"! Sheesh:downspin:

He's sponsored by the pulpits he visits, disability, & medicaid!

I'm a member so I will attend. For those who don't attend, my sig has a link to the CBC website where you can view a recording of the past weeks message.

[MoSpur]

I might go listen to him.

I didn't know he is a Christian. That is awesome!

I spent my first year-or-so as a Christian at Community Bible Church. It was much smaller then.

I've been a Christian for most of my life and have been a member of CBC since 2001. It's a very good church and I highly recommend it for newcomers.

[King]

CBC is growing at a ridiculous rate. It's one of the 40 fastest growing churches in the country.

[Don Quixote]

I agree. CBC is a great church for a new Christian, or someone who is not a Christian but is interested in becoming a part of "the household of faith." One word for these people is "seeker."

When I was there, I was never sure about some of the church's beliefs beyond "the basics." I don't recall them taking a position on Calvinism (a wise move!), or spiritual gifts (what they are and how they are expressed), or what exactly constitutes the church. As a result, I'm not sure that the members knew what they believed either. But Robert Emmitt is a good pastor and cares about his people, and tends to preach very application-oriented "topical" sermons. So it's a good church. I would recommend it.

i've had my theological issues with the church, but overall it's where my wife and kids are being fed the most. To me Sunday is just 1 out of 7 days of christianity, so "topical" is ok. I'll attend the river city service by myself in the morning and cbc later in the day with my family when I feel I need more than "topical".

nevertheless, robert is a terrific guy and i have a lot of wonderful friends at cbc. btw, cbc has totally help me get closer to christ.
