The Transformation of Community in the Church

Community in the church is not merely a group of people we happen to associate with but individuals we intentionally walk alongside in our faith journey. The transformative power of community is highlighted by its ability to provide exposure and encouragement. Through community, our true selves are revealed, showing both our strengths and weaknesses. This exposure is crucial for personal growth as it allows us to confront our flaws and work on becoming better individuals. The presence of others in a community acts as a mirror, reflecting our behaviors and attitudes back to us, thus aiding in our transformation and development.
