Church as Family

January 8, 2017 Preacher: Josh Black Series: True Community

Passage: Ephesians 2:11–22

Sermon Questions
- What are you expectations for community at First Free? Do you think your expectations need to be recalibrated?

- How would you describe your level of community and connection at First Free? What factors do you use to evaluate that?

- Why is friendship an inadequate framework for understanding community in the church? How does the idea of "church as family" change your goals or expectations for community?

- Looking around at your relationships and those you observe at First Free would you say the gospel of Jesus is the common and dominate denominator for relationships? Where are you most drawn to ministry by similarity?

- Why is community such an important topic?
......Read Ephesians 3:7-10. How is the church to be a display of the God's glory?
......Read 1 Thessalonians 3:11-13. What is the connection between community and Christian growth?

- Spend some time praying together for First Free that God would increase our experience of community in a way that brings glory to God.
