Why Church | God's Design

Oct 5, 2025    Kyle Johnson

In this message, Pastor Kyle reminds us that the Church is not a human invention — it’s God’s design. From the moment Jesus declared, “I will build My Church,” we see that the Church was His plan to reveal His presence, power, and purpose on earth.

The Church isn’t a social club or a Sunday routine — it’s the living body of Christ. God established it, empowered it, and entrusted it with His mission to bring light, healing, and hope to a broken world. Through Scripture, we’re reminded that the Church is more than a place we attend — it’s a people we become.


In this week’s message, Pastor Kyle walks us through passages in Matthew 16, John 14, and Ephesians 5 to show that Jesus didn’t just die for individuals — He gave Himself for His Church. His design is one of power, purity, and partnership, where His followers continue the work He began.


📖 Scripture: Matthew 16:15–19 | John 14:12 | Ephesians 5:25–27 | Ephesians 1:22–23
