The dominate culture in the US prizes freedom and choice above all else which has led us to have one of the most individual oriented cultures. Garret Kell’s article entitled The Second-Most Important Book for Every Christian is a great antidote to the individual focus we are exposed to. What is the second most important book? Your church directory. The directory represents a vital community of belonging and service.
Do not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
–Hebrews 10:25, ESV
