12/12/23 • 49 min

Why is it good to be a member of a Presbyterian Church? Teaching Elder, Fred Greco, of Christ Church Katy, joins us today to answer that question and discuss Presbyterianism.
We walkthrough:
1) Why be a member of a church?
2) Brief overview of the models of church government.
3) Why choose a presbyterian church? (particularly conservative, confessional ones in NAPARC)
4) How to serve Jesus in your local church.
