Next Steps:
Join Cornerstone’s “Journey through the New Testament” by committing to read 5 chapters/week throughout 2021.
Ask God to lead you to a mentor who can help you continue growing as a follower of Jesus (If you already have a mentor, continue to invest in that relationship.)
Create a “healthy opposites list” from 2 Timothy 3:2-5 and ask God to help you keep growing in the right direction. (Share your insights with a trusted friend.)
Consider how the original characters in the Christmas story were living as they waited for Jesus’ 1st coming – then compare your findings with how God intends for us to live as we wait for His 2nd coming.
