Listen Later

Are you lonely? Do you go places, perhaps even church, and feel like you just don’t fit in? In this message, Chip shares how you can begin to develop authentic, Godly relationships that can last a lifetime.

Main Points
Why are there so many people desperately hurting and in need of love, and so many others who are so willing and wanting to give love, yet so few who actually get loved? What's the missing link?
  • 6 Key Words: You are memebers of one another.
  • Thesis: To fulfill Jesus’ command to love one another, as He loved us demands that we understand our membership and function in “HIS SUPERNATURAL COMMUNITY.”
  • You are members of a supernatural community. What makes it supernatural?
    • It has a supernatural origin. --Acts 1:1-3
    • It has a supernatural agenda. --Acts 1:4-7
    • It has a supernatural power. --Acts 1:8
    • What makes it authentic community?
      • Possessing an accurate view of ourselves. --Romans 12:3
      • Key word = Vulnerability
      • Nurturing a healthy appreciation of others. --Romans 12:4-5a
      • Key word = Thankfulness
      • Practicing a loyal allegiance to one another. --Romans 12:5b
      • Key word = Commitment
      • Application:
        1. No individual Christian can function effectively by himself/herself.
        2. No member of the “supernatural community” is more or less important than anyone else.
        3. We must “get connected” in real life relationships if we are to experience the reality that “we are members of one another.”
