Many Christians would say the church is different from other types of communities, but they couldn’t tell you exactly why. They couldn’t say what sets the church apart from every other organization on the planet. Over the course of four weeks we will explore the essence of biblical community, looking to God’s Word for answers to some basic questions about the church. Being part of the people of God means far more than attending a weekly worship service. It makes a claim on our identity and the entire orientation of our life. The church is a community like no other.
