“Saints cannot exist without a community, they require, like all of us, nurturance by a people who, while often unfaithful, preserve the habits necessary to learn the story of God.”
— Stanley Hauerwas
We understand life is relational and meant for communion and so we turn from isolation and the ethos of individualism. Following Jesus was never meant to be a solo process of individual spirituality. Therefore, we affirm relationships and community as the necessary environment for Christian growth. We receive one another as the gift of God and entrust ourselves into the difficult vulnerability of real and honest relationships. We seek to embody God’s vision of a diverse kingdom, rejoicing in friendships that cross divides of race, status or economics.
You can’t participate in Habitus alone. At the core of the Habitus Community is the trio, a weekly gathering of 3 (at most 4) people who become friends, helping each other to be apprentices of Jesus.
