The Church Bible Study Lessons

The church is supposed to be a little bit of heaven a long way from home. It is to be that place where the values of eternity operate in history. The church is a place where weary people can go to find truth, acceptance, equality, freedom, safety, forgiveness, justice, and hope.

Yet how is it possible for the number of churches in our nation to be ever increasing while the impact of the church only wanes? How can we have so much preaching, praising, and programs and yet so little demonstrated power? Why does the church merely react to society’s agenda rather than offering a kingdom agenda to better society itself?

The answers to these questions lie in the reality that the church today bears little resemblance to the kingdom we came from. This is because we have failed to function from a kingdom perspective. The church has stopped being the biblical church it was designed to be, and as a result we have limited our impact on contemporary society—both inside and outside our walls.
