Puritan Reformed Presbyterian Church

Wonderful message, brings back great memories.

This sermon so encouraged my drooping and weary soul. I can not contain the joy and thankfulness for this message and reminder to take our encouragement and strength in the Lord.

I was greatly encouraged by this message. Listened to it for the second time today. Grace and peace to you brother.

God obviously ordained I commence this series. Discovered this ministry via a FB comment. Thank you, Lord for using the pain of this pastor to minister to me and others.Thank you, Pastor Grant Van Leuven for remaining faithful amidst the pain - God is being glorified. God bless you and your loved ones.

This is the first time that I was moved to comment - after listening to hundreds of sermons on SermonAudio - of which many are good.

Such a sweet providence to be listening through this series and be on this one this morning. Much needed encouragement. Thank you!

Thanks for the message brother. I have been doing a study on the church in our adult SS class, and the way you handled the matter of the relationship between elders and members was very insightful. I am at the point in the study where this particular issue needs to be addressed. I want to be cautious in handlIng the issue (as I feel you were) in a way that speaks of the authority delegated to the office of elder by Christ, yet not appearing self serving or defensive. I appreciate the way you did this, and will definitely glean from your insights.

What a wonderful recap of the beginnings.

This sermon has been a very precious blessing and encouragement to me this morning. Thank You Lord Jesus and thank you Bro. Grant.

The greatness of this sermon is so over-whelmingly touching it rips my heart to threads. James 5v16 is very effective. A similar situation has occured with me. GOD BLESS YOU. I know the pain of words unfittly spoken. Cindy
