    Fellowship is so much more than potluck meals and getting together for game night. Fellowship is the selfless emersion into each others’ lives.

    There are many who have become familiar with the Greek word ’koinonia.’ The most common thing people say is that it means "fellowship." I ask you to keep that thought in mind as we go through the lesson. I want to start with a short story about something terrible that happens to some Romanian ...read more
