The sum of all of the Law and Prophets (the Hebrew Scriptures) can be boiled down to just two things: 1) Love God above all. 2) Love your neighbor as yourself. You could even try to combine them into one command to love God so much that you also love what He loves. We’ve spent 10 weeks exploring Prayer, and now we begin to see how drawing close to God’s heart can affect what we love (Care).
30 weeks divided into three, 10-week series. When a Jesus-follower chooses to be a friend, he/ she will devote themselves to three things: prayer, care, share. We will be using the resource, Be Jesus in Your Neighborhood by Alvin VanderGriend as a supplement to the 1more Friend 30-week series. Using the 30-day devotional as a 30-week devotional as a sort of “playbook” for missional living, everybody will grow in what it means in real time to be a “friend.”
