Key Element for Thriving Relationships-Fellowship
JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Key Element for Thriving Relationships is Fellowship.
In the Bible, fellowship refers to meaningful connections that lead to spiritual growth among followers of Jesus.
In this type of relationship, we have opportunity to walk with other brothers and sisters in Christ to share how the Lord is working in our lives. We can encourage each other to grow more mature in the grace of God. Jesus is at the center of true and meaningful fellowship that unites God’s people in love and purpose.
A relationship with God opens the door for these kinds of relationships to develop. First John 1:3 says, “We proclaim to you what we have seen and heard, so that you also may have fellowship with us. And our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son, Jesus Christ.” First John 1:7 says, “If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.”
Fellowship is a key element for thriving relationships that honor God.
