Relationship
“We’re in community because God is community and he created us in his image. We glorify God by investing in each other in order to strengthen and grow the body.”
We were designed for community. A key part of that is one-anothering well. The New Testament is full of challenges to “one another”, to actually “do” something towards another person. These behaviors come from an overflow of our relationship with Jesus, and they are about sharpening, challenging, and building one another up. If a person only attends the Sunday Gatherings, they can easily feel disconnected. Needs can be missed, and transparency doesn’t happen well.
Ministries like 3D and community groups are where we make the effort to go deeper and develop honest, grace-filled relationships with accountability.
