Day 6: The Welcome of Christ

A Place to Belong · With One Another · May 2, 2026

Scripture
Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God. — Romans 15:7 (NIV)
Romans 15:7

Paul says accept one another just as Christ accepted you. How did Christ accept you? While you were still a sinner. While you were messy. While you had nothing to offer. He did not wait for you to clean up. He welcomed you as you were and loved you into change. That is how we are supposed to welcome each other. Not after people get it together, but right where they are.

Prayer

Jesus, help me accept others the way You accepted me. Remove my judgment and give me Your heart of welcome.
