- Faith venue (discipleship)—discipling people in the faith—small groups, discipleship classes,. Bible studies, missionary activities and

I have been enjoying these videos and when Mike talks about loving your neighbor and not do the switch and bait, but to do it in love there are 2 things that keep popping up for me. 1) Jesus died for me as well as for them so His death makes them just as important as I am and 2) Jesus loved me where I was when I was called and so He loves them where they are and He loved us so much before we even came into existence! Praise God for His Eternal Love!!
