Over 70 Charlotte Churches of All Denominations Join Unity Sermon Series on the Gospel
(Worthy News) – Over 70 churches in Charlotte, North Carolina, have come together to declare in a unified sermon series what they are for, as opposed to what they are against.
“This whole thing started for us just out of relationship,” said Chris Payne, the senior pastor of two vibrant churches that recently merged to become one congregation, in a phone interview with The Christian Post.
Payne, 41, leads New Charlotte Church, which he and his wife started in their living room eight years ago, and Church at Charlotte, a 50-year-old congregation in the city.
“We wanted to let people know what we were for. A lot of times people know what the Church is against, but not really what we are for together.”
“And we’re for the Gospel; for the Church, capital-C church; we’re for each other, our neighbors; and we’re for our city.” [ Source: Christian Post (Read More…) ]
