In this teaching, George takes a fresh look at a very old word: church. We begin where Jesus first used it—in Matthew 16:18—and explore what he meant by ekklesia, the Greek word that translates to “assembly” or “gathering.”
Far from the cathedrals and institutions many associate with church today, the first-century experience was radically simple—no buildings, no Bibles, no bands. Just people coming together on purpose, moved by love, and called to live out the way of Jesus in their world.
The ekklesia in every generation must make fresh and rejuvenated efforts in their own time & place.
