What Jesus Thinks About His Church
In the Gospels Jesus proclaims that He will "build His Church." In the Book of Acts we see the beginnings and spread of His Church. Throughout the epistles we see the good, the bad and the ugly of the struggling Church. In Revelation chapters 2-3 we find John writing to seven literal churches in Asia Minor. It has been about 65 years since the Lord's ascension. Jesus through John is asking . . . "Hey it's been a while. Let's see how are you guys doing?" In these two chapters Jesus goes on to either applaud or criticize the churches for their actions or lack thereof.


The question is . . . what if Jesus came to visit churches today in the United States? What do you think he would have to say? It could be a very sobering thought. Statistics tell us that as a whole, the Church in this country is not doing so well. Why? Could the answer be the total lack of discipleship in churches today? Why the vast difference and the tremendous disparity between the early church and the church today?


This book is an attempt to answer many of these questions as well as give spiritual direction to those who are the Church.



Chris Copeland brings a lot of experience to the table as an author. He is a graduate of Arizona College of the Bible and Fuller Theological Seminary. He has held innumerable jobs: a police officer, commercial diver, pastor, college professor, project and safety manager in the semiconductor industry, high school and college track coach.
