In today's world, as earthly goals and objectives have flooded the twenty-first-century church, it is of absolute importance that Christians rekindle their passion for their God-given calling and the mission of Christ. As believers, we must remember Jesus Christ, the center of our message and the ultimate example for the Church.Within Jesus: The Design for the Church, author Joel Aviles makes a prophetic call for the Church to return to the purpose for which it was designed-to become representatives of Christ's salvation and righteousness.Through the gospel, God has laid out a pattern for the Church before creation itself, and that pattern is Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son. Christ has set the example for the Church, becoming the pattern that we are to exemplify in every area and aspect of our lives. As His followers, our purpose is to speak of Him, to walk like Him, and most importantly, to reflect Him in all we do, and through the Holy Spirit, we can become more like Him each day.Saturated with scriptures that reveal Jesus as God's design for His people, Jesus: The Design for the Church combines spiritual simplicity, practicality, and depth to paint a clear and vivid picture of God's plan for your life as a disciple of Christ. Join Aviles on a journey from eternity past to eternity future, diving into the pages of God's Word from Genesis to Revelation. Discover the person of Jesus Christ throughout the Bible by reading, analyzing, and understanding the ministry and majesty of the Son of God.With guidance for the new believer, reminders for the seasoned believer, and good news for the unbeliever, Jesus: The Design for the Church will fill your heart with joy as you embrace Jesus, God's answer for all of humanity. Joel Aviles has been preaching and functioning in a diversity of ministries from a young age. Throughout the years he has been an evangelist, pastor, teacher, and mentor to many. A passion for preaching and missions has taken him throughout North, Central, and South America, the Caribbean, and Europe, proclaiming the gospel of the Kingdom of God. Rev.
