Now at Ascension

We're a People Joined

Pastor Ben Berger - 2/12/2023

It's important to be connected to other people. We know it's true from experience. But oddly enough, in our hyper-connected culture, genuine connection can be hard to find, as we tend confuse the occasional like or share or retweet for truly shared living.

Does this influence what it means to be a Christian? What about the natural inward incline, the self-centered "me" syndrome that afflicts everyone? Christians can't afford to cast aside these questions as unimportant or secondary. On the contrary, connectedness is part of the Christian identity. Being connected in Christ is key to Christian purpose and experience. Being joined to Christ means being joined with, and for, one another.

This is the second message in our Vision series and explores Paul's words in Ephesians 4:7-16.
