Living on Mission – B|Family

Living on Mission – B|Family

All of the scripture passages for this week have a common theme – relationships. Not just any kind of relationships, but meaningful, heartfelt, authentic relationships. Family relationships built on love and not necessarily blood.

These passages give us key behaviors and attitudes as well as things to avoid. We’re encouraged to love, be self-controlled, and to avoid foolish and stupid arguments. These are really important to maintaining successful relationships of any kind, but are certainly crucial for deep and lasting relationships.

Are we experiencing deep and lasting relationships outside of our blood relatives? Are we ready for meaningful, heartfelt, authentic relationships?

We must get past the surface, past shallow relationships that don’t really impact our lives and dive deep into meaningful family relationships modeled for us by Jesus, Paul, and the other disciples. We can’t really B|Neighbors or B|Family unless we’re willing to open our hearts/homes/lives to the people whom God chooses for our divine intersections.

Let’s practice Living on Mission and B|Family by opening up our hearts and lives to build authentic, heartfelt relationships.
