If belief in Jesus as Lord and God enables us to enter into a relationship with God, why do Christian’s still insist on gathering together as a community? Why must one go to church if they are saved? What is the purpose of the church? The Apostles’ Creed asserts a belief in the holy catholic church and the communion of saints. In order to understand the significance of the church, it’s important to understand these three key adjectives. What does it mean for the church to be a communion, and for the church to by holy and catholic?

This We Believe is brought to you by Lexham Press, publisher of Dr. Niebauer’s forthcoming book Four Mountains: Encountering God in the Bible from Eden to Zion. Four Mountains takes readers through the whole story of the Bible through its mountains, training readers to encounter scripture like the early Christians. Learn how God uses symbols like wood, water, and fire to stitch together the Old and New Testaments, and discover how these symbols draw us up into the very life of Christ. Four Mountains can be read by individuals or as part of church Bible studies and Christian education classes.
