Dear Church Family,

It is hard to believe we have already completed our study of Ephesians. As we begin the fall season, I thought it would be beneficial to do a special study on the doctrine of the Church. Our study will take us through the month of October and into November. We will address the following issues:

• What is the Church?
• What is the role of the Church in the world?
• How does Scripture direct us to resolve conflict within the Church?
• What is the role of worship within the Church?
• What are the characteristics of a Biblical Church?

Please be in prayer as we embark on this study. I hope that it clarifies, instructs, and convicts us all to be the church God wants us to be.

Sincerely,
John
