Individualism is Defeated Every Sunday Morning

About this sermon

The isolated "Jesus-and-me" Christianity that often marks the modern digital church is nowhere to be found in the Bible. It's been fueled by our culture of individualism, where we build a completely privatized world for ourselves that allows us to do whatever we want and to do it alone. You and I simply were not created to live individually. The biblical word pictures of temple (stones joined together to be a place where God dwells) and body (each member dependent on the function of the other) decimate any idea that healthy Christianity can live outside of essential community. Where does that community take place? Every Sunday morning, in church.
