I was watching Trolls Band Together and an unexpected thing stood out to me — the value of community.
Key points
  • Russ Matthews takes 60 seconds in a new devotional to focus on the value of community

I know it might be hard to believe I could get that from a Trolls movie, but it did show that the only way that most of us can survive in life is through the care and support of the community around us.

Did you know that throughout the Bible, there are key figures who have been championed in our culture, but all of them are only able to achieve their goals by relying on the community around them.

Moses, David, Gideon, and even Jesus are great in their own way, but even they saw the value of the community around them to do their work.

“No man is an island” is a proverb that is supported by the Word of God.

How about you? Do you see the value of your community today?
