After Darkness, Light: 2015 National Conference
Scripture tells us that the church is the body of Christ, the entity through which God works to proclaim His gospel to the world. In our day, this magnificent calling for the church is often neglected, and the good news of the gospel is exchanged for a sales pitch that fills seats at the expense of the clear preaching of the one message that can save us from sin and darkness. Dr. Godfrey shows how the church is a community brought into being by the living God for the purpose of bringing His light to the nations, and he will beseech the Lord to revive us from a low view of the church.
