The Narrow Path Ministries

Hi T.K., I’m with you in struggling through this whole “faith in healing” issue. What does it look like in real life? Sometimes it’s easier to figure out what it doesn’t look like (through these extreme examples), but what does the James 5:15 “prayer offered in faith” practically look like in operat...

Thanks for all the resources, Jared! You have a real gift of boiling things down and helping guys like me get some much-needed basic introductions.

By His Grace,

Is it possible that there are (at least) two types of apostles found in the early church? One being the “most eminent” apostles (II Corinthians 11:5; 12:11) – which would refer to the twelve plus Paul? And the other being those sent out as ambassadors to the nations? This second type seems to be all...

Opens up so many different doorways to explore. For some time, I’ve been trying to figure out the important principles that Paul used in ...

Hi Christopher, Wonderful response! I totally agree with the heart of what you wrote. (I’m just sorry you had to use your break time to write it!) Let me try and address some of your questions or points: However, I want to ask you what you think the purpose of leadership “authority” is and what the ...

It sounds to me like the focus is on getting people to attend their church. I guess it strikes me as too narrow of an objective. I agree with what Danny wrote. Seems like the main goal is "making church-attenders" instread of "making disciples." It is too narrow ... but I think it might also be tak...

Paidon, You can answer for me on this any day! :D Sure appreciate your input. When I first read Christopher’s response, I thought, “Whoa! I don’t remember that being in there!” (Thought maybe I’d hit a senility bump or something.) I relaxed a bit when I realized it’s in the KJV but not my NAS. Figur...
