“What if Jesus meant that we should love our actual neighbors?”
This is the question authors Jay Pathak & Dave Runyon ask us in their excellent book The Art of Neighboring: Building Genuine Relationships Right Outside Your Door.
I’d encourage you to read it.
In Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus is asked about the greatest commandment – and his answer, as most of us know, is “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind… and the second is like it: Love your neighbor as yourself.”
I’ve been thinking a lot about the Bible lately in preparation for our new teaching series that starts on Jan 4 at Brentwood and Franklin called “The Word of God – Written, Living, Active.”

What are you particularly thankful for this Thanksgiving? An informal Twitter survey earlier this year revealed these simple words among America’s top 10: “Life,” “Family,” Friends,” “God,” “People,” “Love,” “Today.” There’s no question we have an enormous amount to be grateful for. But have you ever contemplated what you’re most thankful for as a leader? Here are some of mine. I hope they inspire you toward being a more thankful leader this Thanksgiving season (and this is a great time of year to express gratitude to those we lead).
This season instead of running to our default which mainly consists of caffeine and white knuckled survival, we are attempting to “Advent.”
