EHBC'S DESIRED OUTCOMES 1, 2, 3 & 4:

How am I drawing near to the unexpected love of Jesus today?

How am I growing Christian friends who are growing me?

How are my hands open for God's use today?

EHBC'S DESIRED OUTCOME #5:

How am I sharing my faith journey with neighbors where I live, work, and play?

“The cross, therefore, is always ready; it awaits you everywhere. No matter where you may go, you cannot escape it, for wherever you go you take yourself with you and shall always find yourself.”

—Thomas à Kempis (1380-1471), The Imitation of Christ

OUTCOME #5 EXPRESSION STATEMENTS:

I pray daily for Neighboring Moments to care for and share my faith with those around me.

I know the names of my neighbors and spend enough time with them to know their current joys and struggles.

I frequently serve in EHBC neighboring events to have fun and build new relationships with people in our community.

I can’t help but share my love for EHBC with others and regularly invite them to attend with me.

I take every opportunity God is giving me to proactively share the gospel in a clear and compelling way.

TODAY'S OUTLINE ON SHARING MY JOURNEY:

TAKE IT HOME QUESTIONS FOR THIS WEEK:
