<h3>'''[[Church]]'''</h3>
In simplest terms, the [[church]] is the Christian community of believers, that is, it is the people of God gathered together. Sometimes the word '''church''' is also used to refer to a [[church building]] (the building used in [[Christian]] [[worship]]) or a [[church service]] (the weekly meeting of a group of Christians in a church building) or to a church [[denomination]]. Ecclesiology means the study of the doctrine of the church.
