Do you sit in a full sanctuary and still feel completely alone? We go to church to find community, but so often we find a crowd of friendly strangers. We've become experts in acquaintanceship but amateurs in the art of true fellowship. We've traded the messy, life-giving work of bearing one another's burdens for the clean, convenient, and hollow "like" button. The ache you feel is real. And it's not a new problem. In *The One Anothers*, pastor and author Lucas Alexander Caldwell reveals that God has already given us the divine blueprint for solving it. The answer isn't a new program; it's a return to God's essential, non-negotiable architecture for a community that breathes the Gospel: the "one another" commands. This book is a practical, grace-filled journey to move your church from a crowd of strangers to a thriving family. Inside, you will: Lay the Foundation: Move beyond performance-based love to the radical, Christ-like command to "love one another" and "accept one another".Adopt a Humble Posture: Learn to "serve one another", "honor one another", and "be kind" in a world obsessed with self.Do the Restorative Work: Discover the grit to "bear with one another", the grace to "forgive one another", and the courage to "admonish one another".Fuel the Journey: Practice the life-giving commands to "encourage one another", "spur one another on", and offer life-changing "hospitality".**Includes a complete, practical Small Group Leader's Guide** perfect for an 8- to 14-week study.
