Holy Habits: Eating Together

Description

At first glance, the Holy Habit of eating together seems like an easy one. Many of us enjoy eating together with family and friends and it is often a regular feature of church life. But this Holy Habit invites us to do more than simply consume food, it invites us to explore how we eat together and with whom.

Holy Habits is an initiative to nurture Christian discipleship. It explores Luke’s model of church found in Acts 2:42 – 47, identifies ten habits and encourages the development of a way of life formed by them. The habits are: biblical teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, sharing of resources, service, eating together, gladness and generosity, worship, prayer and making more disciples. The resources have been developed to help churches explore the habits in worship and other group activities (all-age or age-specific) and live out the habits in whole life, missional discipleship

“They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favour of all the people.”
