In this episode, Caleb discusses the mission of the church with Bryan Estelle (PhD, The Catholic University of America) Professor of Old Testament at Westminster Seminary. Together, they tackle questions like: What is the mission of the church? How does the mission of the church effect the ministries of the church? What are the dangers of misunderstanding the mission of the church? How is what the cooperate church does similar to and different from what might be permissible and good for individual church members?
