why church matters

going all in with the broken yet beautiful body of christ

Mark Hallock & Aaron Weber


In Why Church Matters, Mark Hallock and Aaron Weber give us a glimpse of the inherent beauty and glory God has invested in the local church. In modern Western culture, individualism is prevalent and the idea that one can love Jesus without loving the church can seem appealing. The Bible is clear, however, that Jesus is the head of the church, loves His bride the church, and refers to the church as His body leading to the conclusion that loving the church flows directly from a love for Jesus.

This book, designed for church members and leaders, is divided into four sections:

  1. What is the church?

  2. A brief history of the church

  3. Why do we need the church?

  4. What should I look for in a church

Biblical, theological and practical, this book will help people understand God’s design behind the local church and the importance of commitment to one.
