Who We Are
The Central Shelby church of Christ is a
group of Christians whose goal it is to put God first in everything we
do. To that end, we attempt to pattern the work, worship, and
organization of this local church after the New Testament example of
local churches. We are nondenominational, not being a part of any
man-made organization.
We desire to promote a spirit of
"family," fellowship, and unity at Central Shelby -- but never at the
expense of the truth of God's word. Our unity is based upon the word of
God. We believe that true harmony can only exist when people are united
upon the firm foundation of the Bible. Truth cannot be compromised
(Galatians 1:6-9; John 14:15; 2 Timothy 4:1ff).
An Invitation To Our
Services
We invite you to visit our
worship assembly. You would be our honored guest. At these assemblies,
you would find a church that is gathered for the primary purpose of
praising the Lord. He is worthy of great praise and adoration! In these
assemblies, we sing a mixture of modern and "traditional" a cappella
spiritual songs (Colossians 3:17). We also pray (Acts 12:5; 1
Corinthians 14:15). We hope that our prayers are heartfelt, meaningful,
and offered with the proper spirit of awe, respect, and love for God.
Too, we take the Lord's Supper on Sundays (Acts 20:7). We do so in order
to memorialize Jesus' death upon the cross (Matthew 26:26-30). Also, on
the first day of the week, we take an offering (1 Corinthians 16:1-2; 2
Corinthians 9:6-7). Many trivialize this portion of the worship service,
but we try not to minimize any part of the assembly. Each is equally
important. Finally, Bible based lessons are extended during the worship
service.
We are not perfect, nor do we claim to
be. We are simply Christians striving to do God's will, to draw closer
to Him, and to be Christ-like in our daily lives. Our plea can be summed
up in the wise words of Solomon: "Fear God, and keep His commandments.
For this is the whole duty of man" (Ecclesiastes 12:13). |
