Pr. Matt Richard helps us discern ways to recognize and define what is “the church.” Is it a group of like-minded believers sharing a common goal? Is it a place where a lot of different activities can be evident throughout the week?

Richard also explains what he means by “fallible marks” and “infallible marks” of the church.
