Deep dives
Understanding the Essence of Church
The concept of church is often misconstrued as merely a building or a two-hour event on Sundays. Many people tend to focus on the activities or aesthetics of a church service—like the music style or the coffee served—rather than the deeper relational aspects and mission of the church community. This perspective limits the understanding of what it means to be part of the church, which is intended to be a living, breathing body of believers. Instead of fixating on the Sunday routine, individuals are encouraged to reflect on their roles within the church community and consider whether they are consumers of church services or genuine contributors to the work of God.
