Spiritual growth isn’t a solo journey—it happens in the soil of committed relationships. In a culture that often runs from conflict, avoids vulnerability, and prioritizes convenience, the gospel calls us to something deeper: staying together to grow.

In this final message of our Community Practices series, we explore how long-term, honest, and stable relationships are essential for spiritual formation. From the early church in Corinth to our modern gatherings, God has always used community to shape His people. Through love, truth, confession, forgiveness, and shared rhythms, we are formed into the image of Christ—not alone, but together.

This sermon will challenge us to resist the drift of isolation and instead lean into the kind of community where real growth happens: not fast, not flashy, but faithful. Because when we stay together, we don’t just survive—we grow.
