And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but
encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is
drawing near. -Hebrews 10:25 (NLT)
One of the best things I ever did after joining the fellowship was to commit to a home group. I often hear people say they belong to "the best group in the fellowship" or something similar -- I guess it's great that they feel that way. In fact, I think that we should always feel that way. Join a home group right away. You're not getting married. If the group doesn't work out for you, then find another. In most places, there's more than enough to choose from.
For where two or three gather together as my followers, I am there among them.” -Matthew 18:20 (NLT)
A home group is the place where (after a while) we get to know each other very well and can tell with something is wrong or we're feeling a little off. It is the best place to start with a service commitment. Do you remember the old saying that "charity begins at home?" In much the same way, the argument can be made for a Christian attending a regular place of worship and being involved with the fellowship there regularly and intimately. "Join a Church" is one of the first things you hear after being saved.
