Community Blessings

Community is a catch phrase these days. Online communities, sports communities, religious communities are just a few of the places this term is used. Over the last few years I have had a passion to restore a community. This community has often been stifled over the last century. The Body of Christ was one of the most, if not THE most effective community ever to exist.

Acts 2:42-47 is one of the most foreign concepts in this day and age. "And all who believed were together and had all things in common." Not one person in that original church had any sort of need. Everyone worked together to meet the needs of everyone else. Where has this gone church?

I have been blessed greatly in recent days by the new body of believers I have joined. I cannot even imagine what the church would like if we could give this kind of reception to every new believer! I wish this kind of love on everyone. I will work to give it in greater quantities than I thought possible. What will you do?



Signs in China were often lost in translation... But I like the imagery of this one. We need to take our loving community to a new level. It has been kinda poopy in the last 100 years.
