About the Series

September-November 2025

Loving our neighbors isn’t just a good thought—it’s the second half of the greatest commandment and the way we see our love for God play out in our everyday lives. As we follow Jesus, a deep love for our neighbors—those who inhabit our lives and our stories—begins to well up in our souls and we see people more and more the way Jesus does.

This fall, we’ll journey into the life of Christ and look at the characteristics of neighboring. By looking at how Jesus interacted with people, how He pursued people, and what moved His heart, we’ll develop a deeper desire to emulate Him as we are also Becoming: Neighbors.

Scripture References: Deuteronomy 1:6-8

From Series: "The Thread Between"

As followers of Jesus, we can look back on our lives and point to specific moments in which the Lord worked in our lives or in our church in unique—and even sometimes, miraculous—ways. Those moments are significant. They stand out in our memories, and they give us fuel to keep moving forward when things get difficult. The evidence of God’s work in our lives leads us to celebrate those moments and to even long for the next one, praying that God will continue to do unique things in our lives and in the life of our church. Many times, as we look at those high points, we miss the everyday, ongoing process of faithfully following Jesus. The practice of allowing Jesus to transform us through His Word, gathering with other Christians, and investing faithfully in His work can get lost as we search for the next big moment. But it’s that consistent, faithful approach—continually valuing the things Jesus sees as important—and the implementation of making those habits a part of our lives that brings the space and opportunity for God to do unique and special things through us. It’s the thread between the moments.
