Throughout his journey as a Christian and a pastor, Joe Alvarez from The Avenue Church in Riverside, CA has learned that the essence of the church lies not in its physical structure, but in the love, compassion, and service we extend to our fellow human beings. In this 4-minute video, Joe shares his experiences working with the homeless community and discovering the true meaning of the church—one without walls, as taught by Jesus in Matthew 25:40.
“Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.”
Key takeaways from this video:
• The church is not confined to a building; it is a community of believers serving others
• Embrace the church without walls by showing love, compassion, and support to the homeless and those in need
• Reflect on Matthew 25:40 and its powerful message about caring for the “least of these”
