Mike Erre and Tim Stafford conclude their Bible Series by delving into how interpreting Scripture within community leads to true transformation. They explore the vital role of embodying the values of Community, Cross, and New Creation in today's church. Join them as they discuss how discipleship is a collective journey toward becoming fully human in Christ, and how the fruitfulness of a community reflects the fidelity of its biblical interpretation.

Key Takeaways:

• Discipleship as a Communal Practice – Understanding that learning to follow Jesus is not an individual endeavor but a shared experience within a supportive community.
• Community, Cross, and New Creation – Exploring Richard B. Hays' three markers that guide faithful interpretation of Scripture and shape the mission of the church.
• Fruitfulness Reflects Fidelity – How the character and actions of a community indicate the integrity of its engagement with the Bible.
• Embodying a Cross-Shaped Life – Embracing humility, sacrifice, and love as modeled by Jesus, and living out these values in relationship with others.
• Living at the Intersection of Ages – Recognizing the tension of the "now and not yet" and participating in New Creation dynamics in our daily lives.

Resources Mentioned:

• Richard B. Hays – The Moral Vision of the New Testament
• Romans 12 – A blueprint for New Creation living
• Tim Gombis – Insights on Romans and New Creation
