Our subject for Sunday night’s Being the Church session is Authentic Fellowship. Church fellowship is a step above what is available in the world.

How is the church called to be different from the local social club?

Christian community often is confused with mere cordiality, courtesy, or sociability, says Howard A. Snyder. As such, it can be not much different from the Kiwanis Club or a neighborhood potluck. But genuine Christian fellowship is a gift of the Holy Spirit, centered on Jesus, which becomes a living witness to Christ and the gospel in the world.
Why can authentic Christian fellowship be so difficult to develop? What are the markers of genuine Christian fellowship? How can it be deepened and strengthened? These are the questions we’ll be asking and discussing in this study.

I know it’s Superbowl Sunday but do you really care who wins this game. The Saints ain’t playing. The Saints will be in church and the sorta Saints can record the game. See you there.
