Word of the Week - The Church Part 2: The Spiritual Building

In this episode of the Middletown Baptist Church podcast series 'Word of the Week,' Pastor Josh delves into the biblical concept of the church as a spiritual building. He explores 1 Peter Chapter 2, explaining how believers are likened to 'living stones' that form this spiritual house with Jesus Christ as the chief cornerstone. The analogy emphasizes unity, humility, and the importance of building on the foundational truth of Jesus. In contrast to physical structures, this spiritual building points to a collective purpose of praising God and spreading the gospel. The episode concludes with an invitation to join next week's discussion on the church as a beacon of truth.
