A few months ago I had a conversation with a friend who had been discussing the actions a community would take to actually be living into a communal lifestyle with each other. I realize that the less we are intentional about communal living and literally sharing life together....the more we become self absorbed and self reliant.
At our small group last night, we discussed what it means to be intentional and how we could live in to that calling more intentionally. Some ladies talked about helping decorate another ladies house, men talked about house chores that could get done faster with more guys to help. It was beautiful to actually open up and have this conversation each other. I believe it is a first to what could be.
What does it look like as we continue this journey as Revolutionaries in this postmodern world? What will it truly be like to live in real community? What will it look like to live out Acts 2:44?

It is a really radical thought to live communal life with other fellow believers. Can you imagine if we all had that kind of mindset? Think of the resources that would be pulled together. "You need clothes, no prob come over here, I have some you can have.", "Great, can I help you with that?" The possibilities are endless. If we were to really live our lives in a "community", we would share each others burdens, resources, hurts and our joys. We could truely be a new testatment church
