Communally Formed (Pastor Cheryl Lavornia)

When we read a scriptural text that talks about hosueholds, it’s easy for us to overlay our 21st century understandings into the text. But, when Jesus talks about the idea of households and families, he’s referring to a 1st-century idea called “oikos” in the Greek. As Pastor Cheryl helps us reframe our understanding of the oikos that Jesus invites us to participate in, it will re-shape our understandings of community, family, and the church.
