Pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer once wrote, “The Christian needs another Christian… for by himself he cannot help himself.” In this special program, Chip explains why godly, authentic community is the antidote for many Christians who feel lonely and disconnected from the Body of Christ. Hear why simply being a ‘consumer’ of a church is not enough and how forging meaningful bonds with fellow believers can transform your faith.

- The Power of Participation: True spiritual growth and discovering one's purpose come from active engagement and genuine connection within a community, not just passive consumption.
- Fulfilling Core Needs: Chip argues that fundamental human longings for connection and purpose can only be met through authentic relationships, combating widespread loneliness and depression.
- Small Groups are Key: Intimate small groups provide the essential environment for true relationships to flourish, allowing individuals to be known, supported, and transformed.
