IN SEARCH OF THE LORD’S WAY
How does one become a member of the body of Christ, the church? Is church membership necessary to please God and to be saved? What are my responsibilities as a part of the church which Jesus built? These questions will be considered by Phil Sanders in next week’s sermon presentation, “A Member of The Body.” The program can be seen every Sunday at 7:30 a.m. on WTRF-TV, Ch. 7.
