Of the Rites and Ceremonies of Churches | Episode 27

Randy and Andy talk about a Methodist missionary who was influenced by Mahatma Gandhi and then was a major influence on Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
 
Article XXII — Of the Rites and Ceremonies of Churches
It is not necessary that rites and ceremonies should in all places be the same, or exactly alike; for they have been always different, and may be changed according to the diversity of countries, times, and men's manners, so that nothing be ordained against God's Word. Whosoever, through his private judgment, willingly and purposely doth openly break the rites and ceremonies of the church to which he belongs, which are not repugnant to the Word of God, and are ordained and approved by common authority, ought to be rebuked openly, that others may fear to do the like, as one that offendeth against the common order of the church, and woundeth the consciences of weak brethren.
Every particular church may ordain, change, or abolish rites and ceremonies, so that all things may be done to edification.

Being Christ-Like | Episode 26

Pastors Randy and Andy talk about how conversion isn’t about becoming more religious. It’s about becoming increasingly more Christ-like as we wake up to the presence of Christ in and around us.
 
Article XXI — Of the Marriage of Ministers
The ministers of Christ are not commanded by God's law either to vow the estate of single life, or to abstain from marriage; therefore it is lawful for them, as for all other Christians, to marry at their own discretion, as they shall judge the same to serve best to godliness.
