Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When you hear 'ecclesia' do you immediately think 'church'; even though you have heard in lecture after lecture that ecclesia is Greek for 'called out ones' - that is, people, congregation, assembly, or community? Why do we see it translated as church in our English Bibles? How has this influenced our understanding of the verses where this mistranslation is used? Come explore the implications with us. You will hesitate to use the term church when you discover its true origins. You will see that it was forced in by an evil ruler so that he could control the people of God and limit them to a small sphere of life. Ecclesia Communities identifies and peels back false traditions. Some traditions are nefarious in origin, while others are well-intentioned. These traditions have piled up over time and cloud our way back to the truth of God's Word regarding:¿ Who we really are in Christ. ¿ What our role is in our communities. ¿ What is our full mission. This book is a start at clearing away distracting and misleading traditions. There is much more to do as we, Jesus' ecclesia, His hands, and feet, "make all things new".We have work to do!
