Value #2: “AUTHENTIC COMMUNITY is required for sustained Spiritual Growth”

“Authentic Community” means I have a transparent relationship with a group of people.

1. John 13:34-35
Love = Command

What is the S.H.A.P.E. of love?
Sacrifice
Humility
Acceptance
Proximity
Encouragement

2. Acts 2:42-47
What do Christ-following communities DO with their time?

Who in this church family can I honestly say I am “devoted” to?

3. Hebrews 10:24-25
Other people are part of my community.

What are the actual consequences when one person drifts away from the community?
