If you are a believer, fellowship is not optional. The bible gives us several commands that include the words, “one another” and we cannot obey these commands unless we are planted in a community of believers. How can we comfort one another, serve one another, bear one another’s burdens, etc. if we aren’t around one another?

God designed us to be in complete and loving families. But, unfortunately, the world is broken, and for many of us, that just doesn’t exist at home. This is where the church can make a difference. Belonging to a body of believers…

I don’t know about you, but forgiveness is pretty high up there in the commands I tend to fail easiest at. So hard that it’s even taken years. It’s impossible at times to forgive those who've deeply wounded you…

Through our feelings of disconnection, God is teaching us what it means to be intentional. It’s clear that we are to follow the footsteps of Jesus in how we love, and Jesus loved us so much he faithlessly calls us to have a relationship with him even when it’s not easy. As members of the body, we should love others through pursuing them especially in this time of extended isolation and fear.
