1. Serve One Another

One of our Twelve Stones is “We Serve the Hurting.” Following Jesus means we don’t just notice the needs around us—we choose to step toward them. Jesus modeled a life of compassion and service, and as His Church, we’re called to carry one another’s burdens and love people in practical ways.

 

Read Philippians 2:5–7 & Galatians 5:13

 

Who is someone God may be inviting you to serve this week? What would it look like to put their needs before your own?

 

 

2. Carry Each Other’s Burdens

We aren’t meant to walk through life alone. Being part of the family of God means making space for one another, showing up in hard seasons, and helping carry what feels too heavy to carry alone. The Twelve Stone, “We Speak to Mountains,” reminds us that we can stand with one another in faith and believe God for what feels impossible.

 

Read Galatians 6:2

 

Is there someone in your life who may be carrying a burden right now? How can you come alongside them, help carry what feels heavy, and speak faith over their situation this week?

 

 

3. Build Each Other Up

Our words have the power to bring life to the people around us. We’re called to be intentional about encouraging others, looking out for their interests, and using our words to strengthen the people God has placed in our lives.

Read Ephesians 4:29 & Philippians 2:3–4

Who is someone in your life who could use some encouragement right now? What is one intentional way you can build them up this week?

 

 

4. Choose Forgiveness

Being in relationship with people means we will inevitably hurt and disappoint one another. But because we have experienced the forgiveness of Jesus, we are called to extend that same forgiveness to others instead of holding onto offense. Our Constitution says, “Soft are our hearts” and “Unity is our aim.” We choose to keep our hearts soft toward one another, refusing to let offense, pride, or unforgiveness create division in the family of God.

 

Read Colossians 3:13

 

Is there an offense or hurt that you’ve been holding onto? What would it look like to keep your heart soft, choose forgiveness, and take a step toward unity this week?
