Christianity is not passive — it's a radical, world-changing way of life that responds to evil with good and transforms oppressive systems through love.He reminds us that we don't go to church; we are the church — a community of people who live for Jesus each day as living sacrifices, drawing others to Him through gentleness, courage, and grace.

Love isn't just a feeling — it's action, commitment, and the way of Jesus. This message will challenge and inspire you to live out the Gospel in practical, everyday ways. You'll discover how God's love is not just a concept, but a transformative force that shapes your relationships, your service, and your faith. If you want to grow in devotion, serve with purpose, and experience the freedom and joy of living fully in God's family, this message is for you.

Into the Heart of the Gospel: Love that Never Quits // Lynne Benik | 10.06.24
Matt Murphy explores the transformative power of self-giving love within the Kingdom of God, using Paul's relationship with the Thessalonians as a model. Reflecting on his own experience of isolating and shallow connections, Matt acknowledges the human tendency to seek "safety" in separation. However, Paul's example in 1 Thessalonians reveals a different way—a life shared deeply with others, marked by gentleness, devotion, faithful presence, and care, much like a family. This sermon emphasizes that true, flourishing relationships require us to look to Christ as the infinite source of love, enabling us to love others without expectation or transaction. It calls the church to embrace this self-giving love, anchored in Christ, as the foundation for genuine, lasting community.

Question of Conscience: Is it helpful – physically, spiritually, and mentally? “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything.” (1 Cor 6:12b). Question of Conscience: Does it bring me under its power? “Therefore, if food makes my brother stumble, I will never eat meat, lest I make my brother stumble.” (1 Cor. 8:13). Question of Love: Does it hurt others? “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.” (1 Cor.10:31). Question of Glory: Does it glorify God?
