What is the Church, and What is Our Mission?

This week on Trending, Matt and Pastor Joe dive into the mission, structure, and purpose of the Church—how it started, how it has changed, and where it might be headed.

They explore the ongoing tension between evangelism and discipleship, and why churches today often emphasize one over the other. Plus, they unpack how the church has evolved across history, from small house gatherings to modern worship experiences, and what these shifts mean for how we live out our faith today.

Join us for a thoughtful conversation about what it means to be the church and how we can better connect, grow, and serve together.
