Re: The Church is Under Attack!
They are their own worst enemy. A recent post, referencing a c of C study, indicated the c of C is losing approximately 900 members per month and closing 4-5 congregations per month.

The Church is Under Attack!
I imagine a lot of you experienced the fear, the Sunday morning preaching how the church was always under attack? In my experience, growing up in the cofc in southern California, the church was always under attack from the denominations and even more so from the other cofc down the street or in the ...

Re: How did you get into the church of Christ? SURVEY
My Mom was 7th Day Adventist and became a member of the cofc around 22 years of age. My Father was a Methodist but joined the church due to my Mom's influence, all before I was born.
