Jesus' Church Is______

Do you ever wonder - why go to church?  Why do church?  What is the point after all?  There are so many other important things in you can be doing or thinking about on a Sunday morning:  sports, lunch, relationships.  Why does church really matter?  After all, Jesus is good - but the church is full of some messed up sinful people.  Can't you have Jesus without His Church?

In a word, no.  

Jesus is His Church.  If that's true, then what does Jesus' Church look like?  What does it do?  Would it look and be like Bellwether? 

Regardless of what anyone thinks, Bellwether IS Jesus' Church.  It's His and no one else's.  That being said, it's up to US as HIS people to B HIS CHURCH.  

The next two Sunday's are two of the most important sermons of the year.  In them, we at Bellwether will have an honest conversation about Who We Are as a church, Where We've Been, and Where We are Going as Jesus' Church.  It is a two-part series called "State of His Church."  Because Bellwether is His church.  Please make every effort to BE at church the next two Sunday's.  We believe not only will you be blessed, you will hear and see what His church, Bellwether, can be when we talk bold steps of faith to raise His Kingdom.  Our Scripture this Sunday will be Acts 2: 37-47 and Acts 6: 1-7.  

We hope you will come Sunday.  We hope you will invite someone whose eternal life matters.  We hope you will come expecting and planning to see God do things you never thought possible in His church named Bellwether - this Sunday and in the next year - and in you.  We can't.  He can.  

See you Sunday.  May you fully know the church of Jesus Christ.  It matters to your life now, and it matters for your eternity.
