Beaverton Grace Bible Church

I was listening to the radio and then looked it up on line.

A single mom leaves a church because she doesnt like what she hears. The members of that church will not talk with her anymore. They will turn away if they see her.

She then goes on line and starts a blog like Greasespot. The church sues her for defamation. She wins.

Does this sound like anything you know.

Another sad case. Glad it got thrown out - she got costs against the church!

And not only the church that abused this woman.

At a "splinter group" led by that leader's son ... the son is facing charges of sex abuse of children in the congregation.

Should we invite her over here, for coffee and cake?

From BGBCs statement of faith:

V. We Believe In Spiritual Authority.

God Himself has established order in every area of our lives, and the church is no exception. God in Scripture has clearly given us the structure of authority for the church. Christ is the head of the church and He mediates His rule through the shepherding of godly elders (pastors) (5). These elders (pastors), having a high view of God and Scripture, being devoted to the preaching, teaching and practicing of sound doctrine, and being examples of personal holiness before the congregation, are responsible to lead the church. The Bible teaches that the congregation is accountable to the elders (pastors) and that the elders (pastors) are accountable to God. Therefore, all decision-making authority is vested in the elders (pastors), who shepherd the church (6).
