To finalize this "Soul Food" series, we end with a pressing topic of community. More importantly Christian community with the Church. Chris talks about how the church is not at all the building, but the community of people inside and out. We looked back at the beginning. Back before loudspeakers and electrical lights existed to the beginning of the Church in the second chapter of Acts. If you're longing for something more than your day to day, listen to how community in Jesus is the life changer.
