The Essential Church - Matthew 16:13-20 - Skip Heitzig

Many voices today are decrying the church, rejecting its message and doubting its relevance. And yet, according to its founder, Jesus Christ, the church is essential. COVID-19 has only served to accentuate the voices on both sides of the argument about the church’s importance, so we find ourselves on a timely subject. As we consider the nature and purpose of the church in this message from our 20/20 series, let’s be committed to being the people of God as the New Testament presents them to be.

This teaching is from the series 20/20: Seeing Truth Clearly with Skip Heitzig from Calvary Church.
