Be a Friend (8/6/23)

Going Through the Motions of Relationships - Be a Friend (Luke 7:33-34 & 36-50)

Going deeper in relationship requires eyes that see people - really see people. And in this story, you have movement of the woman from being known as a great "sinner" (v39) to a woman who shows great love (v47). When you really love one another - when you really love others - you want them to be in the presence of Jesus, to be "at the table" with Jesus. What does it take to be a great friend? Jesus was called a friend of sinners. Could the same be said of us? Who are the friends you are loving toward Jesus? Spiritual depth is directly tied to personal friendships. Where are you investing?
