| Connect in Little Communities (Chip Gilmour) |
| Biblical community is often overlooked as an essential element of life change. It's in the context of community that we continue to connect and live life together. It is when we live in this way we are able to setup the crucilble for the Holy Spirit to begin its work and refining. If we neglect community, we are missing out on engouragement from others, and using our gifts to edify the body as commanded by God. |
