Community: Discovering Why God Wants Us to Care for Each Other
“Let us make man in our image, after our likeness” (Genesis 1:26).
By nature, God is community. Humans are made to “image God.” In the very fabric of our being there is the impulse to relate to others. So why is community so difficult to attain? What keeps us from embracing the kind of relationships that we are wired for?
In this book we will follow the beginnings and the development of community in the Bible. From the Old Testament, where the principles of community are laid out, to the New Testament, where the stories of Jesus “flesh out” the concept of community, it is in His interaction with the disciples, His encounters with people, and His teachings that we find the true purpose of community.
