Winter Fun in Richmond!
The West Broad Church of Christ is located in a southern city, but that does not mean we do not get the occasional snowstorm! More than a foot of snow recently blanketed the Richmond area, and the weather caused many of our members to remain trapped in their communities (forcing us to cancel Sunday services on 1/31). Well, after we "dug out," the fun began! Check out the pics below and catch a few glimpses of our winter fun in the Capital City! After you view the pictures, feel free to mark your calendars and join us this Sunday for a ...
Dynamic Praise and Worship in 2010!
The Lord offered a special invitation to all people (Matt. 11:28-30). Because we are his body (Col. 1:24), so do we. Christians at the West Broad Church understand that folks are facing challenges.

Well, February is the month reserved for the celebration of Black history. Indeed, African-Americans have much to celebrate in this country. God has blessed us to rise from the slave house to ...
Judgment: An Inconvenient Truth
We live in an age when persons want all the privileges but none of the responsibilities. This is particularly true regarding the Christian faith. Each week, millions of people hear well-crafted sermons on the goodness of God. The mercy of God. The bounty of God. The grace of God. These sermons punctuate all the wonderful ways that God will bless the lives of everyone who calls on him -- and even the lives of those who won't! Well, despite their popularity, such preachers sure don't preach like Jesus. It is true that the Lord spoke of the blessings upon those who ...
