Start With Hello

Jesus summarized the whole of the Law and Prophets in two commands: love God and love your neighbor. And 1 John reminds us that our ability to love begins with God's love for us. Neighboring doesn't need to be overwhelming—it just needs to begin. Sometimes, it starts as simply as saying hello. But between busyness, awkwardness, and fear, many of us get stuck. This week, we reflect on how to take that first step toward connection.
