Be a Family at a Table

Mar 1, 2026    Joseph Rangel

Jesus redefines family—not by blood, but by belonging. Jesus looks at the circle around Him and says, “Here are my mother and my brothers… whoever does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.” Inpsired by Practicing the Way's Community Practice Course.


We live in a culture shaped by radical individualism—trained to prioritize the individual over the community. But loneliness isn’t just a social problem. It sabotages spiritual growth.


This sermon introduces The Community Practice: the intentional discipline of building table-shaped, kin-style relationships where people eat, laugh, pray, worship, and follow Jesus together.


Because you can’t apprentice Jesus alone.
