 Welcome to Brown Chapel/Avant, Mt. Pleasant & Shiloh

Prayer: Pastor Baggett

Scripture: Hebrews 10:24-25 - And let us consider on another to provoke unto love and to goo works:  Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another and so much the more, a ye see the day approaching.

Subject: The Importance of Community

• Have we lost our ability of community?
• We have become disconnected from one another.
• Community is important because it allows us to remain strong.
• Christianity is not a walk alone journey.
• Brothers and sisters walking together not walking alone.
• The enemy loves for us to be in isolation.
• Isolation weakens us so that the enemy can step in.
• Community causes us to support one another, to love, to reach out to one another.
• Everybody needs somebody.
• Community tends to encourage us through difficult times.
• In darker times we need one another.
• Community offers words of encouragement, a song of praise, lending a helping hand, a spiritual support.
• In natural disasters, a community that pulls together tends to rise above, in spirit, even in that crisis.
• Do not forsake the community's power.
• I need Thee every hour as the psalmist sang.
• And we need one another as well.
• Forward together, not one step back!
•
