B.E.L.L.S.
Bless – Everyday we will bless someone in our circle of influence who doesn't know Jesus. A blessing would be anything that brings joy and a touch of kindness to a person's life. You might make an encouraging comment, give a call, send a note, pray with someone, drop by to say "hi," help with a project, etc. Be creative!
Eat – Every week or two we will eat with someone in our circle of influence who doesn't know Jesus. A meal or any social activity that is relational and includes food will do.
Listen – Everyday we will spend a few minutes in listening prayer. Just ask the Lord what he wants to say to you about your life, your family, and your friends. Write down in a journal the things that come to your heart and mind.
Learn – Everyday we will spend some time reading the Bible. In addition, we might also read in other books that strengthen our faith. We want to be "self-feeding" as people mature in Christ, not simply infants who always need someone else to spoon feed them.
Sent – We are all sent by God into the world to show the love of Jesus. We will express our sending by participating regularly in Great Oaks Community Projects and Outreaches, and by always being prepared to show Jesus' love and to share his Good News with others.
