Elder Gowens' 9/18/22 message looks at Hebrews 12:12-17, and the importance of maintaining a collective, not an individualistic, mindset in the life of discipleship. We were redeemed for community, that is, for the church. Personal Christian maturity is displayed in a focus on serving others and laboring for the well-being of the church. This is message #48 in the Exposition of Hebrews.
