I wish Rebecca George would’ve written this book before I had the crazy idea to start a neighborhood Bible study. I could have used a coach like her when I had no idea where to start or what to do, when it felt overwhelming and scary. If I’d had just a little more gumption and realized just how much grace was there to help me, I might not have put off this Great. Big. Goal. for as long as I did.
Is it the season to be busy? Overwhelmed? Overcommitted? Is it the season for celebrating “God with us,” or complaining about others with us in line at the grocery store and the post office? Planning presents and fancy Christmas dinners takes a lot out of a gal. Christmas doesn’t have to be so hard.
Join me along with church leaders in the San Diego area for a “Love Your Neighbor” Summit on October 6-7.
Not knowing what to do is nothing new, and neither is this strategy for figuring out how to handle a crisis. Read 2 Chronicles 20 for the back story, then apply it to the situation that is plaguing you today.
They say, “God won’t give you more than you can handle.”
My beautiful friend (and my literary agent) Blythe Daniel and her precious mother, Dr. Helen McIntosh, have written a beautiful book to help us express exactly what makes our mama’s so special.
Have you ever heard the audible voice of God? The closest I’ve ever come was an unforgettable moment when He directed me to look out my window at the women around my home.
You know why I wrote How to Love Your Neighbor Without Being Weird? Because I was a bad neighbor, and I was definitely weird. Here’s how God dealt with my reluctance to lay my daily planner on the altar, as featured in a guest post with my friend Twyla at The Uncommon Normal.
For just a few seconds, I almost forgot.
Share the love in your neighborhood this February by accepting the Love Your Neighbor Challenge!
