In Episode 4 of our BUILT series, we explore a truth that runs throughout the New Testament: God never intended for us to follow Jesus alone.

Hebrews 10:24-25 reminds believers to encourage one another, provoke one another toward love and good deeds, and remain connected to the community of faith. In a culture that often treats faith as a private matter, Scripture presents a different vision—one where spiritual growth happens through authentic relationships and people developing people.

In this episode, Pastor Evan Ryder discusses why Christian community is essential for spiritual growth, how encouragement strengthens us during life's storms, and why isolation can weaken our faith. You'll discover how God uses ordinary relationships, conversations, prayers, and acts of support to help us become more like Jesus.

If storms reveal our foundation, then authentic relationships are one of the ways God strengthens that foundation over time.
