I began our new series, “Pave the Way,” this weekend at Eastbrook Church with a message about the identity and mission of the church. The message, “On the Road Again: Being the Church, Not Going to Church,” was rooted in Matthew 28:18-20. The main point was: “Church is not somewhere we go. It’s who we are in Jesus Christ.”
You can listen to the message here at the Eastbrook web-site. You can also subscribe to our sermons for Eastbrook via the RSS feed or iTunes. You can also follow Eastbrook on Twitter.
The outline for the message is included below:
