Understand–countless ideas, images, thoughts, perceptions, beliefs and emotions come into people’s minds whenever they hear the word CHURCH. Now, some of these ideas, images, thoughts, perceptions, beliefs and emotions are: good, true, hopeful and helpful, but others are: bad, wrong, false and destructive.

What is the church? Why is it here? Why does it matter? Is it all that important? What should it look like? What is your role and responsibility in it? Should we even care? And… (the most important question) where do we go to find the answers to those questions and many others about the church? To our culture? To a pastor or a church leader?
