Part A - Comment on Blog

My comment is about Dillon Power's blog. Dillon attended Brisbane City Church, which heads all ACC churches in Brisbane. I will compare his church, to my ACC church, River City Church.

Both churches are warm and welcoming and they both accommodate to all congregates of all ages. The services are both run the same way, and are pretty similar to other churches of the same denomination (ACC).

According to Dillon’s blog, the music that was played at his church was loud and out-there. This is different to River City as they use more tame songs and only a few instruments, which make their praise and worship time, seem more placid.

Brisbane City Church seems to share the same beliefs as River City Church, in that we can all be saved through the grace, love and sacrifices of God. Both churches also strongly believe that the Bible is the way of living, and everything that we do or need to accomplish in life, should be done in the Glory of God and done according to his will over your life.

Brisbane City Church seems to focus largely on forgiveness and having a clean heart full of the Holy Spirit, as Dillon explained how Pastor Wayne Alcorne was emphasising his opinions about having a clean heart by washing your sins away, whereas, River City Church, although they believe the same thing about washing sins away, focus on doing the good deeds that the Bible explains we should do if we are truly Christian.

Both churches are similar in their beliefs and ways the outreach to people and followers, but, and most probably due to size differences of the churches, have different goals for their church and their community.
