Enduring in the Family of God

The aspect of the Christian life that might require the most endurance of all is remaining in Christian community—truly belonging to the family of God in a way that gets below the surface. Among many who say they "love Jesus but not the church," we desire to remain committed to Jesus's vision for our lives as part of the bride, body, and family of Christ. In this sermon we consider the example of the earliest church and apply it to the relational backbone of our local church: community groups.
