31 Days of Favorite Quotes: We Gather

One more quote from Tony Reinke’s 12 Ways Your Phone Is Changing You, in which he comments on the importance of coming together in person with fellow Christians in this digital age, when we can be tempted to hide our true selves behind the online personas we project and avoid real-time, real-life interactions.

We gather to be seen, to feel awkward, and perhaps to feel a little unheard and underappreciated, all on purpose. In obedience to the biblical command not to forsake meeting together, we each come as one small piece, one individual member, one body part, in order to find purpose, life, and value in union with the rest of the living body of Christ.
