In this episode of Beyond Just Christian Podcast, Brenna discusses 16 practical ways to love difficult people. Between recent events and obvious division among us, we find it easier to hate and harder to love both online and in person. Yet as God’s children, we are commanded to love, even with those who don’t love us, agree with us, or receive us in return. By the end of this episode, Brenna hopes that listeners will be able to able to remember that loving others is God’s second greatest commandment and follow through with it.  Self-Reflection Questions: When it comes to loving difficult people, which 3 of the 16 do I hope to improve on most? Name who in my life I struggle to love and why. Name who in my life I successfully love and why. What makes it difficult for me to love others? Name which obstacles or emotions limit or disable my ability or desire to do so. How does God demonstrate His love towards both the wicked and the righteous? How can I follow His example in my own life?    Scriptures Mentioned: Romans 12:9 Ephesians 6:12 Luke 6:32-36 2 Timothy 2:24 Romans 12:17-21 Colossians 3:13-16 1 Peter 4:8 Mark 12:30-31 Luke 6:31 Matthew 7:12 Ephesians 4:32 Matthew 7: 3-5 Romans 12: 3 Philippians 2 :3 Romans 3:10-12 Matthew 5:44 Romans 12:14 Galatians 5:13 Ephesians 4:15 Proverbs 15 3 Proverbs 15:23 Colossians 4:5 James 1:19 John 4:8   Buy my Bible/Supplies here: Bible: NLT Large-Print Thinline Reference Bible, Filament Enabled Edition--soft leather-look, floral/teal: 9781496444912 - Christianbook.com Highlighters: Aesthetic Highlighters, 8 Pcs, Chisel Tip, Muted Pastel Color, No Blee – Mr. Pen (mrpen.com) Bible Page Tabs: Floral Bible Tabs – The Daily Grace Co.   My Fave Websites to Find Studies, Books, Bibles, and Accessories: Christian Books, Bibles, Gifts & more. - Christianbook.com Hosanna Revival | Beautiful Bibles, Prayer Journals, Planners & More Equipping Disciples in the Word – The Daily Grace Co. Home - She Reads Truth -She Reads Truth   Listen to My Previous Podcast Episode Here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5mza1ps2CsSiPWi0Pxhn9e?si=62bba6069243400f  Where to Stream My Podcast: Spotify Anchor Apple Podcasts Breaker Castbox Google Podcasts Overcast Pocket Casts Radio Public Stitcher   Follow Me on LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/brennacovelens  Read My Published Article Here: Does God Really Know Me?
