B.L.E.S.S. - Loving Your Neighbor and Changing the World
Since the beginning of mankind's story with God, God has demonstrated his deep love for people through His blessing. God passed that mission on to every follower of Jesus and commanded us to bless others. We have been blessed to be a blessing to others. Blessing others doesn't have to be complicated. It can be as easy as using five practices that are already a part of your everyday life. Blessing others is the greatest example of loving your neighbor and when you love your neighbor you can exact change in the world. Join us Sundays, 10:00 a.m., at the Lifeway Campus or on Lifeway at Home.

Mondegreen - a misheard word or phrase that makes sense in your head but is entirely incorrect.
When we don’t listen carefully we don’t respond appropriately.
When we don’t listen, people not only feel unheard, they begin to feel unknown.
Most people don’t want your expertise, they want your support.
Unheard + unknown = unloved
Listening to understand creates relationships and demonstrates love.
The right place, at the right time, is the place God puts you when you are doing his will.
Wherever you are be aware of who’s there with you.
When God puts you in that place, he also puts that place on your mind.
You don’t bless others by determine how to leverage them for yourself, you bless others by determining how you’re going to leverage yourself for them.
Learn to listen better.
listen + known = loved
If we’re going to carry out the mission to bless others, then we must tune into the needs of the people God has put in our lives.
