Vital Step to a Radiant Faith-Devotion to Church Fellowship
JOHN SHIRK – In the Year to Shine, today’s Vital Step to a Radiant Faith is Devotion to Church Fellowship.
The church is God’s plan for advancing the Gospel around the world. By participating in fellowship, we can build healthy relationships that become a support structure for each other in the faith.
The church is not perfect. There are plenty of flaws in church history to document that fact. But God still works through imperfect people to spread the word of His perfect love. And we get to be part of what God is doing in the church.
Acts 2:42 reveals what happened among believers in the early church. “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” The Lord was adding to their number daily those who were being saved. The devotion of those disciples to fellowship was one of the factors that contributed to the vibrant influence of the early church.
Devotion to church fellowship is a vital step to a radiant faith that makes a difference in our world.
