 | Dear  , 
 "One of the teachers of the law came and heard them debating. Noticing that Jesus had given them a good answer, he asked him, 'Of all the commandments, which is the most important?'     'The most important one,' answered Jesus, 'is this: 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." Mark 12:28-31   When you read this scripture do you find yourself pondering "Who is my neighbor?". Is it really possible to love our neighbor as our self? Here are some steps to becoming a Good Neighbor:   1.Loving our neighbor means putting our needs aside. Loving our neighbor means giving sacrificially when our neighbor has a need. We set aside our own needs and concentrate on providing for the neighbor. We have to be willing to put aside convenience and be there in the time of need.  Showing love to our neighbor is the best example of Godliness there is. When Jesus came to walk with us here on earth, He came as a servant to all mankind. We, in turn, are to be servants to others, demonstrating a Godly love. Whether or not the person to whom you are showing love accepts it or not, it is still our responsibility and duty as Godly people.   2. Who is our neighbor in God's eyes? When Jesus was asked this question, He told the story of the Good Samaritan. There is a a story of a Sunday School teacher who asked a group of Third Graders what they would do if they saw a person on the road beaten and bloodied. After some thought, a little girl raised her hand and responded, "I would probably throw-up!" And the Good Samaritan might have felt that way too, but he helped the man anyway. A neighbor is anyone close by to where you are. Regardless of how we feel, God asks us to demonstrate His love to them.   3. Love is the greatest witness of Christ. Matthew 5:16, "In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." 1 Peter 2:15, "For it is God's will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant talk of foolish people." 1 John 3:18, "Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."  Be the neighbor God has called you to be to those around you. Blessings,

 | The Noticer
 |  | A story of common wisdom from the bestselling author of The Traveler's  Gift.|  |  | In Store or On Line | 
 
 Orange Beach, Alabama is a simple town filled with simple people. But like all humans on the planet, the good folks of Orange Beach have their  share of problems - marriages teetering on the brink of divorce, young adults  giving up on life, business people on the verge of bankruptcy, as well as the  many other obstacles that life seems to dish out to the  masses.
 
 Fortunately, when things look the darkest - a mysterious man  named Jones has a miraculous way of showing up.  An elderly man with white hair,  of indiscriminate age and race, wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and leather  flip flops carrying a battered old suitcase, Jones is a unique soul. Communicating what he calls "a little perspective," Jones explains that he has  been given a gift of noticing things that others miss.  "Your time on this earth  is a gift to be used wisely," he says.  "Don't squander your words or your  thoughts. Consider even the simplest action you take, for your lives matter  beyond measure?and they matter forever."
 
 Jones speaks to that part in  everyone that is yearning to understand why things happen and what we can do  about it.
 
 Like The Traveler's Gift, The Noticer is a unique narrative is  a blend of fiction, allegory, and inspiration.  Gifted storyteller Andy Andrews  helps us see how becoming a "noticer" just might change a person's life  forever.

 |  |  | The Christian life, says Richard Dahlstrom, should be guided by the intentional  goal of blessing the lives of the friends, loved ones, and strangers in our  midst.|  |  | In Store or On Line | 
 
 We are called to impact a culture that, for all the rhetoric about hope,  is overwhelmingly preoccupied with personal peace, prosperity, protection, and  survival. Christians should be artists who paint with the colors of hope in a  broken world, embodying Christ's redemptive presence in our personal lives, our  work, and our relationships.
 
 This inspiring and practical book offers tools for  living out this vision in daily life, with special attention given to the  challenges we face in staying focused on the mission of imparting hope to others  even while dealing with our own personal issues. Anyone who wishes they could  have an impact on the world will cherish this unique book.

 | Some Parting Fun.... |  | 
My quiet Saturday morning ended abruptly when my 12-year-old son, Billy, and one of his friends burst through the door.   "Hey Dad, announced Billy, "have you met the new neighbors?"   "No."   "Come on Dad, you have to meet them."   "Some other time; I'm busy."   "Dad, you have to meet them now."   From the urgency in Billy's voice, I assumed the neighbors were waiting outside. I set aside my project and went to the front of the house. No one was there.   "Where are they?" I asked.  "Well, Dad," he explained, "we haven't met them yet either, but our baseball is in their living room!" |
