Rediscover the Church as God intended with The Church in God's Design: Biblical Metaphors That Reveal Christ's Purpose for His People. This theologically rich and pastorally grounded volume invites believers to see the Church not through cultural assumptions or institutional models, but through the inspired images God uses in Scripture to reveal His redemptive design.

Written for pastors, church leaders, theology students, and thoughtful believers, this book explores the Church as the Body of Christ, the Bride, the Household of God, the Temple, the Flock, and the City of God. These biblical metaphors are not mere illustrations-they are divinely given revelations that shape the Church's identity, unity, holiness, mission, and hope.

Blending careful biblical theology with pastoral insight, The Church in God's Design traces these images across the whole of Scripture, showing how they converge in Christ and find their fulfillment in God's eternal purposes. The Church is presented not as a human institution or religious service provider, but as God's dwelling place, Christ's beloved people, and a living witness to His kingdom in the world.

Each chapter offers clear exposition and theological reflection, helping readers understand how these metaphors inform worship, leadership, discipleship, community life, and mission. Special attention is given to recovering a Christ-centered vision of the Church in an age marked by fragmentation, consumerism, and confusion about ecclesial identity.
