Called Out: The Role Of The Church

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022

Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, and no one else (Matthew 16:13-19). We have strayed from what the Scriptures teach about the church's purpose and responsibilities and instead allowed the world's opinions take precedence over what we are to be and do.

When we hear the word "church", most of us think of a building or membership in a particular denomination with standards, beliefs, and guidelines for worship, order, the reading and use of Scripture, and sermons. The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more

Character Study Of Leah Series
