If video above doesn't appear, go here . So many people trying to find friendship and community. Here's a thought. Instead of trying to "find" community, what if instead you sought to "build" community right where you live , work , play , and church ? But how does one "build" community? As a general rule, I try to take all of my questions to Jesus and the Bible.  So, how did Jesus "build" community?   This is where I invite you to do your own study on how Jesus used meals to connect with people. At a minimum, you could quickly search " Jesus eating. " What can we say with certainty about Jesus and eating in the Bible?

Brand New: The M.A.D. Student Bible

Image
Sometime ago, my dear friend,  Dr. Ken Castor , invited me and 29 others to participate in creating a brand new out-of-the-box study Bible for the next generation.   The Make a Difference student Bible    is hot off the press!  Here's WHY the M.A.D Bible is so needed right now . There's never been a study Bible for students quite like the M.A.D (Make a Difference) Bible ! It was so much fun to contribute to this Bible especially for students . I loved helping to write the introduction to the Old Testament and the introduction to the book of Leviticus. Yeah. That's right. Leviticus . There's so much to unpack about the M.A.D. Bible ! (Click on image above for viewing and reading.) Did I mention that this M.A.D study Bible is for the next generation —so they can "make a difference" for Jesus Christ in the world? Hanging out with Dr. Ken Castor at Ignite Youth Leadership Conference . Explore more about the M.A.D Bible here... Instagram Facebook Get yours at www.
