How does He do that? Well, in essence, fellowship is a partnership based on our shared relationship with Christ that strives to encourage, edify, and serve one another. Let’s explore that further.
We meet like-minded people everyday – in our workplaces, churches, the gym, community groups, and even online. Some of these connections become friendships because we share a passion, a goal or an interest. But when we meet someone who shares our faith, that connection is richer. We share a relationship with our Lord and Savior!
Christian fellowship goes deeper than any friendship. As believers, we don’t just share a common faith. We share life together – the joys and the hardships. “They devoted themselves to the apostle’s teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer” (Acts 2:42, NIV). Sharing testimonies of what Christ is doing in and through us is the foundation for true fellowship.
