My ninety-five-year-old friend, Harry Fox, has ministered his whole life in the Church of Christ, which originated in the Campbellite restoration movement, and we have had many conversations about the quest for the true church of Christ. This paper explores the basic issues of these dialogues. Can the true church of Christ be found in many different denominations or must it be housed in one structure? What are the characteristics of the true church of Christ? Is membership in the correct institutional church required for salvation?
