Christ is the life. Church is the living.

Welcome to the church in Toledo, an organic and vital body of believers consecrated unto Him, living out His eternal purpose on this earth day by day, moment by moment. 

WHO WE ARE

In every generation, there have been those who, in answering the Lord’s specific and intimate calling, have stood firm as a testimony for Him. In this era, the testimony is not that of individual spiritual men, but of the corporate expression and outlived realization of Christ through His church. We are grateful to be those ones to whom He has revealed His eternal plan and His move on the earth in this age. As the world changes rapidly, we find ourselves looking more deeply unto our precious Lord, the source of all administration, to rejoice and prepare together with all the saints for His coming.

LITERATURE

What is the true service?

And Melchizedek the king of Salem brought out bread and wine. Now he was priest of God the Most High. (Gen. 14:18) Many Christians today attend “church service” on Sunday morning, faithfully setting aside an hour or two each week...

Free fall into God’s great will

Faith isn’t about dipping a toe in to test the waters; neither is it about analyzing possible outcomes to make the best decision. It’s a free fall — letting go of every hesitation, every condition, and wholly receiving the...

The way to God’s victory

There is a hymn among us that we love to sing, with a resounding and overcoming chorus that goes, “Mingle, mingle, hallelujah!” You may not recognize the words, but you’d probably recognize the tune, borrowed from the storied and...

A remnant for His retaliation

God created the universe to have a place to manifest Himself, His glory. But far back in time before humans existed on the earth, God was betrayed (Isa. 14:13). He has an enemy who seeks to steal His glory,...

“Here, there is a realm, and this realm has never been individual. When we come together, we move like an army. Whatever we do, it’s done completely, efficiently. Everyone’s cooperation is unbelievably precise. You won’t find this kind of unity in any company or religious organization. This is because we are not only leading each one’s heart, but also each one’s life. We are same-souled because we share the same Spirit. That’s just the way the church is produced.”

JOURNAL

“And they continued steadfastly in the teaching and the fellowship of the apostles, in the breaking of bread and the prayers. And fear was upon every soul; and many wonders and signs took place through the apostles. And all those who believed were together and had all things common; And they sold their properties and possessions and divided them to all, as anyone had need. And day by day, continuing steadfastly with one accord in the temple and breaking bread from house to house, they partook of their food with exultation and simplicity of heart, Praising God and having grace with all the people. And the Lord added together day by day those who were being saved.”

My “first communion”

Like many people who grew up in Catholic school, I remember my first communion. I recall taking classes to learn about the Eucharist, the fear of going in to make my first confession to the priest behind the confessional...

Resolution in the new year

New Year's Day brings most people to a point of introspection — reflecting on what we’ve learned, how we've disappointed ourselves or others, the relationships we’ve lost or gained, and all sorts of resolutions for change. Yet, like the...

From a thick cloud to a heaven of clearness

When we are buried in our daily routines, handling one issue after another, our vision often becomes blurry to the Lord. We are hemmed in by the details of improving things and getting better, fighting for ourselves. But recently...
