COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Read Matthew 3:16-17.  Jesus gets baptized by John the Baptist and God the Father publicly blesses his son.  We talked about the words that come out of our mouth.  What does it look like to publicly bless someone we love?  Our words are powerful.  Our inclination is to complain.  Complaining is something we have to constantly watch.  Challenge was to encourage those around us with our words.  Build them up, and not complain!
