The Church and Serving the Community Project

Create an APA-formatted paper of 3-4 pages in length. Before developing your paper, read 1 John 2:6. Visit the websites below and review the approaches taken by these congregations in ministering to their local communities.

Crossings Community Church of God, Oklahoma City, OK – www.crossingsokc.org
Elk City Church of God, Elk City, OK – www.eccogok.org
Sherman Street Church of God, Anderson, IN – www.shermancog.org

Reflecting on your reading of 1 John 2:6 and your website observations, provide 3 to 4 examples of how such outreach could be “lived out” in your community. Support your response with specific biblical passages. In addition, include your personal reflections on the following questions:

  • “To what extent should the local church focus on serving their community?”
  • “Why are some churches able to reach communities better than others?”
  • “Is the size of the congregation a major factor in how a church can serve its community?”
  • “How do resources impact the ability of a congregation to serve its community?”
