The Church Retreat (Sermon)

Jon Bryars preaches on the church as the body of Christ, emphasizing that believers are united, interdependent members with distinct gifts and responsibilities. Drawing on the body metaphor, he explains that Christians need one another, contribute to the church, help form the next generation, and must remain connected to Christ as the head. Congregants are encouraged to see church participation as essential, mutually beneficial, and grounded in dependence on Jesus.
