What role and impact does the church have in society? When the church as a whole functions as it should, then the world will take notice once more and be greatly impacted. God's Kingdom work will be accomplished by walking in the will and power of the Holy Spirit. By recognizing that we are in the world and not of it, we can serve as God's voice of holiness and morality.

About the Author
Author Andre Bigras and his family became believers in Jesus Christ during a 1987 meeting in Pembroke, Ontario. Sensing a call to ministry, Andre was ordained in 1998 while serving as a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. It was during this time that he became involved as a volunteer in an outreach to the poor, homeless and addicted in the inner city of Ottawa. After retiring from the R.C.M.P. as a staff sergeant in October 2009, he served as volunteer chaplain for both the R.C.M.P. and the eastern region of the Ontario Provincial Police (O.P.P.). Presently, Andre is the founding pastor of The Potter's Wheel Christian Fellowship, in Aylmer, Quebec. He also serves on the executive of the Drug Prevention Network of Canada, a group of dedicated volunteers who desire to help drug abuse victims overcome addiction through prevention, treatment and enforcement programs.
