caring community,
a community of compassion......
We all like to be a part of a community. What that looks like today is a lot different than what it looked like yesterday. For example, in times past people gathered together less often but for long periods, maybe one long service on Sunday, different...........
The Church as described in God's Word is a community of Jesus believers........
The cool thing about Church is it is a place to lay aside any division and
and recognize we are ALL imperfect reckless sinners........NO sides, all sinners!
This year, hopefully we can stop dividing and start coming together as Christians, as brothers and sisters.....
Petty personal preferences put aside .....
13 Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. 14 And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. 15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful. 16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.
