Show notes

This Sunday, Pastor Jon kicked off our Fall Sermon Series, Making Sense of Church, by asking the question: Why do we still bother with the Church? The reality is that the Church is a dysfunctional family, but it is still key to the mission of Jesus being carried out in the world, and it cannot be disregarded. We cannot make excuses for the failures of the Church, but also cannot deny the beauty and redemption it has brought; the only question that remains is which future of the Church will you tell with your life? The Church is God's idea, and it has endured through every time and place since its inception. You need the Church for your growth, and the Church needs you, faithfully living as Jesus' hands and feet in your context, believing this can be the Church's finest hour, not its greatest failure.
