A Place to Belong – Learning to Love the Local Church

Autor Megan Hill
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mai 2020
Christians know church is important, but sometimes it doesn't seem worth it. An eclectic assortment of people with differing personalities, political views, and parenting styles can make for awkward interactions and difficult connections. What's the point of putting in the tough work to build relationships? But the Bible says God's people ought to be bound together. It uses words likebeloved,brothers and sisters,saints, andfellow laborersto describe their mutual relationship in the church. In this book, Megan Hill answers a common question of churchgoers:What's so great about the church?With rich theology, practical direction, and study questions for group use, Hill encourages and equips both first-time visitors and regular members to delight in being a part of the local church--no matter how messy and ordinary it seems today. It is only when God's people begin to see one another as the Lord sees them that they will truly find a place to belong.

Descriere

"This book is positively, intelligently, and helpfully countercultural."
--Nancy Guthrie, author, Even Better than EdenSaints and Scoundrels in the Story of Jesus; and the Seeing Jesus in the Old Testament series

The church has more beauty--and more value--than we can see with physical eyes. Though our congregations are made up of ordinary people engaged in predictable practices, we are an outpost of heaven itself. The church is the people of God, the dwelling place of the Spirit, and the fullness of Christ. With rich theology and practical direction, A Place to Belong invites us to experience the local church in light of the Bible's testimony. Considering nine biblical terms for the church--such as belovedbrothers and sisterssaints, and gospel partners--this book equips us to love and serve one another. Whether we are new Christians or mature believers, learning to love the local church can become one of our greatest privileges and highest joys. The church is where we belong.
