Sermon: “Being Neighborly”
Theme: We have to choose between practicing the love of Christ or giving into our fears towards the people around us.
Purpose: The congregation will explore their anxieties and fears about the relationships in their lives.
Scriptures: Romans 12:9-21 The character of love.
Matthew 22:34-40 You shall love the Lord your God, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
Questions:
What is genuine love? How does our love for the people around us influence our relationship with God? In what ways does the way in which we relate to the neighbors with whom we are less comfortable make an impact on our relationship with Christ? How does our experience of God’s love and grace cause us to be less reactive and judgmental towards our neighbors? What do we receive from learning greater compassion and grace?
