Philippians 2.12-18 Resolve to Live in Community 26 June 2016

The word “community” has gained in popularity over the past twenty years. And for good reason. Community is an all-purpose word describing a broad group of people with similar interests. What makes the word Community so user-friendly (there’s a throwback) is its ability to function as both a noun and a verb. For example, when applied to the church as a noun, community defines who we are—a gathering of people who share a common faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God, the Savior of the world. As a verb, community defines what we do—we are a gathering of people who share a common faith in Jesus and are committed to practicing what He preaches by participating in the mission of God.
