wE're supposed

to love who?

 Last week we discussed how loving one another is at the very heart of what it means to be a Jesus Follower. As we go on through our week, we will likely have an easy time doing that with most people. 

But Jesus didn't just call us to love the people who love us, or to construct our lives in a way where we avoid the difficult people.

So what does he tell us about treating the people who wrong us? This week were going to talk about it. 

small groups

1. Who is someone that you previously or currently are struggling with?

2. How do you think God sees them? What strengths/qualities do you think God blessed them with?

3. How might we be praying for the people were struggling with?

4. What does it mean to "do good" to the people we struggle with?
