Community and the Cross

  [Bob's Blog]

Christianity is all about relationships: with God and with others...The true basis for all fellowship is when two or more persons kneel at the foot of the Christ's cross, trusting only in his mercy and love. At that point of reality, we come to see how our sins crucified Christ and how they wound his body, the church, today.

 
The cross is the heart of all fellowship, and it is only through the cross that fellowship is deepened and matured. This will involve the frequent and painful crucifixion of self in all its forms--self-seeking, self-centeredness, self-righteousness--and the willingness to remain vulnerable in open fellowship with other Christians. (Called and Committed by David Watson)
