Have you ever read a passage of Scripture and totally misunderstood it, then later read it again or listened to a message and realized how wrong you were?
A couple of weeks ago we were studying the book of Ephesians at one of our neighborhood BYOB (Bring Your Own Bible) studies. We were taking turns sharing thoughts and questions and passages that stood out to us during the week when one of our neighbors turned our attention to Ephesians 4:29. We read the verse and a few of us commented and then another of our neighbors shared that she had always understood that verse to mean that cussing wasn't right unless it was really necessary to make your point or to let the person you were speaking with know that you were serious. We all thought she was joking, but she wasn't. In fact she read to us her translation of that verse.
Fellowship Project is all about BRINGING LIFE TO PEOPLE. By that we mean that we are bringing the life of Jesus into the everyday lives of ordinary people by our own prayers, presence, words, and actions. We are taking Life to them, being the Church with them, and investing ourselves in them. Our goal is to plant Christ's Kingdom here on earth until it gets mistaken for heaven.
