Through the Word: Knowing God, Making Him KnownSample

Importance of Godly Community & Leaders:

As we continue to follow Jesus, one of the most powerful ways to stay strong in our faith is through connection with other believers. God has placed people in our lives to speak His truth, offer guidance, and shower us with love. This is such a blessing!

However, there may be times when we're not surrounded by godly influences or even other Christians. That’s why it’s crucial to intentionally seek out relationships with people who can speak truth into your life and encourage you in your walk with God. Finding a good church is a pivotal step in this journey. Look for a church nearby and begin attending regularly. Getting involved in a men’s or women’s group can also help you form deeper connections with leaders and others who will walk alongside you in your spiritual journey. Living a fruitful life with Jesus means surrounding yourself with people who can pour wisdom and love into your life.

Take time to pray and ask God to lead you to a church where you can grow, be encouraged, and thrive in community. Use tools like your Maps app to search for local churches, and pray for God's direction as He reveals the right place for you. No church will ever be perfect, but it is important to find a place that loves the person and presence of Jesus. When you sense His guidance, take that step and go!
