What! Church! Series

What is the Church about? Why do we go to church? The Church has a mission, it has a goal. Jesus calls us to represent the kingdom of God. We are to be living messengers noted by Jesus prayer in Jn. 17: 23, "May they be brought to complete unity to let the world know that you sent me."
