What does it mean to be a committed member of a local church? Is simply walking down the aisle enough, or does the Bible call for a more intentional process? In this episode of Everyday Reformation, Pastor Brandon Scroggins and faithful church member Nick Carter break down the who, what, when, where, why, and how of church membership.
