How to Cast Vision for a Church Building

Church Buildings
Church Planting

Church buildings are a polarizing possibility. Some people love buildings. Other people hate them. Having been mobile now for 13 years, most of Coram Deo’s congregation is bullish about the potential of permanent space. But in earlier years, our church had a strong “anti-building” sentiment. And both points of view are always present within any congregation. So when it comes time for a church to pursue property, leaders must lead wisely and strategically, grounded in theological conviction.

Discussion

Sharper Iron will go offline Saturday evening 7/18/26 for upgrades.

The site is getting a visual design refresh, some new features, moving to version 11 of the Drupal platform, and also moving to an upgraded server instance.

The work could take a day or two. Most should be seeing the new site by Monday 7/20.

We’ll go offline around 9 PM Central 7/18.

… not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.
