Relationship Status: With The Overlooked

We all have relationships in our lives that we tend to avoid.
Whether it's an ex, a co-worker, or maybe even a family member,
we do our best to stay away from these people and navigate our
lives around them. Sometimes this is from past hurt, but often
it's because we feel these people are a waste of our time. It
sounds harsh but is often true. We all have a tendency to be
transactional in our relationship. To love the people who are
easy to love and to avoid the people that are hard to love. God
knew this about us and as a result, has a lot to say about how we
should interact with these difficult people. This week, we will
talk about some motives we have for avoiding these people, assess
our motives against what the Bible has to say, and learn from how
Jesus interacted with the kind of people many of us think of as
not worth our time and energy.
