COMMUNITY!

THAT is what enables us…

Ephesians 2 – March 12th

How do we unite to grow together to better serve each other & beyond?

You can’t go to church (as some people say) The common terminology we use every day.

You can go to a building. That is something you can do.

But, you can’t go to church... Because the church is YOU!

REALigion = REALationship- all about Y’ALL

- Stand together - Support - Care for - Love - Offer grace - Compassion - live life together

If our faith does not transform our lives to reflect Jesus Christ, no one will listen to

us. If we do not find creative ways both to point to & exhibit the radical, shocking,

& subversive love of Christ, no one will pay any attention…

In our world today, people must often first see the transforming power of Jesus’ lordship, and

then they will learn the way of faith…
