Neighboring Action Items from Final Week
We wrapped up our neighboring series with a suggestion to write your story. To write how Jesus is at work in your life. To reflect on how you can testify to His faithfulness. To consider ways your story weaves and connects to your neighbors' lives. How can you be better prepared to share Jesus, the HERO of your story?

The “Emotionally Healthy Church” series is focused on bringing together spiritual maturity and emotional health as discipleship essentials. For far too long, Jesus’ disciples in our culture have been unsure how to Biblically integrate anger, sadness and other emotions, incapable of revealing their weaknesses, threatened by or intolerant of different viewpoints, involved in failing to take care of themselves, prone to withdraw from conflict rather than resolve it.
