A Called Out People

To be a part of the church, at its core, means to be set apart by God. The Church of Jesus Christ is a peculiar people. We stand out from the world because God has revealed himself to us and empowered us by his Spirit to respond. And through this, we are called into a new identity as a holy race, a royal priesthood, a people called to proclaim the excellencies of him who called us out of darkness.
