Being An Authentic Church

April 14 – May 19, 2024

Russian forces destroyed hundreds of churches, as have many empires through the ages, but they did not destroy the church. The church is sometimes called a building but not just a building. The church is also a charitable organization but not just a charity. It’s more than a social group, voting block or institution. It’s the living, growing body of Christ comprised of all who follow Jesus Christ as Lord.

“Congregations across America are weak because many of us church members have lost the biblical understanding of what it means to be a part of the body of Christ….He [God] placed us in churches to serve, to care for others, to pray for leaders, to learn, to teach, to give, and, in some cases, to die for the sake of the gospel.” In this study, we will rediscover what it means to be an authentic church and how you play a role.
