Lesson 10 of 28

The Church Family

Understand what the church is and why every Christian needs Christian community.

1

People, not just a building

The church is the community of people who belong to Jesus. A building is simply one place where the church gathers.

Where to read: 1 Corinthians 12:12–27.

1 Corinthians 12:27

“Now ye are the body of Christ, and members in particular.”

2

Growing together

Christians gather for teaching, fellowship, prayer, worship, encouragement, and the Lord’s Supper.

Where to read: Acts 2:41–47.

Acts 2:42

“And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers.”

3

Every member matters

God gives every believer a place to belong and ways to serve. No member is unimportant.

Where to read: Ephesians 4:11–16.

Ephesians 4:16

“The whole body fitly joined together... maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.”
