    Jun 8 2026

  • Loving One Another Gods Way
    Jun 4 2026
    This episode explores the critical distinguishing characteristic of followers of Christ—the love of God radiating from within them to a world lost in darkness. Drawing from 1 John 3:11-24, the message emphasizes that genuine Christian love is not merely an emotion but action born from our eternal identity as children of God. The episode contrasts the destructive hatred exemplified by Cain with the sacrificial love demonstrated by Christ, challenging believers to move beyond religious rhetoric to visible acts of love and sacrifice. It emphasizes that God's love is unconditional, given while we were still lost in darkness, and that this same love should characterize our relationships with others. The message concludes by establishing three foundations for loving God's way: believing in Christ, obeying and doing what pleases Him, and being filled with the Holy Spirit who assures us of our right fellowship with God.
