What does it mean to be a member of East Coast Christian Center?

Church membership is necessary because the church, the body of Christ, is a family. Every person is part of the human race, but every person also belongs to a local, tight-knit family. Every Christian is part of the body of Christ, and the church is a Christian’s local tight-knit family.
