Description
About the Book
What should a Christ-centred community look like?
Apostolic Community examines this important question by exploring the relationship between the teachings of Jesus Christ, the early Church and the communities established by the apostles.
At the heart of the book is a significant question: Did the early Church faithfully preserve and represent the teachings of Jesus during the period of oral transmission before they were written down?
The book goes beyond this historical question to examine what it means for believers today to establish communities that reflect God’s Kingdom through faith, love, unity, accountability and obedience.
In a rapidly changing world where genuine community is increasingly important, Apostolic Community presents a biblical model of community that seeks to transform and empower individuals while creating an environment where God’s purposes can flourish.
The book explores the importance of family, the identity of sons, the dangers of an orphan mindset, prophetic and apostolic roles, the principles required to sustain healthy spiritual communities and the threats that can weaken them.

A Call to Kingdom Community
The Apostolic Community is more than a gathering of believers. It is a people called to reflect the character, purposes and values of God’s Kingdom.
