    We learn three truths as we consider our Lord's dialogue with Simon Peter when He asked, "Who do you say that I am?"

    When Jesus asked this question of His disciples, it was Peter who provided the answer Jesus wanted to hear. In what Jesus said to Peter afterwards, we learn three valuable truths. 1.

    Why The Church Series

     | 22,526 views

    In our culture where the influence of the church is diminishing, why should we BE the church? The answer is found in the identity of Jesus and the promises he makes about the Kingdom he is establishing (the church).

    Why the Church I want to share some staggering statistics about church. Since the year 2000, more than 4000 churches in America have closed the doors to their buildings each year. That's more than 40,000 churches. At the turn of the 1900’s there were 27 churches to every 10,000 people. ...read more
