"If you want to go faster, go alone. If you want to far, go together."
-an old African proverb, referencing the undeniable significance of living our lives in community with one another.

John spoke tonight about the vision he and leadership team believe that God has provided and where He is leading Frontline, our young adult ministry at McLean Bible Church. He emphasized how important community is to our spiritual walk and a huge resource for Biblical application and accountability, citing the previously mentioned wise saying, as well as two of my favorite passages from the Bible.
The first is Hebrews 10:23-25, which says, "Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, even more as you see the Day approaching." Acts 2:42-47 is the other passage. Goodness, that is some great stuff. Today's late, late night tip for sprucing up your Monday - get your hiney over to the Rosslyn Spectrum Theater on Mondays at 7:30 P.M. for a much-needed and welcomed night of worship, teaching, and encouragement with your other brothers and sisters in Christ. Do it. You'll be so pumped afterward that falling asleep becomes somewhat of a fun little challenge [read: the reason this blog post was posted so late in the evening]. Totally worth it!
