Most new converts beg for more services than are scheduled. Who moved?

Do you see that day approaching?

Amen. God has much to say to the saints that they might become grounded and settled. Paul laboured to that end forever. Ther eis more than knowing how to get saved. MUCH MORE! 95% of the bible is beyond what saves us.

Three times a week is alright. I would say that is Max, though. We have services here twice on Sunday and once on Wed night.

Fact is, we need more than once a week for sure due to the necessity of coming into maturity through teaching, and the fact that we are bombarded with the world in all it's barefacedness every single day of our lives. Three times a week is not too much in that light. But some folks see work pressing in too hard for them, though.

In circles where there is no in-depth teaching beyond Acts 2:38, three services are too much.
