Loving those who are different from us is difficult. But Jesus tells us loving even our enemies is the path to a flourishing life. How can we learn to love those we see as enemies - especially when they are not across the world, but next door to us?

From Series: "[w]hole"

How do we know if we're a whole person? Sin never begins full grown - it starts as seeds buried deep within us. Jesus told us a fully human life is one where we love God with our whole heart, soul, mind and strength, and to love our neighbors as ourselves. After we explore what Jesus meant by those terms, we'll see how we can use each as a lens to investigate ourselves. We'll discover the seeds of sin hiding within us so we can pluck them out before they can grow to full bloom!

We ended 2012 in the Revelation, exploring how Jesus’ coming into our lives is the End of the World as we know it. But if Jesus’ coming is the End, it’s also a new beginning. Jesus’ death and resurrection reconnect us with God, open up a world that has been lost to us since Sin entered into the world. So to kick off 2013, we’re going to dive into Genesis 1-2. We’ll explore God’s original intentions for the world, and the implications for our new life in Jesus. After all, in the new year, it’s good to get the First Things First!
