Why the Winning Spelling Bee Word, ‘Koinonia,’ Is So Easy for Christians

Source: christianitytoday.com - Friday, June 01, 2018 The Greek word is common church lingo for fellowship and community.

Christianity Today has reported on Koinonia Farms , an intentional community in Georgia that went on to launch Habit for Humanity, as well as Koinonia House , an aftercare program for previously incarcerated women. Christians have adopted the word koinonia from the Greek New Testament, where it is translated as fellowship, communion, or partnership. It’s the word behind All Related
