Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another – and all the more as you see the Day approaching. HEBREWS 10:23–25 (NIV)

BACK TO BASICS: THE CHURCH

In such a fearful world, we need a fearless church. CS LEWIS

Throughout history ‘the church’ has changed. Even today the church looks different depending on where you are: the buildings are different – some built hundreds of years ago; others are a person’s home or under a tree. the services look different – some based in tradition, others are loud and lively; some have organists and others have a full rock band. the church experience feels different – some are more structured and predictable whilst others have lights and screens or may be more group-discussion based.

However, the church isn’t a building, a look or a feel. The church is a people, a community. It’s you and it’s me!

This week, may the distractions of the world fade to the background and may you see clearly the church as God intended it… His people, gathering together, in fellowship for His glory!
