Imitating Christ's own example, our lives should have an inside-out order, with devotion to Christ (solitude) flowing into devotion to community and devotion to the gospel (ministry).
The Holy Trinity, the imago dei, and our in-Christ life all provide the necessary foundations for a biblically based community, a community rooted in an understanding that every person's greatest need is to know God.
Ken Boa launches a new series on "Corporate Spirituality," focused on our growth in faith in the context of community. Our ability to love, serve others, and edify (and be edified in) the body of Christ must overflow from our own relationship with and security in Christ.
