I appreciate how this lesson connects belonging in the family of God with practical fellowship, access by the Spirit, and the use of spiritual gifts. The reminder to note what we learn and discuss it with our cohort makes the call to “belong to one another” especially actionable.

The reminder that believers have shared access to the Father through the Spirit makes the “family of God” more than a metaphor—it’s a lived relationship. I especially appreciate the call to identify spiritual gifts and discuss how to put them into practice with the cohort.
