In this thought-provoking episode of NCC Unplugged, Preaching Minister Jeff Terpstra, Minister of Small Groups and Outreach, Garrett Crawford, and our Media Director, Matt Mastroianni deeply explore the essential role of community in the Christian church. They expound on the spiritual growth process, transforming from merely knowing Jesus to participating in genuinely significant connections.
Discover how a robust spiritual community can be fostered through the four pillars of our small groups ministry that are drawn from Acts 2.42: Studying the Word, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer. Our hosts shed light on why these small groups play a key role in bringing the church together, making it feel more personal and intimate.
Be astounded by the contrast between the shared values and deep spiritual connection within Christian communities and the prevailing individualism in today’s society. Learn about the revolutionary cultural paradigm shift the early Christian church facilitated, eradicating societal divisions and uniting people together with their shared connection in Christ.
Unearth the importance of authentic connection within the church that goes beyond superficial interests. Recognize the importance of viewing yourself as part of the larger church community and the need for a higher awareness of the spiritual family to which we all belong. Engage in an insightful discussion on the challenges that the church faces within an individualistic society, and the essential role of connection in spiritual growth.
Join us in this insightful episode as we delve deep into the essence of Christian community in the Church, articulating how a shift from individualism towards a collective mindset can enhance the understanding of Scripture and enrich your spiritual journey.
