Building A 21st Century Church (1 of 6)
Series: Building an Acts 2 Church
Frank Damazio
Introduction: Church - What comes to your mind? A building? A place where you were married? "Church" is a word that conjures up old memories such as family, friends, choir, youth camps, or Sunday dinners. However church done God's way is much more than a building, a marrying place or a boring experience. Church done God's way engages the whole person in a dynamic and meaningful experience that shapes all of life. This is the kind of church we are building together. We seek to be the church seen in Acts 2-an A2 church-a local church with a brand new force that changes culture around them, a church that is thriving and alive. The church builder is Christ, and He has already given us a model to follow, a church He built to raise our vision to match His vision of church.
