BIBLICAL FELLOWSHIP
United
Methodist Bishop Lance Webb once defined Biblical fellowship -- ‘koinonia’ --
as "a deep mutual sharing together with Christ of our joys and sorrows,
our sins and struggles and victories. Koinonia is experiencing the redemptive
fellowship in Christ which nourishes, sustains, guides, rebukes, and
understands each participant in an atmosphere of love and equality. Koinonia is
Christ-empowered fellowship with the focus on ministry in and for the whole
world. The small group offers the best possibility for the experiencing of
genuine koinonia. Some would even declare that 'true Christian fellowship is
possible only in small groups’."
