The Church

Part 2 of 6: "Mere Christianity"

What if the church is more than just a place you go on Sundays? What if it’s the very means through which God is accomplishing His purpose in the world? Join us as we uncover the deeper reality of the church—why it matters, why it’s essential, and why it’s far more than you ever imagined.

“In the same way the Church exists for nothing else but to draw men into Christ, to make them little Christs. If they are not doing that, all the cathedrals, clergy, missions, sermons, even the Bible itself, are simply a waste of time. God became Man for no other purpose. It is even doubtful, you know, whether the whole universe was created for any other purpose. It says in the Bible that the whole universe was made for Christ and that everything is to be gathered together in Him."
