We just wrapped up the video recordings for the 1 John email series. 1 John has focused on developing fellowship with Christ. As we have been wrapping up this series, we have been looking forward to the next series we are going to record and came across this quote regarding the book of 1st John from author Duane Anderson. "Many new Christians have never grown, because they never had a spiritual parent to provide love, provide an example to follow, and help them learn to understand what parts of the Bible are like milk so they can learn to understand and apply the Word of God to their lives. I encourage new Christians to read the book of 1 John every day for a month."
This is such a good challenge - whether you are working with a new Christian or just need to be reminded of Christ's love and the fellowship we can have as children of God. If you know a new Christian, Duane goes on to encourage us to "meet with them regularly to help them understand what they are reading."
Who might you begin to work with - even just reading God's Word together?
