The Spirit In Community
The Holy Spirit is a communal Spirit. As a Church, we’re not empowered in isolation as individuals, but rather in and for community. Through the gifts of the Spirit, we are formed into one Body together. So what might that look like for us?
Read 1 Corinthians 12:4-7, 12-14. What does Paul’s teaching on these gifts tell us about the way we’re supposed to understand our identity and build community as a Church?
While the Bible gives us a picture of a Church where every believer has a part to play, making this a reality has not always been easy. What do you see as the primary barriers to seeing everyone in the Church be empowered in their gifts?
