Acts 2:46
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts.
Fellowship is meant for more than just one day of the week and for more than just one place.
Sunday should not be all. Our lives should be lived as a fellowship every day.
In New Testament times, that meant meeting together at the temple courts daily. For us, today, it will look different, but the daily surely should not change to weekly or monthly.
Then, they broke bread together in their homes. They invited each other into their personal lives. The fellowship went beyond the temple courts. American church fails at this.
We have categorized our lives into church, home, work, play. We dare not have those mix together. We go to church once a week, to hear a message, and we leave.
How can we have true fellowship if we are not inviting people in or being invited ourselves?
Fellowship must go beyond the church doors and into our homes in order to have its full effect.
