Many professing Christians claim they really don’t need to be a part of a church because they can live the Christian life just fine without one. But the truth is, no Christian has ever been called to go it alone in his or her walk with God. In “Together in the Christian Life,” Dr. Stanley shares with us the vital importance of being an active part of the church. Everyone who wants to maintain a vital, growing relationship with Jesus Christ needs to be committed to a local body of believers. If we do so, our lives will never be the same.

This message is included in the fifth volume of the set, Life Principles to Live By.

Do you want to know God better? In this series, Dr. Stanley offers in-depth teaching on 30 principles that have guided his life and ministry—truths that will help you grow in love, knowledge, and service to our Lord.
