GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH, PETERSBURG, VA.

SUNDAY SERVICES AT GRACE BAPTIST CHURCH ON THE 12 TH OF AUGUST WERE A BLESSING TO THIS PREACHER. THE SUNDAY SCHOOL WAS ESPECIALLY BENIFICIAL AS I SPOKE ON "THE SEEKER CHURCHES" OF AMERICA, CHURCHES FOLLOWING THE LINE OF RICK WARREN AND THE PURPOSE DRIVEN CHURCH WHICH "TENDS TO PREACH A HALF-BAKED, WORLDLY MIXTURE THAT LURES POEPLE INTO A SLICK POP MOVEMENT THAT APPEALS TO PEOPLE'S WORLDLY SENSES AND NEED TO BE PART OF SOMETHING BIG AND SUCCESSFUL." THIS KIND OF CHURCH IS SOMETIMES REFERRED TO AS "CLUB CHURCHS", THE KIND THAT OFTEN ARE VISITED FOR GOOD TIMES RATHER THAN A LEARNING BIBLICAL EXPERIENCE. BOTH SERVICES AM AND PM WERE WELL ATTENDED WITH THE OLD FASHIONED ALTAR FULL ON BOTH OCCASSIONS. IF YOU ARE IN THE RICHMOND/PETERSBURG AREA ON THE LORD'S DAY BE SURE AND DROP BY GRACE BAPTIST YOU WILL ENJOY THE PREACHING OF THE WORD OF GOD WHICH IS PREEMINENT!
