Changed By God To Make A Difference For God

What is "the church" and why should Christians (or anyone else for that matter) care? As the NT writers astonishingly claim, church is nothing less than God's Spirit-empowered people living out their faith in Jesus Christ, imperfect as that can be at times. Simply put, without the Church there can be no Christianity. What a remarkable challenge! Are we up for it? Check out what Fr. Maney has to say about it all and see what you think. Lectionary texts for today's parish dedication festival of St. Augustine's Anglican Church in Westerville, OH are 1 Chronicles 29.6-19; Psalm 122; Ephesians 2.19-22; John 2.13-22.
