Vision: Our Shared Calling
Vision: Our Shared Calling
As Soma turns 20, we’re looking back at the ways God has faithfully written our story and leaning forward to all he still wants to do in and through us. God has richly, abundantly, and freely given to us, over and against what we have earned or deserved, and has chosen in his kindness to cause this work to be fruitful -- and we are grateful! Over the month of September we’re looking at a key text — Ephesians 4.1-16 — and asking God to do it again, doing what only he can do as we get low, dependent, and go ALL IN for Jesus and his mission. This week we explore our Shared Calling, asking how we walk worthy of the unique glory of being the church in the nitty-gritty of real community.
Community Discussion
Read Ephesians 4.1-16 together. What is true about God and his work for us?
Consider the main command in 4.1: walk worthy of the calling. What do you hear?
What sort of community life is Paul describing for us in v.2? What marks gospel community?
Which of those marks do you want to grow in this year, and how?
Take a look at the Twenty Journal. What will you commit to together this month?
