Genesis Church - Sermons

The life of faith is designed to be done with a team. It’s not a solo event. We go together and we need each other. It would be nonsense for my little toe to look at my body and say, “Yo, I don’t need you. Gonna do this on my own.” It’s just as silly for those who believe in Jesus to disconnect from community and live out their faith without a family. We were made for relationships and there are amazing blessings that are only available when you are connected to the church and involved in community. The imagery of the church as a body is so helpful. You are important. You are needed for the organism to function. But, you also need the other parts of the body to be healthy and growing in your faith and life. At Genesis we nurture this sort of fellowship in our Community Groups. We hope to show you today why involvement in a group is vital for your growth in the Gospel. We will introduce all of the groups and leaders as a way of inviting you in. If you are already in a group, great! Keep going! If you want to try a new group, now is a great time to check one or two out. If you aren’t in a group, we invite you to visit a group, enjoy some food and fun in a community, and consider how you might find your place in the body.
