God has established the local church with various ministries intended to reach out to people, both near and far. As individuals enter into this aspect of our Christian life, the Holy Spirit will open to us some amazing new concepts of who we are in Christ Jesus. It is essential that we as individuals become involved in the local church through membership. It is God's desire that we individually discover our full potential, and develop spiritually in order to effectively fulfill the ministry to which God has called us to. It is this common involvement and teamwork that brings glory to God and strengthens His church.
