One of the strongest images for the Church, and a local church, is family. We are members of God's family, brothers and sisters, heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ. We have been born into this family, born again, born of the Spirit of God through faith in Christ (John 3).
Recently, I was reminded in our our family, what being God's family means in our church. Family is a place where your welcomed with a hug, you don't have to wait for an invitation to come, and you can bring your dirty laundry home with you--we'll work on it together!
I want opur church to be that for one another. Our past family expereince may not be perfect, it might not be what it could be, but our expereince in God's family, together, can be all that God intends it too be.
Leave a comment on what you think it takes or looks like for a church to be or do family together.
