A brief follow up to "What is Church? How should we reconstitute it?"

 

I just wanted to put all the pieces I'd gather in this post together in a simple definition of Church. I'll unpack the terms in a follow up post.

The Church is a body of diverse and fallible people who are stewards of God’s grace.

That grace is found most completely in the person of Jesus Christ, who is crucified Lord, revealed by the Holy Spirit.

Our acts of stewardship of this gift consist of proclaiming the good news of Jesus as both crucified and Lord in word and deed, and worshipping together in ways that allow us to continue to trust in Jesus.
