Gathered by Christ: The Overlooked Gift of Church

"I like Jesus, but I'm not sure about the Church."

Through our fallen world of sin, humans*-including those within the congregation-can hurt others and push people out rather than inviting them in. Yet, Christ calls us to shepherd all people back to Him and to His Church, no matter how people have been led astray.

Author Christa Petzold empathizes and understands how Christians outside the physical church maybe be hesitant to return, yet she encourages them to come back and see the gifts Jesus gives through His Church. She brings light and emphasis to the ways Jesus sees His community of believers, founded securely on Him and His Word.
