As I was reading through Numbers, the phrase "each in position under the appropriate family banner" stood out to me. Then I continued on to discover the plan God had for the Israelites to camp around the tabernacle and how to break camp and move on. And as I pondered this, I began to see how God's design wasn't just for who walks first in a procession, but about building communities.
You see it wasn't that the groups shared an ancestor, it was that these people shared a life. They set up camps near the same people. The travelled with the same people. They lived their lives with these neighbors.
Then I began to wonder, "Who do I share my life with? Who is my community?"
Listen in to join our time of reflection, not just on who our neighbors are, but on God's great design for community as well.
Bible verses referred to in this episode:
