Sermon - Our Church Covenant, 2/17/19
Our Church Covenant
What does it mean to be a member of a church? Is it like a contract, where do’s and don’t are spelled out in legal detail? This week, Pastor Greg Byman rolled out the Bible’s blueprint for church membership as a covenant between fellow believers in Jesus Christ. God describes his church as a family, a fellowship, a flock and a body, and the follower of Jesus Christ does well to carefully consider the implications of these illustrations for how he relates to his fellow man both within the church and in the broader community.
Sunday March 10 after worship
11:30 AM to 3:30 PM
Complimentary Lunch Included
