The Community of Believers with Rev. Sam Allberry

Independence and individualism are strongly ingrained in American culture, but the Bible emphasizes interdependence and community. Neither the church, the life of Christian discipleship, nor mission can flourish apart from an authentic community of believers. There are many obstacles to community in our day, but they must be overcome if we are to be and do all that God asks of us, and they can be overcome once we recognize the importance of community and commit ourselves to it. This lecture was delivered to the C.S. Lewis Institute Fellows of Chicago on Apr. 3, 2021.
