Below you will find a few links we think worth your attention;  as we find others, we'll add them.

Eastside Christian Church

This is the main site for Eastside Christian Church (of which we are a ministry).  A recently redesigned web site, it's worth a look if you're looking for a church in the North Orange County area.

Also, one of our Eastside members, Becky Java, has started a ministry of her own.  The web site is still under development, so bear with us in this.  You can see Becky's ministry at Mighty God Ministries.

 

Christian Classics Ethereal Library

OK - if you only had one site on the web as a reference for a teacher, this would be the site.  The only things you'll find on this site are the greatest minds of Christianity.  Need an example?  Let's consider those whose names start with "A":  Augustine, Aquinas, Albert the Great, Athanasius, Anselm, Arminius and the ever-popular Anonymous.

 

Sometimes we get a query concerning patristics - the writings of the early church fathers.  Most of these are well contained in CCEL, with the disadvantage that the translations often imitate King James English.  Modern translations are available here.  SVS is St. Vladimir's Seminary, a monastery and seminary in Manhattan, New York.  They don't make it easy to find a good selection of patristics; your best bet is to search by the name of the church father you might be interested in.  Chrysostom would be a good start.  Iraneus is another one; and don't miss Athanasius' On the Incarnation of the Word of God.  The forward is by C. S. Lewis, and that's worth the price of the book alone.

For those of you who are interested in the accuracy of the Scriptures, this web site, "Interpreting Ancient Manuscripts", offers an excellent introduction to the subject - in layman's terms.  A more detailed site can be found offered by the Brethren Churches, titled Comparing Translations.

 

Occasionally the question comes up, "Where can I get some good Bible study software?"  Here's a dandy answer.  E-Sword is the personal ministry of the author of the software - and it's free.  Considering that you can spend several hundred on the commercial packages, that's quite a deal.  There are a few add-ons that he has available for a modest fee (most notably for the New American Standard Version of the Bible and the NIV).
