In the final week of the Alpha series, Pastor Paul Watson teaches on one of the most misunderstood but essential parts of following Jesus: the Church. Many people admire Jesus but struggle with the idea of church—often because of hurt, disappointment, or confusion. But Scripture shows that the church was God’s idea, not ours.

The church is more than a building or a weekly event; it is a family you join, a body where everyone has a role, a community on mission, a place of spiritual transformation, and the bride Jesus deeply loves. When the church is healthy, united, and filled with the Holy Spirit, nothing on earth reflects God’s hope more clearly. This message invites us to rediscover the beauty, purpose, and calling of the Church—and to fully participate in God’s plan to transform the world.
