1 - Introduction - Living like a real Christian Community- The Context For Change | Page 3

Introduction Last session we saw that the church is “a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God” (1 Peter 2 v 9). It is a new humanity, a new community of people under the lordship of Christ. This week we continue with the theme of Gospel and Community, and look practically at how we Witness as a Community. (The content of this week?s devotionals was extracted from the works of various pastors and authors. Timothy Keller?s work is the main reference, but along with him we have used the materials and thoughts of Common Ground church, James Emery White, William Lane and Norwegian Settlers Church)
