What's love got to do with it? We are continuing the love portion of our LIB series. The Boulevard... Tune in to the Foolishness and Shenanigans

Pastor Jeff Edwards introduced our new sermon series and new theme, "God is Love in 2025." What should we work on in 2025?  Well, what is the most important thing in the universe, besides God? Let's look at the “book of love”, 1 John, for the answer!  We will walk through the book of 1 John. Jeff preachedfrom 1 John 4:7-12.

In Mark 12, Jesus was asked which of the ten commandments was most important. His reply surprised them: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these.” What is the first key phrase in this passage? The action verb Jesus began with? LOVE - Love the Lord … your God. We have to start with the very personal question: How much do I love God? How do we love God with all our hearts, souls, and minds with all of our strength? Jesus showed us a road map in this passage. There are four quadrants mapped out of our being that Jesus mentioned here: Heart, Soul, Mind, and strength. We start with getting present with God - just me and Him - getting still. It is the premise of what we do here every day. We do this by breathing and getting still. Notice the passage starts with internal, intimate things - not intellectual things like the mind. It begins with our heart and soul. The order to this is critical We start by paying attention to our heart - what is going on inside. Approaching God as a child with all our feelings, failures and desires and bringing it to Him. Then we focus on our Soul by getting still and allowing His presence to speak to our inner being - without words. Only then do we engage our mind by taking in what God is saying. Lastly, our strength, what we do with encountering God. These are the steps Jesus laid out to love him wholly. Listen again to Jesus words. ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these.” Start, as Jesus said, with our heart -our feelings, then move to our soul - experiencing God in stillness caring for the deepest part of us, then move to feeding our minds by taking in what he is saying and then, and only then should we move forward in strength Knowing the source. What part of the four quadrants do you struggle to let be known by God? Heart, soul, mind, strength? These are all connected. Your heart matters—your soul matters. Your mind matters. What you do matters. But the order matters most. Can you allow God to love you today? Can you let him know more of you this next year? As you ruminate on those feelings, let's take some slow deep breaths once again. Let's pray together: “Heavenly Father, thank You for taking all of the laws and simply telling us to love You with all we have, through a relationship with Jesus. Today, I seek Your balance. I give you my heart. My mind. My thoughts. My attitude. My spirit. My being. All that I have for all that You are. As above, so below.”

Welcome, Warriors, to another episode where we dive deep into the fruits of the Spirit, focusing today on love—how to actively embody this most crucial attribute in our daily lives. Today, we're drawing wisdom from Galatians 5:13.Our springboard for today's discussion is: Galatians 5:13 - "For you were called to freedom, brothers. Only do not use your freedom as an opportunity for the flesh, but through love serve one another."This verse compels us to consider how our freedom in Christ is not merely for self-satisfaction but is meant to fuel our service to others through love. It reminds us that true freedom is exercised best through acts of selfless love.Let's Start With:* Identify Opportunities to Serve: Look around in your community, workplace, or family. Where is there a need that you can meet? Maybe someone is struggling and could use help with a practical task or just needs a listening ear.* Commit to Daily Acts of Kindness: Choose to perform at least one deliberate act of kindness each day. Whether it's paying for someone's coffee or sending an encouraging text, these small actions can have a big impact.* Encourage Others to Love: Love is contagious. By sharing how you've been able to love others, encourage your friends and family to do the same. Create a ripple effect of love in your circle of influence.Conclusion: Making love visible isn't just about grand gestures; it's about consistent, daily actions that speak loudly of the love God has shown us.Question of the Day: What is one way you can show love to someone in your life today?Growth Challenge: This month, take on the challenge of documenting your acts of love. Keep a journal of your actions and reflect on how these acts have affected not only those around you but also your own spiritual growth.Let's Pray: Lord, thank You for the freedom You have given us through Your love. Help us to use this freedom not for ourselves but to serve others in love. Guide us in practical ways to demonstrate Your love every day. Amen.Remember, Warriors, love is an action. Let's put our faith into practice and make love visible in every aspect of our lives. Let's get to work!My Reasons To Believe is a reader-supported publication.

Stoners, we LOVE LOVE! And today your hosts are joined by relationship expert Mark Groves, author of Liberated Love, to talk all things, well, LOVE! He shares his inspiring story of him and his wife, and how the book came to be. He shares how breakups are the most potent vehicle for change, and are an opportunity that shouldn't be wasted; something Tizzle couldn't agree with more. While MT has to kick off the episode on her own, the heavy lifting for this week was done by the Stoners. The questions you sent in have everyone debating the foundation of friends with benefits and feeling trapped in a relationship. Mark offers insight on so much, including ignoring outside opinions (easier said than done, we know), working on yourself within a relationship, and going back to a first love. We hope you get as much from this episode as we did Stoners, and thanks so much for all your questions!  To learn more from Mark, check out his website markgroves.com   Thanks to our awesome sponsors for supporting this episode:  Schedule35: Get 15% Off with code STONED at Schedule35.co  Integra: Use code SWS at checkout for 15% off your next online purchase at www.integraboost.com    Don't forget to rate, review, and follow the show!
