Recommended Reading- Stop Dating the Church

Ever wonder about the purpose and your role in the church? Have you ever considered how Jesus sees his church? How do your views flow with his?
Joshua Harris has written a great little book titled "Stop Dating The Church".

Mystery is using this book in our home groups during the month of February.
I would encourage everyone who has ever even thought about church to pick it up and give it a read. It is a very insightful, well thought out and easy to read. It is short, but very full of practical thoughts about the Bride of Christ and our commitment to her.
We live in a day and age full of confusion and delusion about the church. I think we owe Jesus and ourselves a little extended thinking about the church (considering that he thought so importantly of it to give his life for Her).

Join us in reading "Stop Dating the Church" this month. Sing up for a Home Group and enjoy the experience in Community with others. You can get a discounted copy of the book through your Home Group or you can pick up a copy on Sunday night at our Service.
