What is the Church?

Short answer

The Church is the global community of people who trust Jesus, gathered locally to worship, learn, serve, and love one another.

Deeper answer

A local church is where the universal Church becomes tangible. It is imperfect, sometimes messy, and necessary — Christianity is not designed to be a solo pursuit.

From the Bible

  • Acts 2:42–47
  • Hebrews 10:24–25
