COMMUNITY PRACTICE

 
A shift from Radical Individualism towards creating Community - forming Families.


Introducing the "Community Practice" Series (Trailer)


Session One: Be Family around a Table

 Session One Thoughts: 

WHAT IS COMMUNITY? What does Community look like today in your world?

Are our communities ISOLATED, our lives LONELY and despite all our online interactions on social media platforms are we really connected or DISCONNECTED from community living? 

Do you agree that we live in an "EPIDERMIC OF LONELINESS" as the video describes? 

What should a Christian Community look like? 

In the video John Mark suggests that our disconnected communities not only make us "lonely" but "stunt" our spiritual growth and REAL SPIRITUAL GROWTH OCCURS IN THE CONTEXT OF COMMUNITY. 

WHAT IS FAMILY and how is it described in this video?  How did Jesus describe family when he said: "who is my father/mother/brother and sister?"

In our Connect Group we asked the question HOW CAN WE TRANSFORM OUR CONNECT GROUPS TO BECOME FAMILY? (Answers included being vulnerable, accountable, transparent, truthful about our challenges and doing life together.) 

What is our Vision for Connect Groups? It is: Forging Friendships, CREATING FAMILIES & Making Disciples.
