"Jesus Is the Christ" - Part 1 of 4 in the series "Essential Church"

Jesus asks his disciples who the crowd thinks Jesus is. They spout off a variety of answers. Then Jesus asks the disciples, "Who do YOU say that I am?" Peter, ever the spokesman for the disciples, replies, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God." Jesus then tells his disciples that the confession that he is the Christ is the rock on which he will build his church.In this sermon, pastor John Rallison sets up the Essential Church series.
