Resources to Enhance Your Journey

The BLESS Initiative is a new approach to prayer and sharing Jesus with others. It’s less about downloading information or memorizing scripts, and more about loving our neighbors well. It helps us get “unstuck” and practice sharing God’s love more effortlessly. BLESS is an intentional pathway for persons of all ages who follow Jesus to become like Jesus and join the mission of Jesus.

 

B - Begin with Prayer: It is not only how you discover your mission, it is also how you go about carrying out your mission.

​

L - Listen with Care: When you listen to someone's hopes, challenges, and dreams, you are giving them a tremendous gift.

 

E - Eat Together: There may be no activity that moves people from being acquaintances to friends more quickly than sharing a meal.

 

S - Serve in Love: Serving others you encounter in your day to day life speaks louder than words could ever manage to.

 

S - Share Your Story: Sharing your story of how you made your way to God can impact the lives of others in powerful ways.  

 

Our goal is to equip you in as many ways as possible to BLESS your neighbors! Below you'll find links to a number of resources that can help you deepen your experience as we go through this exciting new series. And best of all, it'll become an integral part of who we are at Eden.
