Pastor Rick has been talking to us about characteristics of church leaders and mature followers of Jesus Christ. Today he talks about qualities godly leaders should avoid (I Timothy 3:3).

Pastor Rick continues his series on the church and characteristics of mature church leaders as given in I Timothy 3:2. But these aren't characteristics of just church leaders but of all mature believers. Last week he talked about what it means to be above reproach and that for believers who are married, their affections are centered on their spouse. This week, he continues through the rest of the verse.

Pastor Rick discusses what is the church, what is the difference between the universal Church and the local church, what are the responsibilities of the leadership of the church, and what are the benefits of being committed to a local church. Can a believer be a healthy follower of Jesus Christ and not be committed to a local body of believers?

Is there forgiveness? Is there hope? God still offers His people forgiveness -- come and see!
