Loneliness is one of the greatest struggles of our time—even in a world more “connected” than ever before. In this message from our Reset series, Matthew Balentine takes us to John 13:34–35 and Acts 2:42–47 to show how Jesus’ command to “love one another as I have loved you” transforms the church into a community where no one walks alone.
From the disciples’ differences at the Last Supper to the diverse backgrounds of believers in Acts 2, we see that true fellowship is not about food or social events alone—it’s about love that unites us despite our differences.
In a culture where artificial relationships (through social media and even AI) leave people empty, Christ-centered fellowship offers the real connection our souls crave.
Whether you’re searching for belonging or looking to strengthen your church community, this sermon will encourage you to rediscover the power of fellowship as God designed it.
