Sermon Series: Real Relationships

Week 5

What does it truly mean to be a friend? Relationships shape who we are, but finding genuine connection can be challenging in a divided world. Explore the biblical vision of a "beautiful community" where diverse individuals are united by self-giving love. By looking at how Jesus invites us into friendship with Him, we discover practical ways to show authentic hospitality to others. Join us as we learn how to cultivate deeper connections! #Friendship #Community #Faith #Jesus #Love

FAITHWORK ASSIGNMENT

Reflect on the idea that God brings diverse people together into a beautiful community of love, and ask yourself how you can embrace and celebrate differences in your own friendships. Consider how Jesus modeled ultimate self-giving love by inviting us to be His friends, and evaluate if you are extending that same unconditional friendship to those around you. Because genuine love requires us to actively pursue hospitality and show honor to others, identify one practical way you can show honor to a friend right now and act on it.
