God has BLESSed us in order that we might BLESS others. BLESS focuses on five missional practices we can engage in on a daily basis to join in God’s mission.
Begin with Prayer Pray for the people you interact with on a daily basis, especially those who don’t know God. Ask God, “How do you want to use me to bless the people in my life?” Listen with Care People want to be heard. Pay attention to others’ hurts, hopes, and dreams. Listen for evidence of God’s work in their lives. Eat Together A shared meal expresses welcome, builds relationship, and makes space for conversation. Serve with Love Be attentive to opportunities God provides you to care for people and attend to their needs. Share Your Story Your greatest witness is your own unique story. Look for ways you can share how Jesus is transforming your life and world. For more info visit CovChurch.org/BLESS |
BLESS Groups are about practicing these five habits together. Here's what happens at a BLESS Group:
Gather A host opens their home and coordinates the meal. Eat We gather around the table for a shared meal, allowing time for informal conversation. Ask We ask the same three questions at each gathering. Each guest is encouraged to answer at least one. 1. How is God working in you? How has God BLESSed you recently? 2. How is God working around you? How is God BLESSing your neighbors, friends, family, etc? 3. How is God working through you? How is God using you to BLESS others? BLESS What is 1 step I can take to be a BLESSing this week? Pray We close by praying for each other. |
