The Art of Neighboring

The Evangelism and Discipleship Committee and the Center for Leadership Excellence present a workshop with Dave Runyon…

*Doors open at 9:30 am

About the Day

What if Jesus meant that we should love our actual neighbors? This is a question posed in the book The Art of Neighboring and it’s a question that every Christian needs to wrestle with. Neighborhoods are much more than a collection of houses, or apartments, brick and mortar… they are a collection of people and potential life-giving relationships. We all have a need for genuine community, and nothing beats the frequency, availability, and spontaneity of connecting with others who live near us. Can you imagine the impact of the Christians in each neighborhood around our city and county taking up the challenge to shine the light of Christ in their neighborhood? We will be tackling this very challenge as we offer practical teaching on the art of neighboring.

We will be giving the first 50 registrants for this workshop a copy of Dave’s book, The Art of Neighboring: Building Genuine Relationships Right Outside Your Door. Books will be available to pick up at the event.
