- Description:
-
Sermon start time: (Part 1) 0:10. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 26:12.
What makes a church the church? The preacher examines the early church and argues that a church is not made of its buildings, liturgies, and activities, but is, in and of itself, a gift from God, for it is given the presence of the resurrected Jesus, the Holy Spirit, mission, and the power of forgiveness. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
Key quotation: “Church is a gift of God, a God who refuses to leave us be. He comes to us, it’s His presence that makes His church. To the church that had absolutely nothing, the risen Christ is everything.” (19:45)
