Red Letter Blueprint: Jesus’ 52 Rules for Joy
Jesus promised that if we obey his commands, our joy would be uncontainable (John 15:10-11). In fact, he frequently emphasized the importance of following his commands. But what are they? I read all of Jesus’ words in the Bible (the words in red letters) and collected 52 commands. 13 are related to our relationship with God, 13 about our relationships with people, 13 are about our values, and 13 about our actions. Over the next year, I’ll explore a different command each week.

Jesus said, “follow me” a lot. But how do we follow someone we can’t see? I can follow someone on social media.

Here’s one thing Jesus doesn’t mean: try harder.
