Why Church? | God’s Design | Pastor Terry Nelson

Are you living with your bags packed, or are you here to stay? ABOUT THE MESSAGEIn this powerful sermon, Pastor Terry Nelson explores the divine purpose behind the church and its parallels with family. Both the family and the church are God's design, requiring God-ordained leadership and/or true depth and meaning, both marriage and church require commitment. Far too many people today try to attend church with their suitcase packed and wonder why their lives are void the benefits that come along with being truly connected to the body of Christ. Tune in to be challenged on what it looks like to 'put skin in the game' and reflect on your level of commitment to God's design for your life! ABOUT JESUSIf you want to learn more about who Jesus is and what it means to have a relationship with Him, we would love to help you on that journey: https://www.thechurch.fm/jesus For a deeper dive into The Word of God on a daily basis check out our Free Ancient Paths Daily Devotional: https://www.thechurch.fm/ancient-paths WHO WE AREWe believe that the goal of every Christian is To Be Conformed Into the Image of Jesus Christ, and a relationship with Jesus as well as being involved in a healthy church community are both important to achieving that goal.
