Normal? Who's normal? Not you, that's for sure! No one you've ever met, either. None of us are normal according to God's definition, and the closer we get to each other, the plainer that is. Yet for all our quirks, sins, and jagged edges, we need each other. Community is more that just a word - it is one of our most fundamental requirements. So how do flawed, abnormal people such as oursleves master the forces that can drive us apart and come together in the life-changing relaltionships God designed us for?
In this book you will gain widsom and tools for drawing closer to others in powerful, impactul ways. With humour, insight, and a gift for storytelling, Ortberg shows how community pays tremendous dividends in happiness, health, support, and growth. It's where all of us weird, unwieldy people encounter God's love in tangible ways and discover the transforming power of being loved, accepted, and valued just the way we are.
