We all know friendships are important, but do we recognize just how valuable they really are? In this lesson, we’ll look at the way that true friendship actually help us grow – both as an individual and towards God.

God’s people are often accused of being too exclusive, trying to keep people out of the Kingdom instead of welcoming them with open arms. On at least one occasion though, three would-be disciples didn’t follow Jesus for their own reasons, proving that while the Kingdom is for all, not all will come.

As Election Day draws near, many of us are waiting anxiously to see if your candidate will be chosen. Chances are you voted for either Trump or Biden because you believe they’ll lead our nation in the way it should go, but our future doesn’t begin in the Oval Office, it starts with the family.
