    Message Action Plan

    The values of the creator will be dominant in their creation.

    ACTION PLAN: Read Genesis chapters 1 and 2 this week. What do you see about the importance of relationships? What do you see about God's love of diversity?

    Jesus had surprising friendships.

    1. Sit at/Set surprising tables.

    2. Ask dumb questions.

    ACTION PLAN:In your conversations with friends this week, try to think about at least one or two "dumb" questions you can ask. Often, these questions actually lead to deeper understanding between you and your friend.

    3. Bring your authentic self.

    Diving Deeper: Listen to Episode 3 - Enrich of the Rediscovering the Lost Art of Friendship podcast featuring a conversation with Transformation Church Lead Pastor Derwin Gray
