AUTHENTIC 

ONE ANOTHERING

 

Read Word of God  

 

People have many acquaintances but few real friendships- as relationships are often based on their needs, the tasks, the activities, the hobbies. They are temporal. Others may have been betrayed and hurt by those closest to them. We also often bury our thirst for genuine friendships with our busyness.

Jesus teaches us how to engage people , built relationships, serve others in intimate relationships. He became friend to Zacchaeus, Lazarus , Nicodemus, the centurion, rejected woman at the well and countless who come into his path apart from his disciples James, John, Peter, Mary and Martha..etc. There are 22 unique references on one anothering by early dsiciples and early church- ministry is family based. To live as children of God and impart the Father's love- Others focused and selfless lead to enduring shared friendships. The early church is built on friendships, freedom, flexibility and family as they have become others-focused like Jesus. It is a way of living in relationship with the Father  and God-centered - loving one another in a hostile world.

Escaping the loneliness trap

Isolation In the Communication Age

With trans border mobility and compression of travel time, internet connectivity and mobile apps, there is unlimited time and space and  more ways to connect with other people than ever before. So isn't it ironic that people feel more isolated today?

We work alongside people we don't enjoy,  still live next door to others we don't know, and even gather in worship services where many feel like just another face in the crowd. Even with close friends many of us can't seem to steer the conversation beyond our children, jobs, weather, or sports to share the depth of our spiritual lives.

In a culture that promotes isolation and autonomy, Every man for himself, take care of your own problems, and when you hurt the most it seems like everyone scatters into the busyness of their own lives.

Beginning with God's simple command to "love one another," 

ONE ANOTHERING takes it further to show you how to:

  • develop deep, genuine friendships

  • model to others a relationship with Jesus

  • create meaningful interaction with strangers

  • avoid the pitfalls of judging others

  • show people love, acceptance, kindness, and respect

     The  life-changing methods for creating healthy relationships and authentic community - based on new Testament principles that capture the essence of Jesus' teachings about effectively caring, serving, and loving one another.

    These  biblical principles and practices will transform and change your lives.

    anyway

    People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway.

    If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.

    If you are successful, you will win some false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway.

    The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow. Be good anyway.

    Honesty and frankness will make you vulnerable. Be honest and frank anyway.

    What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.

    People need help but may attack you if you try to help them. Help them anyway.

    In the final analysis, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
