Goal: You become a living part of a Jesus community (church).
In our culture, many people think of a building with a tower and hard pews when they hear the word "church". But that is not church! Church is the living community of all those who have Jesus at their center and follow him. Since you have lived with Jesus, you have become part of something much bigger.
📖 Acts 2:37-47
Questions:
- How is the first church described here?
- What did they do in the first church? Can you find the 12 things that the first church did?
📖 Matthew 16,18
📖 Matthew 18,20
📖 1 Corinthians 12:12-31
Questions:

- How can you get involved in the church?
- What can you contribute to the church and serve others?
