One Nation Under God Part 4: Christ the King and the Meaning of the Ecclesia | Under God Ep 329

Perfect for the commute, the gym, or the drive, this teaching walks you through Christ the King, the keys of the kingdom, and the Great Commission to disciple the nations. Learn why the ecclesia carries the priesthood of every believer into public life, and why the church that refuses to retreat cannot be defeated.
