"You are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God" - l Peter 2 v 9
God's amazing gospel gives this world hope. Because of Jesus, Christians enjoy a new identity that transforms their lives. God has chosen to love us and call us together to worship and serve Him. The church is God's delight. He has chosen us and wants to bless us. As we live our lives for Christ, God intends to show people what true community and belonging looks like.
Each week, we are looking at different areas of church life and ministry. How does church work? What does God want for it? How do I fit in? God's church is meant to be a united, dynamic community, a living message speaking into our dark and fractured world.
Here is the outline of the studies we followed. You can listen to each of the talks in the series and also view the notes from each week.
