There was a man who was very devout and sought God sincerely. He came to Jesus asking what was necessary to gain Eternal Life. The Jewish people had 613 Laws they attempted to live by, but Jesus summed up all that was necessary in two admonitions: 1. Love the Lord your God with all your heart. 2. Love your neighbor as yourself.
In this retreat, we’ll be looking at a very important component that is necessary for enabling us to love our neighbor as ourselves. It is closely related with knowing God’s own deep, unconditional love for us. And it is also intimately connected with our own ability to accept this love and love ourselves.
Come and learn both what hinders and helps as we move into Jesus’ invitation to Love God and Neighbor. How is this intricately interrelated to your acceptance of yourself and all your complexity?
