Being the Church
Individual TopicsSteve Gregg
In "Being the Church," Steve Gregg discusses the modern definition of "church" and how it differs from the biblical definition. He emphasizes that the church is not merely an organization or building, but a community of genuine followers of Christ who care for and serve one another. Gregg argues that success in church should not be measured by the size of the congregation or an entertaining service, but by the practical ways in which people help each other. He encourages believers to use their unique gifts to serve the body of Christ and to prioritize relationships and community over religious meetings.
