Commit to Community

Our communities exert a profound influence on our life-choices and habits. We can have kingdom goals and habits pointing us one direction in life, but if those closest to us continually point us in other directions, even our best goals and intentions are likely to fall short. So we need to surround ourselves with people who have the qualities that we want to emulate in our life. From the very beginning of His earthly ministry, we see Jesus committed to community; He begins by calling men and women to walk together and be in community with Him - to become as He is and to lead others to do the same.
