i think it's great that people can meet together in christian fellowship without ever leaving their own home. maybe it's been done before, but it wouldn't hurt to make another chatroom.

i've been to a few non-denominational churches, and i'm starting to think they should be called ''a little bit less denominational than the rest'' churches. LOL. they all seem to be either wesleyan or calvinist in their doctrine. nevertheless, a christian chatroom that's open to all, regardless of one's denomination, could be a good thing. i'd probably visit.

I attend an online church. The online services include a video of the services held at our physical location in Corpus Christi, TX and a few of the people from around the US/world that attend the services log in to the chat room before, during, and after the services to discuss the message.

My church is called Real Life Fellowship. It is affiliated with the Southern Baptist Convention, but it isn't like any Baptist church I've ever known. I grew up in non-denominational churches and this one is even less "dogmatic" than some of those that had no doctrinal affiliation. The pastor focuses on practical teaching, not "preaching" and hasn't (in the year I've been attending at least) ever taught something that I thought was a denominational doctrine (e.g., such as dancing or drinking is wrong or hellfire/damnation sermons, etc...)...just relevant advice for improving my relationship with God and with other people.

The "online campus" has services at 7 PM Saturday and 11 AM Sunday (Central time) at http://www.reallifeconnect.org. Feel free to email me through my profile if you want more information.

There cannot be an online church, because real churches have admission policies permitting as members only those whose real life behaviour meets New Testament standards that cannot be assessed on the 'net (though very often people disqualify themselves by the way they write). One can have helpful chats online, of course, but it should never be forgotten that the internet is often used by people pretending to be what they are not, even for crime and other undesirable purposes, and one does not really know who one is talking to, or who is reading one's words. Churches are are for friendships with people one knows and trusts.

Non-denominational churches are those who a) tend not to exclude people from membership on the basis of finer points of theology, and b) have no central organisation telling them what to do. They think of themselves as simply Christians, not Baptists, Anglicans, Calvinists or whatever.

that's approximately it. A community of folk accrued around a shared non secular perception, political concept, social or cultural purpose can organise themselves in any way they see in high-quality condition interior the regulation; no distinction from a small enterprise, for occasion. yet there are constantly those, especially of the Left, who're uncomfortable with too lots citizen autonomy simply by fact it may sometime produce unfastened questioning and unfastened speaking persons beholden to a possibly oppressive mandatory authority. they're the existence blood of democracy even nonetheless lots their detractors demonise them.

I've never been able to understand what is meant by a non-denominational church. Surely "non-denominational" is its denomination.

Yes, it is next door to such a thing called "LAZINESS."
