Revised Common Lectionary reflection, Nov. 19, 2017
When we edify and encourage one another — through mutual prayer, strong friendships and small groups, worshiping together, serving side-by-side, and sharing our time, talent, and resources — we all become stronger. We are more likely, though the gift of a strong community, to use our talents and take greater risks with more confidence to multiply all that God has given us. We are truly better together.
