If you asked people around you to describe the Christian Church, what would they say? Sadly, the perception held by unbelievers in our culture is not always a positive one.

Why are we here? That's a huge philosophical question for the human race. But for Christians, our purpose on earth is made very clear in the God's Word.

As we look around our nation today, it's evident that the culture is shifting ever farther from the foundation of God's Word.
