Welcome to our Southeast church of Christ website!
We are grateful with you for making time to inquire and learn more about us. As members of the body of our Lord Jesus Christ, our primary goal is to faithfully serve and worship our God in accordance with His word so that all glory may be His through His son (1st Peter 4:11). Understanding that we are epistles of Christ that are known and read by all men, we strive to show that we have been written by the Spirit of the living God (2nd Corinthians 3:2-3).
We believe that the one true God is to be worshiped in spirit and in truth for that is the worship He seeks and approves (John 4:23-24). We offer praises to our God with the fruit of our lips in song without the use of mechanical instruments (Colossians 3:16, Hebrews 13:15). We seek to sing and pray with understanding so that all in attendance may be edified and grow in the grace and the knowledge of our God (1st Corinthians 14:15-17, 2nd Peter 3:17-18). Our prayers are offered in the name of Jesus Christ to the Father so that the Father may be glorified by them(John 14:12-14). Every first day of the week (Sunday) we partake in the Lord's supper in remembrance of Him by eating unleavened bread and drinking fruit of the vine (Matthew 26:26-29, Acts 20:7, 1st Corinthians 11:23-26) and we make a collection for the saints (1st Corinthians 16:1-2, 2nd Corinthians 9:6-8). Also in accordance to His will, we assemble in fellowship and study our God's word together admonishing and exhorting each other to stir up love and good works with the whole truth of our God (Hebrews 10:24-25). We diligently work to present ourselves without shame before our God and preach with the purpose to convince, rebuke, and exhort with God's word His truth (2nd Timothy 2:15, 4:1-2). Finally, we press forward and try with our best effort to be the light of this world trying to shine bright to help lead all those who seek God find and glorify Him (Matthew 5:14-16, Philippians 2:14-16).
Therefore, we hope this will shed some light as to who we are and how we worship in spirit and in truth to be found approved servants of God. All of us here at the Southeast church of Christ invite and encourage you to come worship with us so that God may be always praised!
We Must Obey God In The Right Way (12-8-19)
By Zachary Teasley Obedience is a learned conditioned response that we learn as children from our parents from the moment we are born into this world. We are taught what is acceptable behavior or right, like being patient and taking turns, and conversely, we are taught what is not acceptable…
Fighting the Good Fight (12-1-19)
By: Phil Hopkins Paul gave Timothy much good advice in his two letters. His desire for Timothy was for him to be a faithful gospel preacher. He clearly loved him and cared deeply for his soul. Paul had encountered many difficulties and struggles as he went about preaching the gospel…
The 5 Steps to Apostasy (11-24-19)
By: Orean Brown Some may ask what does apostasy meaning? Apostasy in the bible means to intentionally fall away or withdrawal, from the faith. All throughout the bible we see examples of apostasy, and how God dealt with those that choose to fall away. Jeremiah 6:10-16 is a great example…
Buy the Truth and Sell It Not! (11-17-19)
By Zachary Teasley Since the beginning of time and the creation of mankind, God has given us the opportunity to be reconciled back to Him as we consciously decide to submit to His words of truth which can save us and make us prosperous in this world. 1st Timothy 2:2-3…
Godly Patience, Longsuffering (11-10-19)
By: Phil Hopkins One of the more common requests that people make is to have more patience. We all realize the importance of patience in dealing with others. When life gets stressful, when we are under pressure from others, even though we know that we should be patient, the various…
Jesus Paid It All (11-3-19)
By Zachary Teasley Jesus Christ the Savior of the World paid the ultimate price on Calvary’s Cross; He shed his precious blood and gave His life as a ransom for our sins and paid the debt that we were unable to pay. Many of us are willing to take risks…
Self-Control (10-27-19)
By: Phil Hopkins In the book of Galatians, we read about the fruit of the spirit. If you please all of the flavors of one bearing this fruit. Galatians 5:22 “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 meekness, self-control; against such there…
Sin the Tragedy of the World (10-20-19)
By Zachary Teasley Society today is becoming progressively worse as far as moral standards are concerned. The once strong moral standards are breaking down and deteriorating right before our eyes. Many perceptions, ideals, activities, and lifestyles which were previously considered sociably unacceptable is now the norm and is no longer…
Patterns (10-13-19)
By Phil Hopkins As I look about in the world, I see planning in almost all that we do. A seamstress will use a pattern to make a garment, the builder uses plans for a construction project. If we buy an airline ticket, we buy it with a particular destination…
The Preacher’s Paradigm (10-6-19)
By: Obed Pineda “And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold. But he who endures to the end shall be saved.” (Matthew 24:11-12) When the Word of God is examined carefully in its entirety, the parallels that can be found in its sacred pages between both…
