Identifying Jesus’ Disciples, Doing Good in our Neighborhoods + a John 13:35 Printable Coloring Page

Last week on the blog, I shared about a local organization I volunteered with called Bridge of Hope that addresses homelessness. I was so encouraged to think about the good that people are doing in the name of Jesus.

I know that many of you are involved in all sorts of creative and helpful things in your own neighborhoods, so I’m starting a new reader spotlight series!

Here’s what I’d love from you. If you’re involved in a project that does good in your neighborhood, please use the Google form linked below and submit a “doing good in the neighborhood” project to be featured on my blog and newsletter. 

The work doesn’t have to be big or fancy. It doesn’t have to fit in a traditional ministry/evangelism category (but it could). You don’t have to be the ministry founder or organizer–just involved at some level. I want to highlight the good and creative things people are doing in the name of Jesus to better their communities so we can all be encouraged! Submit a project using the button below or HERE.

To kick off this new blog series, I created a FREE coloring page of John 13:35 for you to print and color. You can download it HERE or by clicking on the image below:

This is a pair of healing stories, but the second one takes an unexpected turn and introduces Jesus' first conflict with religious authorities. I talk about the conflict with the Pharisees and this incredible 16th century Netherlandish painting.
