Do Not Judge

Matthew 5:1-5

Hillcrest should strive to be a community that allows and desires authenticity. We should be authentic with each other, and we should allow people (newcomers and regulars alike) to be authentic with us. We all have faults, and we all want to grow closer to God. We do well now, but we can always do better.

Questions for further thought:
1. How can we be more authentic with each other?
2. What do you need to do to allow others to be more authentic with you?

​Challenge: Hillcrest offers multiple ways to grow with each other. Two ways that have helped me are serving in ministry and small groups. Consider one or both of these options as a way to grow in authenticity.
