Churches can sometimes be intimidating. They can seem like places filled with perfect people who have perfect lives, not places for people who have made mistakes. Yet the truth is quite different. The church is made up of believers—God's people—who come together because they love and need God, but also because they love and need each other. Garrett Kell explains what the church is all about and why it's important to go.
“Of all contemporary pastors, Garrett Kell is one of those I admire most. His writings, which are full of insightful biblical reflections and advice from a seasoned pastor, are always a great help to me. *Church: Do I Have to Go?* is no exception. I regret not having been able to read this book when I was younger. I am delighted, however, that it is finally available. I suggest you buy several copies and distribute them widely.”
– Matt Smethurst, editor-in-chief, The Gospel Coalition; author of the book The Deacons
Garrett does the work of a good teacher, and I would even say a good mechanic. He takes apart (one by one) the parts that make up the Church, explains why they are important and necessary, and then puts them back in their proper place. In the end, in addition to being convinced of the Church's necessity, the reader becomes captivated by its beauty.
