The BORE - Kicked Out of the Popcorn Cathedral of Rock By Another Emergent Church - CCV!
Ski/Glende Lies Exposed


Another emergent New Age church has grabbed the Big Picture movie theater from The BORE. The newspaper did not name the church, which seems to be buying the building. Anti-confessional entertainment churches are better at being anti-confessional entertainment centers.

God's justice is only beginning to show His wrath. The BORE decided to compete with 20 other WELS congregations in a rather small city, skimming members in the name of outreach and transforming lives. ELCA has the same non-confessional motto.

Therefore God is smiting WELS with an emergent church pushing The BORE out.

I would rather call the travesty Entertainment Evangelism. There is no evangelism involved, but Ski and Glende are quite entertaining.

Fame is fleeting, as the slave used to whisper to the Roman general during his triumph. Or, as we say today - it is a short trip from The Crab House to the outhouse.

Every story reveals a new lie about The BORE, which was supposedly started as a separate congregation from St. Peter's, Freedom. Wink. Wink.

The local paper says otherwise:

"The Core, a (sic) outreach ministry of St. Peter Lutheran Church in Freedom, has leased the building for the last 18 months and its final service there is Oct. 31."

St. Peter's and The BORE, both known for their deceitfulness, are verbally uniting the "two congregations," as one of its members stated in his blog.

Glende refused to answer questions by email. Perhaps he imagined the answer might be forwarded to others. Or maybe he was just hiding the truth.

Glende claims on his anonymous blog, derisively called Fake-O-Bod, that he is against deception and unionism.

The BORE arranged for new digs. I believe it might have been available when they took over their magnificent and expensive Popcorn Cathedral of Rock. The new location looks desolate and beaten up. A church was there before and failed? And then another operation failed? The BORE is failing. Everyone knows it.

"Meanwhile, The Core’s Sunday night worship service is moving to OuterEdge, a former church building at 303 N. Oneida St. that has been extensively restored and is now a multi-use facility/concert venue with a stage. The Core’s first service there is Nov. 7."

OuterEdge is emergent church, as far as I can tell. They have stage events scheduled, so will The BORE and OuterEdge merge? Both confess the truths of Craig Groeschel, I imagine.

I do not have this figured out. Appleton does seem as topheavy with emergents as it is with WELS.

Meanwhile, Deputy Doug Englebrecht is meeting with the Conference of Pussycats to see how they can silence the hapless, gutless Intrepid Lutherans - who are too busy to post comments. They have stuff to do.

Welcome to The BORE's new old building.

The building the CORE is moving into was the home of Mount Olive Lutheran Church (WELS) from the early 1920s until around 1980. This building is also one block from St. Pauls Lutheran (WELS). Also, the church that bought the movie theater and CORE's old home is Christ's Church of the Valley-- ccvappleton.com

Loving God passionately
Loving each other deeply
Loving our world to Jesus

At CCV we reject the doctrine of baptismal regeneration (that baptism in and of itself causes salvation).  We also don’t believe baptism is some afterthought of our salvation.  Rather, we affirm that baptism is the divinely ordained vehicle for us to express our personal faith and entrust our lives to Christ.  This is why scripture can affirm salvation by grace through faith apart from works and yet portray water baptism as the standard Biblical occasion when the repentant believer would receive from God the forgiveness of sins and enter into a new relationship with Christ on the basis of faith.



WHAT WE BELIEVE ABOUT COMMUNION


Communion (the Lord’s Supper) is one of the ways we worship God as we remember Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross and His resurrection from the grave.  CCV follows the example of Acts 20:7 and weekly engages in Communion.  We believe the bread and the juice are symbols of Jesus’ body and blood and that as a believer partakes, they proclaim the death of the Lord until He comes.  At CCV we do not subscribe to the idea that during Communion Jesus is re-sacrificed - but we do believe that through this sacrament, God meets with us in a unique and special way.

We ask that all who would partake of Communion with us at CCV be people who have surrendered their lives to Christ in faith and that they examine their hearts prior to partaking.

Welcome!


Welcome to Christ's Church of the Valley, an exciting non-denominational Bible believing church here in the Fox Cities!  I am so glad you have stopped by to check out our ministry!  My prayer is that you will be led more and more to encounter God in all of his power and greatness!
