What does it mean to be a part of the family of God? In the Bible, God calls all who believe in him his children (2 Corinthians 6:18). But what is our purpose as believers here on earth? Church-Mission-Ministry looks at what God says in his Word and what he assigns his people—his church—to do. This book also examines the nature of the church, its people, and its practices, as outlined in the Scriptures. After reading this book, you'll have a better idea of what it means in the family of God! The People's Bible Teachings is a series of books on all the main teachings of the Bible. Following the pattern set by The People's Bible series, these books are written for all Christians in an easy-to-read manner. The authors of The People's Bible are all pastors and professors who have had years of experience teaching others about the Bible.
