We live during a time where people are yearning for authentic community. A place where relationships go beyond shallow interactions into deeper territory; where people remain connected and committed despite all the drama attached to being sinful individuals; and where we’re fully known and yet, fully loved.

According to John, this can only happen in a community grounded in Christ, which stands on the foundation of God’s love. As hard as this community project may be, when we’re faithful to God’s call to doing community well, there’s a unique promise that we will experience God in a unique way.
