Edward Hughes Pruden was the Pastor Emeritus of the First Baptist Church, Washinton, D.C. The service begins with a reading of 1 Corinthians 12 (0:00-1:10). Pruden’s message answers the question “what is the church?” Pruden begins by discussing the church's role in society (1:11-6:16). He explains that the church is a means by which God’s love is showed to the world (6:17-16:07). He adds that the church is also a spiritual family for believers (16:08-20:25). He closes in prayer (20:26-21:26). This chapel is very distorted throughout.
