Discipleship 11: One Anothering
•
James Douglas
Loneliness kills. The Surgeon General calls it a crisis—like smoking 15 cigarettes a day. God said: “It is not good for man to be alone” (Gen. 2:18).
The New Testament gives 59 "one another" commands—not suggestions. The early church knew: we need each other.
The Church Must Be:
- A Loving Family – Love, bear with one another.
- A Serving Culture – Honor, serve one another.
- A Place of Encouragement – Encourage, correct one another.
- A People of Forgiveness – Forgive one another.
- A Burden-Bearing Body – Show compassion.
Disconnection destroys.
One anothering defeats isolation.
Will we live it?
