Many of us deal with loneliness and isolation. You are not alone in this. We are all asking, "Who is my community and where do I belong?"  

The Bible shows the significance of belonging from the earliest parts of our human story—God designed us to be relational beings, made to belong to God and others. We are created in community—“let us make man in our image” (Genesis 1:26)—and for community—“it is not good that the man should be alone” (Genesis 2:18).

In this 5-day reading plan, you'll unlock five practices to cultivate biblical community.
