About this listen

We unpack about the difference between a Bible study and a church, emphasizing how the seven marks of a local body of Christ set it apart from small groups or friendships. When we minimize God’s plan for the church, we miss the life-changing work of His people gathered together.


QUESTIONS:

  1. Which of the seven marks of a church do you see most clearly in your current church experience? What about least clearly?
  2. How can you shift from a casual view of church attendance to making it a life-giving rhythm in your family?
  3. In what ways does belonging to a local body of Christ strengthen your faith beyond what a friend group or Bible study can provide?
