Together is in our Triune God's nature.

Our recent, temporary isolation is a wonderful reminder that isolation was never Jesus’ intention for his people. Rather than being stranded as individual Christians, Christ has woven his people into the beautiful, ornamented fabric that is his Church. As members of that Church, we are far better together than we are alone. This week we focus on the work Jesus has given his Church to do. Though Jesus possesses all authority in heaven and on earth, he lovingly chooses to cooperate with us in his saving work on earth. This shouldn’t surprise us when we consider the nature of our God. He is Triune—three persons in one God. Love, cooperation, and fellowship are part of his very nature. Thus, when he cooperates with us in this mission, he shares with us part of what makes him who he is.
