"Cultural Christianity" in Brevard County? | A Conversation w/ Central Baptist Church of Melbourne

In this episode we invite on Pastor Lucas Almeida of Central Baptist Church of Melbourne. Central is a Sourthern Baptist church located on Country Club Road right next to the Florida Tech campus.

The conversation covers Central Baptist's new-traditional liturgical style that emphasizes the importance of singing, the reading of scripture, and public prayer alongside the preaching of the word during the Lord's service.

We also discuss Central Baptist's outreach to the FIT campus and the surrounding community, and Pastor Lucas shares his perspective on the mission of the Greater Church in Brevard and what all churches in Brevard MUST do...
