Sam Theophylus continues our Lenten series on community, Joy and Preparation. The Rekabites were a community in Israel that remained faithful while the culture around them was not (Jeremiah 35). Jeremiah emphasizes 1. Spirituality over religion, 2. Personal piety over communal rituals

“The person who loves their dream of community will destroy community, but the person who loves those around them will create community.” – Dietrich Bonhoeffer
