In this second portion of the 2-part episode we begin to discuss how community ministry plays into our formation of following Jesus. If “love is the greatest marker of spiritual maturity” then how do we live this out as a community?

In this 2-part episode we start by sharing how the Lord used community ministry in our life and why we have felt called to give our lives to leading it. We also begin to prime the pump for how community ministry plays into our formation of following Jesus.
