In this episode we feast on part 6 of 6 in building Koinonia. 

Your 44 in this episode centers around the idea that ONE (team, community, tribe) is better than ONE (individual). 

1. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 - 9 Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. 10 If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble.
   1. Story of Charles Plumb & the Parachute Packer
2. Eccesiastes 4:11 - Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone?
   1. Illustration of coals in a fire. 

ONE is better than one.

In this episode we feast on part 5 of 6 in building Koinonia. 

Your 44 in this episode centers around the perfect example of Jesus who ate and dined with anyone and everyone. But it wasn't just physical food that Jesus offered up as we see Him call himself the "Bread of Life" (John 6) and that if we eat of THIS bread we will never go hungry again. 

As we continue to build Koinonia, be reminded that our EATING TOGETHER of physical food is just as important as us EATING TOGETHER of spiritual food.
