Those who are of the Christian faith know that the “greates
t commandment” in the Bible is to love your neighbor as yourself and to love God. But what does “loving your neighbor” really mean?
A new workshop, Loving Your Neighbor as Yourself, is based on ideas in a new book by the same title and authored by Ruby Payne and Vern Reed.
With a focus on helping those who are under-resourced, workshop participants will examine what the Bible says about “orphans and widows,” why relationships are a requirement for loving one’s neighbor, the importance of mental models and hidden rules, and how to apply at church what they learn in the workshop.
Workshop participants will learn more about the causes and effects of poverty, and they will find out why helping those who need it most is at the heart of the Christian faith. Even more importantly, they will learn how to help those who are in need.
