In the early church, believers devoted themselves to the apostles' teachings, fellowship, meals, and prayer, as described in Acts 2:42-47 (NLT). They worshiped together daily, shared their resources generously, and experienced miraculous signs and wonders. This sense of community, joy, and generosity created a place of belonging for all, reflecting God's love and grace.
In our sermon, "It’s A Place To Belong," we explore the essence of church as a community where everyone is welcomed and valued. We discuss why some struggle to feel they belong—whether due to feeling inadequate or superior—and affirm that, regardless of background or past, everyone belongs in God's family. As Ephesians 2:19 (LB) states, "You belong in God’s household with every other Christian." At Innovation, we invite you to experience this belonging and discover the joy of being part of a loving, supportive community.
