Are you comforted by the Church? Are you irritated by the Church? Does the thought of walking into those doors on a Sunday morning bring you peace, or does it bring you anxiety? Maybe you've been hurt by the Church or people who attend your Church.

Societal pressures, frustration caused by bureaucracy and abuse within churches, and the negative perception of institutions today result in pain and confusion around the idea of "church."

In this podcast episode, I sat down to talk to Christa Petzold, author of Gathered by Christ: The Overlooked Gift of Church, to speak with her about her book.

In this episode, we talk about:

The Gifts of the Church How much Jesus loves the Church The Church can never be destroyed How Jesus sees the Church The comfort and the blessings of the Church
