In this episode of The Field Guide for Kingdom Families Podcast, we talk about the necessity of community for spiritual growth. Just as we cannot grow apart from abiding in Jesus, we cannot sustain growth in isolation. We share from our experiences, notably of how conflict in community can lead to true unity.
