Pastor Paul describes the sermon as : We are called to fellowship. We are to be working together in Christ. The Apostle Paul has shown us some ways to have positive fellowship. First, we should have “common spirituality.” We find our first point of connection in our identity together in Christ Jesus. From there, we should have “common growth.” Our connection to each other is strengthened as we grow together in the Lord. Third, we find a “common purpose.” As we grow together, we find a passion for serving Christ and sharing the message of Jesus with others. As we find this common purpose, our fellowship will be strengthened. As our fellowship grows in a positive way, others will want the fellowship that we have. This becomes another way to attract others to the message of Jesus.
Paul used the following scriptures: Philippians 1:3-8
