Product Overview
Love God, Neighbor, Enemy Large-Scale Package
The instruction from Jesus to love God with your whole heart, soul, strength, and mind—and your neighbor as yourself—has come to be called the Great Commandment. And it is great! It is comprehensive. It is active. It is expansive. In the Love God, Neighbor, Enemy unit, we see that while enemies are not mentioned specifically, the call to love is extravagant.
Love of God and neighbor is not fully expressed if we are only loving when it is convenient or comfortable. Through the exploration of this practice, participants will learn how—from those who may be hard to love to those who we fear or who may do us harm—the imperative to love enemies, just as we love God or our neighbor, is throughout Scripture. This practice explores this call to love through action by serving a stranger, showing mercy, washing another’s feet, being courageous, and living peaceably.
The Large-Scale Package includes:
- 1 Congregational Guide
- 1 Young Children Leader’s Guide
- 1 Multiage Children Leader’s Guide
- 1 Youth Leader’s Guide
- 1 Adult Leader’s Guide
- 10 Adult Reflection Guides (Print Only)
