I Believe In The Holy Catholic Church Series

Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 10, 2012

The church of Jesus Christ is catholic, i.e. "universal". All of every age, race, and station stand in need of the means of grace which it alone supplies.

Contributed by Sean Harder on Feb 19, 2014

One of my questions for us today is whether or not we see our Christianity as an affliction, and can we relate to the identity of being afflicted because of the mystery of Christ that we have been exposed to?
