The Unsung Command
AND WHY IT MATTERS
Have you ever found yourself wishing the family of God felt a little more like … well, like a family?
Would it surprise you to learn that, beginning with Jesus’ command to us in the book of John, there are fifty-nine times the New Testament specifically addresses the ways we in the Church are supposed to love one another?
This study is the perfect opportunity to get together with other Christian women and dig deep into what can often be the unsung command of the Church—to love one another in the body of Christ the same way He’s loved us.
Put aside any thoughts of daily or weekly homework requirements. This study is meant to be done in person with other women, setting your own pace as a group.
My prayer is that as you wrestle out the Scriptures and questions in this workbook, as you grow in your faith and in your love for one another, and as you mentor and disciple one another, you will also see the character and nature of God in the verses and find yourself utterly captivated by His Word.
Are you ready to get out of the shallows of your faith and jump into the deep? Do you desire stronger, more close-knit relationships with others around you who are also following Christ?
This 8-lesson Bible Study for women delves extensively into Jesus’ command for Christians to love one another so fervently within the Church that unbelievers stop and take notice.
Using both the original language and cultural context of the passages, this book explores many of the 59 verses in the New Testament that describe what this kind of love should look like.
This workbook study is one that’s best done in person with other women (no homework required!), and at your own pace.
