A.W. Tozer emphasizes the necessity of a church family for the growth of a Christian's spiritual life, asserting that while individual encounters with God are essential, the communal experience within a local church provides the ideal environment for development and the exercise of spiritual gifts. He argues that isolation may offer some benefits, but ultimately leads to a diminished Christian experience. Tozer warns that true church communion must be rooted in faith and love, distinguishing it from mere religious institutions that lack genuine worship and connection. The sermon highlights that believers are designed for community, and the church is where the faith of Christ is most fully realized.
