A loving community of believers is essential in the health of a local church family. This message looks at 1 Peter 3:8 and addresses the differences between unrealistic views towards church community verses biblical attitudes of Christ followers. How are we to respond when our high expectations of church community fall short?

Unified Mission

Collective unity in the overall mission of Jesus is vital to the local church. This message looks at scripture to help us understand the importance of unity and the destruction of divisiveness.

Relational Accountability

One of the most important symptoms of a Healthy Church could be relational accountability. It's a sensitive topic for many but Galatians 6:1 teaches us that loving one another in the church involves humbly sharing responsibility for one another’s holiness in our lives.

Selfless Service

A huge indicator towards the overall health of a local church body is their devotion to serving God. We are not saved by serving, but we are saved for serving. This message gives the Christ-follower things to remember when it comes to "serving God by serving others."
