You and Community
From time to time, I come across someone who tells me that they don’t like people.
You’ll never be the best version of yourself apart from community. This has nothing to do with whether you are an introvert or an extrovert.
The reality is that we all need community because we all need love.
You can’t love on your own. That ends up just being the opposite of love: self-centeredness.
The basis of every good relationship is grounded in the very nature of God himself. Christianity teaches that the very essence of God is relational and communal in nature. We call this three-in-one aspect of God, “the Trinity.”
The church is based on that same relational nature of God. Jesus invites us to be one with him, as he is with the Father. That’s actually a really amazing thought!
You were made for the most incredible community of all: an eternal community of love!
Remember: You were made for community.
