There are specific characteristics that define Christ’s church and set us apart from every other group of people in the world. Pastor Jeff Walling introduces our “This Is Us” series and explores the first of seven qualities of a church that reflects Jesus’ teachings in the Gospels and the early church we see in Acts 2:14-40. Bold preaching of the Gospel has been a key attribute of the church since the beginning. Preaching is speech with a purpose. The Gospel is shared, not just shown! Preaching is speech that is public The Gospel is to be heralded not hidden!
