  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Hi,

My church doesn't have small group that is relational based. They focus on bible study only.

I am looking for a small group that is relational and focus more on spiritual formation.
Is there any such inter-church small group like that?

Blessings.

Many today are looking for real Koinonia...our eldest son started such a group
at his church a couple of years ago...perhaps this is something you can prayerfully consider doing?

Also check out this place: Koinonia Farm
and if possible, do a visit to the farm.

Hi Kit,

Do you have more info on the koinonia group that you son started? Was it modeled based on the farm?

Thanks for the link to Koinonia Farm.

No...it's a gathering or group of believers doing: Acts 2:42, Colossians 3:16, Philippians 2:1-2, Hebrews 10:24 etc.

Koinonia they do involves sharing a meal, bible teaching/reading/study, praying
one for another/encouraging one another, singing hymns/psalms etc.

I included about the Koinonia farm to show how some others have
chosen to do koinonia.
