Life Together

Hope Presbyterian Church in Winston-Salem Sermons

Series: Worship in Spirit and TruthScripture: Psalm 133 “Getting saved is easy; becoming a community is difficult – damnably difficult.” —Eugene Peterson “I didn’t come to the conviction easily, but finally there was no getting around it; there can be no maturity in the spiritual life, no obedience in following Jesus, no wholeness in the Christian life apart from an immersion and embrace of community. I am not myself by myself. Community, not the highly vaunted individualism of our culture, is the setting in which Christ is at play.” —Eugene Peterson “If we do not give thanks daily for the Christian fellowship in which we have been placed, even when there is no great experience, no discoverable riches, but much weakness, small faith, and difficulty; if on the contrary, we only keep complaining to God that everything is so paltry and petty, so far from what we expected, then we hinder God from letting our fellowship grow according to the measure and riches which are there for us all in Jesus Christ.” —Dietrich Bonhoeffer “Love the one you’re with.” —Stephen StillsThe post Life Together first appeared on Hope Church PCA.
