Together: Why We Need the Local Church PB

Does joining a local church seem like a hassle—a distraction from your spiritual growth? Does the local church even matter? Busy lives and difficult relationships can hold you back from embracing the shared life only found in a local church.

In this book, brothers Gabriel and Isaac Wingfield explore how God has given us the local church because we can’t live the Christian life on our own. If becoming a member of a church is not something you’ve considered—or perhaps even something you’ve avoided—this book will help you discover the wonderful gift of our shared life in the local church.
