Genesis 1

About this sermon

We were created for community because at the heart of God himself is togetherness. From Genesis to Acts, we see that loneliness fractures us, but in Christ, God is reconciling us back to himself and to one another. This message explores the tensions the early church held—Word and Spirit, gathering and scattering, holiness and hospitality, communal and missional—and invites us to live them out at our own tables today. Check out the sermon on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or bridge.tv/sermons.
