Who is the church really for — believers, seekers, or both? In this video, Christian Barrett explores the purpose of the local church, the role of expositional preaching, and whether church should primarily be outreach-driven.
Along the way, he responds to Joël Malm’s perspective, examines what makes a Biblical sermon, and discusses whether outreach and exegetical preaching stand in contrast with one another. We’ll also touch on how worship music (with references to Brandon Lake and Bryce Crawford) plays into the larger conversation.
