The church is not an institution for perfect people; it is a sanctuary for sinners saved by grace, a nursery for God's children to be nurtured and grow strong. It is the fold for Christ's sheep, the home for Christ's family. The church is the dearest place on earth.

As we focus on the beauty and the role of the church, The Dearest Place on Earth seeks answers to these questions: What is the church? What are elders? What are deacons? What is a member? What is a covenant? What is our mission? How do we accomplish this?
