“Fellowship/Community” 4 BIG THINGS TO FIND GREAT FELLOWSHIP/CHRISTIAN COMMUNITY 1) Find a good local church to be a part of – and not just going to services, but actually getting to know people, being part of groups and gatherings, serving the church, becoming a member! 2) If there’s not enough fellowship opportunities at your church, find a Christian work, neighborhood, school, campus group to be a part of. 3) Find wonderful Christian friends. 4) Only date and marry real-deal, high character believers who share their values. * The book of Acts was written by Luke. * The Bible describes Jesus as a head. And the church as a body. * Church = 1) local church 2) universal church OBJECTIONS: * I can just watch church on TV. * We have sports on Sundays. * I have to work on Sundays. * I work all week and Sundays are my one time to rest and catch up on sleep. * I just don’t like people or being around people.
