At Timberland Drive we are very concerned about these trends. However, we have a deeper perspective on these matters. We believe that much of what is going on among churches of Christ today is a direct result of loose attitudes toward Bible authority that were begun with innovations in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Some are sure that the problems among brethren are brand new, but we are just as sure that they are nothing but the “reaping” that comes with “sowing” (Gal. 6:7). Mistakes were made in the past that are bearing bitter fruit today. |

No question is more important than this. We make many important decisions in life regarding matters such as education, marriage, and occupation. But none is as transcending as that which affects our soul's eternity (Matt. 16:26).

"Then He said to them all, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will save it. For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and is himself destroyed or lost?"
Luke 9:23-25
