Jesus built a community and purchased it with his blood. It is called the ekklesia--the called out community--designated church in English. It is the community where people from all nations reside (Isaiah 2:2-4; 1 Timothy 3:15) with all "spiritual blessings" (Ephesians 1:3-7), and mutual responsibilities to one another as outlined in 52 one another passages. In the hearts of most people there is a genuine longing for real community were you are accepted "warts, moles, and all." Without community there is an empty place in our souls. Deep, transparent relationships in the Body of Christ help us grow into what God has intended for us "as members one of another". This book contains 16 lessons about our life together in the called out community of Christ. Jesus said. By this shall all men know you are my disciples. This book will make a dynamic study individually, in small groups, classes, and content for sermons.
