Alright, welcome to Marcel Church. Today the big question is, what's a church?

How many of you, if this week somebody came up to you and asked what did you do this week, you say, I went to church.

If they asked, so what's a church? What would your answer be? Where would you take them in the Bible?

And the truth is, there's a lot of churches, there's a lot of Christians and most Christians don't know really what a church is.

I've heard some weird definitions, I'll say, of a church over the years.

Some years ago I noticed that there were these single guys, it's always single guys, they're always the best illustrations.

There were these single guys who would be at church but they would not be there for the summer.

So I asked them, how come you're not a church during the summer, they say, oh, we go to a different church.

I said, okay, what church should we go to?
