What would it look like if Christians took the scriptures seriously and imitated God? How many people would experience unconditional love by simply being around you? Jesus said His true followers would be known by their love for others.

Becoming a Jesus follower leads to your divine purpose and healing to our communities. Discover who you were created to be by pursuing intimacy with God. It is time to imitate Jesus as Christ followers.

The world needs to experience the love of Jesus through you and me. "Walk in love therefore be imitators of God as dear children." Ephesians 5:1
