Bible Belt Presbyterian
Puritan Board Freshman
Hi all,
This is my first discussion thread and is in part the reason I joined the forum.
In the town in which I live now for college (Starkville, MS) there is a "church" where there is not a pastor present and preaching. I have not attend this place but what I gather from talking to people, there is simply a video of a pastor from Jackson, MS. Looking at their website, it is describe as "one church with multiple campuses" and "Each site has Pastors that serve the local community of believers". My question is simply on the practice of using only "sermoncast" or a live video of a pastor in another town. The reason I enclose the word church in apostrophes is that I didn't know if they would be considered a church or simply people meeting to watch a video. I am referring to the spiritual church rather than the brick and mortar church.
I personally feel like they should have a pastor present and that pastor should be the one preaching. This is not backed by anything other than what I am accustom to so I wanted to inquire here and get opinions from people who are more knowledgeable and qualified than me.
