The Church is not a building but rather a people, saved, filled by the Spirit, and set apart to fulfill God’s mission of advancing the kingdom of heaven on the earth. Jesus Christ is the head of the Church; the Church is Christ’s body. Participation in the body of Christ includes sharing the gospel, practicing the ordinances of baptism and communion, and submitting to the shepherding care of our pastors.
