I interviewed Lesley Rhodes, who has been a regular attender at this church for 13 years. Lesley volunteers regularly at the church and was an employee of this church for 10 years. Rhodes suggested that I look for the churches statement of faith in their website. According to this website, “the Evangelical Free Church of America’s statement of faith includes their belief in one God as three divine persons; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

They believe that Adam and Eve were created by God and sinned; leaving humans as sinners by nature, who can only be redeemed through God’s saving work in Jesus Christ. They believe that Jesus Christ is fully man and fully God, conceived by…

Entropy When I woke up that Saturday morning, I knew something would go wrong. I was planning a trip to San Antonio with my best friend, Elizabeth. First, my car wouldn't start. When we finally got the car started, we noticed that the air conditioner was not working, This is a major problem, especially if you live in Texas. We decided to keep going and to just roll the windows down to get some fresh air. Not even ten minutes after doing so, it began to rain. This did not slow us down at all. When we finally arrived in San Antonio, sweaty and exhausted, we stopped at a nearby gas station to fuel up. When we came back from paying, we noticed that the car ahead of us had backed out into my car, and in return left a huge indention in my front bumper. Furious and outraged, I…

There are many questions that come to mind when looking at the significant roles denominationalism affects the Christian faith. We see this growing trend of doctrinal beliefs that cause for many of our African American Churches to worship separately on a weekly bases for Sunday Morning Worship Services and Mid-Week Bible Studies. Through the incorporation of doctrinal beliefs that govern our churches making for divisions within the Christian faith, we also find division and difference within that denomination also. I ask myself this question, how and why there are so many denominations founded and why are there so many sub-cultures or denominational split within them if we are the Body of Christ and one church?…
Church was a worldwide thing at one point. It controlled international relations, it was the patron of the arts, it taught the ethics of family life, medical practice and healing were among its functions, and education and learning were sponsored almost entirely by it. As time went on, the church separated from politics and education.…
