“People are not looking for a friendly church. They are looking for a church where the can make friends” (Win Arn)
Romans 12:10-16 lays out a plan for friendship. It is a picture of what life should be in the local church. These are simple verses that place a high value on relationships in the body of Christ.
The essence of friendship as proclaimed in this text is:
Kindness
Diligence
Patience
Generosity
Blessing
Empathy
Equality
Jesus is all these things to us and so much more.
