Every church has problems, failures, omissions and offences. Every congregation is made up of sinners. Every church leader suffers the vulnerabilities of humanity. None of this denies the truth that the Church is Jesus' Bride. She is not always pretty, but she is always the Bride. Today Dr. John looks at the frailties of church. He reminds us what is commended by Jesus and what needs to change. The good news is that change is possible. Jesus is preparing His Bride for heaven.

The Church: The global pandemic had impact in countless ways. One obvious consequence for the Church was the number of believers who got comfortable with privatized faith. They went to church in their living rooms and are content to stay even after the doors of churches are open again! So is going to church optional? Do we need to connect with a local congregation? In this two-week series, Dr. John teaches on the priority and functions of the Church. He will demonstrate why the Church remains God's priortiy for His mission on earth.
