Do you know what it means to be the Ekklesia? Can you even say that word? During our retreat, we took a look at what it means for us to be “called out,” servants of the King. If you were not able to attend the Ekklesia Retreat, you gotta listen to the teachings from the weekend! Not only will you will learn how to say ‘Ekklesia,’ but you will be challenged and encouraged to serve your King.
“But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.” 1 Peter 2:9-10
