Who Is My Neighbor?

4 Weeks

Big Idea of the Series

We often hear the command “Love your neighbor as yourself,” but what does that mean exactly? It’s easy to love the people closest to us (at least most of the time), but how well do we show love to the people we come into contact with at the grocery store, on the highway, or even on social media? How do we treat those who are different from us, who deliberately wrong us, or seek to harm us? Jesus gave many examples of how to show love to others through his teachings, healings, and interactions with the men and women he met during his earthly ministry. In this four-week series, we will look at his example, as we ask the question, “Who is my neighbor?”

Using This Series Guide

What is the Series Guide?

The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.

Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.

This series includes 4 weeks of content.

What is the Series Guide Not?

The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.

It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.

How Do I Use this Series Guide?

We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.

Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
