Ask Dr. E

Should The Lack of Oversight in Non-Denominational Churches Concern us?


Listen Later

Full Q: I’d like to visit a denominational church such as a PCA church or an Anglican Church - both Protestant churches. We go to a bible teaching church right now but for some reason I’m concerned about non-denominational churches not having oversight or connected to a larger church body for direction. I understand having elders but just feel having a mothership if you will church with layers may be better. If we go to a bible teaching church now, perhaps I should be grateful even with my doubts of non-denominational?

Further to my question about possibly leaving a non-denominational church (albeit scripture taught) and looking at a conservative Protestant church like the PCA or Anglican think institutional unity is important. Ultimately my unity lies in Jesus and his followers as a whole but is there something important scripturally about having an earthly unified church. Is there something scripturally important or pointed about being with believers in a unified earthly church setting? On one hand every few years there occurs a split and is self perpetuating when they don't agree then just split even though they yearn for unity.
