In this series, Mark Crow shares three components that are interconnected and necessary to form lasting biblical community.
Relationship - connecting to one another and working to achieve our common goals and dreams.
Discipleship - developing who we are in character and Christian living
Leadership - teaching others to do what we have done and what we have paid the price to do; passing along what we have learned to the next generation.
"You have heard me teach many things...Teach these great truths to trustworthy people who are able to pass them on to others." (2 Timothy 2:2 NLT)
