Better Together
You were designed to be in relationship with God and with others. The Bible is full of stories that remind us that we are better together. But sometimes the brokenness of our world makes us think it is best for us to just try hard, look out only for ourselves and to not let anyone get too close. So even though the Bible says we are “better together,” sometimes that is hard to believe!
Thinking too much about ourselves and being fearful about what others think will hold us back from experiencing God’s design for us; living life more fully together.
You have already read about how God loves us deeply and made it possible for us to be in relationship with Him, but it gets better. He has given us details about how to live more fully when we are a part of something bigger than our individual selves. It’s like the difference between winning a basketball game by yourself or with a team. Team is better. So even though it might feel like a challenge, God tells us how to do it!
In these Bible passages, you will read about how the earliest of believers shared life, their faith, their stuff and so much more as their normal way of life. What would it look like for you to find a team of believers you could share life with, even the hardest parts?
Read
Acts 2:42-27 Acts 4:32-37
Think about this
What could it look like?
●To have fun with a group of people on a Friday night and still honor God?
● To share your struggles with a trusted believer
● To ask for help as you figure out life
● To have a team of people praying for each other
● To have a team of people encouraging each other
● To have a team of people making time to share life together
What kinds of relationships could you look for?
●Who is an older and wiser Christian you could invite into your life?
● Who are friends that are also following God?
● Is there a local church you could get involved with?
● Is there a local youth group of people your age to participate with?
These are all places to start experiencing that “team” feeling with others. The ultimate goal is to walk closely with other believers in a way that helps us all grow to reflect Jesus more.
Building a group with other believers is an important part of walking with Jesus.
