What does the church offer?

Recently I was at a text study with other pastors and the question of what the church has to offer came up. My answer to that question was that it is a broken community, filled with humans and their own brokenness that they bring. One of the other pastors replied that in the midst of this brokenness, this is where God lives. And this is so true! Despite our brokenness, God lives in the midst of all of our problems, our pain, and our faults. That is the hope!
