The Power of Faith in Building a New Community

Building Community by Faith in McKinney

Moving to McKinney can feel like a fresh start, but let’s face it—rebuilding your community can be hard. Forming new relationships and connections might take time, but as followers of Christ, we have a clear blueprint for how to do this: through intentional relationships built on love, faith, and service.

The Example of Jesus: Relationships First

One of the most powerful examples of community-building in scripture is found in the ministry of Jesus. He made it a point to meet people where they were—whether they were fishermen, tax collectors, or women drawing water from a well. Jesus’ approach wasn’t transactional; He formed lasting relationships based on mutual trust and compassion.

As you settle into McKinney, you can model the same relational intentionality. Attend events, volunteer, and engage with people in meaningful ways. Our church provides opportunities through small groups, Bible studies, and community outreach, where you can meet people who share your values.

Connecting Beyond the Surface

True community goes beyond small talk. It requires intentional investment in others’ lives. As Hebrews 10:24-25 encourages us, “Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together.” Our faith is meant to be lived out together, and at Evident Faith Church, you’ll find that relationships built on faith provide the support and belonging we all need.
