What if the greatest problem facing the church today is that we've quietly accepted a version of church Jesus never intended?

For more than thirty years we've wrestled with a simple question:

Exactly what is Church?

In this opening episode of the Primal Church series, we explain why that question has become impossible for us to ignore. Along the way we discuss painful encounters with broken families, a near-fatal carbon monoxide poisoning that became an unexpected picture of the Church's need to breathe again, and why comparing the modern Western church with both the Book of Acts and the underground Chinese church of the last 80 years raises difficult—but necessary—questions.

This is our invitation to rediscover what Christ intended.
