Michael Horton, Gavin Ortlund, and Jordan B. Cooper discuss the nature of the church, asking: Is the church visible or invisible? Does the church belong to one institution? Can Protestants be deep in history? How important are aesthetics in the church?

Gavin Ortlund (PhD, Fuller Theological Seminary) is President of Truth Unites, Visiting Professor of Historical Theology at Phoenix Seminary, and Theologian-in-Residence at Immanuel Nashville.
