by Lloyd Gardner (Author)
Have we allowed church life to become so complicated and mingled with the world's ways that we are producing something other than what is the desire of God's heart? This book makes the case that God always intended that his church remain simple and pure in its devotion to Christ. The church is the family of God headed up by the Father, redeemed by the Son, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and composed of the children of God who love him and one another. God is calling us all to this place of simplicity and purity in which we break free of the world's clutches and live in the freedom and joy of his kingdom expressed in his church. Listen with your spiritual ears and you will hear the call and be blessed to come back to the church Christ died to build.
