Podcasts about love of christ

I. God's love for you in Christ is better than you can explain, vv17-19. II. God's power at work in you is more influential than you can imagine, v20. III. God's glory is on display in more places than you yet see, v21. 

Recently, I was blessed to travel to Madera, California, and preach at the Little Hope Primitive Baptist Church there. At the meeting, Elder Tyler Sposite preached this powerful sermon about particular redemption using the passage in Ephesians Chapter 5 regarding marriage. Join us as we learn about how Jesus faithfully loved His bride by dying...

I. The apostle reminds believers we are each personally and individually rooted and grounded in the love of Christ, v17. II. He prays that together, corporately, with all the saints, we'll know how wide and long and high and deep is this love of Christ, v18. III. And he prays we'll know and grasp this love, more and more, in v19.

Lift High the Cross, The Love of Christ Proclaim CRUCIFERsetting by Donald Busarow (1932-2011) - May Schwarz by First Community Church

Something happens in your life when you have a personal encounter with God's love.  Something that changes you. I'm sure you know that God loves you.  But do you only know that on a surface level? For some, it's a mere blanket statement of faith – nothing more than a thing you say because it's what everyone else says.  “Jesus loves me this I know – for the Bible tells me so.”  But God wants his love to reach you in a deep, personal way to the core of your identity.  More than just because the Bible tells you so, but because you've personally experienced his love.  What God has for you is this, “Jesus loves me this I know – for he met me in my soul.” Before you are anything else, you are loved by God.  Before you are pretty enough, smart enough, or good enough in any way, you are LOVED BY GOD.  Before the first thing you did right or after the last thing you got wrong, you are loved by God.  Your mere existence proves the fact of his love for you. But because you've had his love every day of your life whether you acknowledged it or not, maybe it's just become ordinary and unimpressive to you.  Sure, I'm loved by God – but what about these bills?  Yeah, I have God's love, but what about all the things I don't seem to have right now?  What about this mess?  What about this problem?  What about next month?  God's love seems irrelevant in my real life of real struggles. Really, what does God's love do for you?  Well, besides the fact that his love for you created you, gives you breath, saves your soul, and gives you a promised eternity in paradise … there's more.  More for your real life right here today. Satan can't take away the fact that God's love gives you life.  He can't cancel your promised destiny in heaven.  But what Satan can actively do is make your world so busy, so loud, and so fussy with absolute nonsense that you forfeit the power of God's love here and now.  And then here you are walking around so totally loved by a God who holds all the power in the world, and totally unaware of how his love can radically change your life TODAY. Yes, today.  God's love can change your experience in this day of life.  God's love can open your eyes to what you've never seen before.  God's love can change your thoughts and fill your entire existence with peace and joy.  God's love can supernaturally strengthen you to do things you've never ever been able to do before. That's what the enemy doesn't want you to know.  Satan wants to keep you stuck in your pit of darkness, your overwhelm of sadness, your little hell of stress and worry.  Why?  Because there you are ineffective to share the light of Jesus.  There you are just another soul trudging through the existence of life waiting for it all to be over. Wait – has the enemy of your soul tricked you into living like that?  If so, recognize at the core of his trickery is the web of lies from the pits of hell telling you that you're not REALLY loved by God.  His lies tell you that you're just one of millions and millions of people and life is just happening to you.  His lies tell you you're not really important to the creator of the Universe and there's no divine power over the details of your days.  His lies tell you your prayers have no power, you don't really hear from the Holy Spirit, and God Almighty is a little too busy to constantly be caring about you. Hmmmm – you've heard those lies, haven’t you?  Have you started to believe them? How do you overcome a lie?  WITH TRUTH!  Here's the truth from God's word. Ephesians 3:19, “May you experience the LOVE OF CHRIST, though it I too great to understand fully.  Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.” This is the scripture directly after yesterday's verse giving us the measurements of God's love through the cross.  Remember, we can look at the cross and know how WIDE God's love is, how LONG God's love is, how HIGH God's love is and how DEEP God's love is.  But it's not enough to just know about these measurements of love through the cross, you must EXPERIENCE THIS LOVE. No you will never fully understand it, but you can still experience it.  You will never have the right words to express his love, but you will feel it deep within your soul when you encounter it.  Jesus loves me this I know, for he met me in my soul. May you EXPERIENCE the love of Christ.  The Greek word translated into ‘experience' in this scripture is ginōskō.  This is a word for knowing firsthand after a personal encounter.  It's deeper than knowing because you were taught or told – it's a knowing because you've experienced it.  It's a shift from “Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so” – to – “Jesus loves me this I know, for he met me in my soul.”  It's a shift from “I know God loves me”, to “I have BEEN loved by God in a way that changed me.” How does God's love change you?  It completes you.  It fills that hole that absolutely nothing else can.  You can achieve everything you've ever wanted to achieve, and still you need God's love.  You can have purely wonderful relationships all around you, and still you need God's love.  You can have the perfect body to include the hair, the clothes, the eyes, the smile, absolutely all the things, and you will still need God's love.  You can have everyone's approval and applause, and you will still feel a void within – a void that is only filled by God's love.  You can have everything – and everything will never be enough, without God's love. And here's why – Completeness comes from experiencing the love of God through Jesus.  Again, look at our scripture, “May you EXPERIENCE the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully.  THEN you will be made COMPLETE with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”  The answer for your emptiness is the love of Jesus.  The solution for your longing is the love of Jesus.  Yes, that wide, long, high and deep love represented through the cross.  Have you experienced his love for you? Oh how I pray that you would be caught by God and completely swept away in his love.  I can't give you a formula for experiencing that.  I can't tell you, go to this exact place, pray this exact prayer, wait for 5 minutes, then his love will meet you and change everything.  It's simply not like that.  God's love meets us each in different ways at different times. I specifically remember the first time I experienced God's love on this level.  It was at one of my worst moments.  A moment where I was utterly disappointed and broken by the way my steps of faith had been rewarded by more hardship.  I had grown angry and bitter in the hardship, convinced God has messed up.  Sitting on my couch that day, I wrestled with my true feelings and tried to suppress it all.  My husband said, “Pamela, why don’t you just say it – you're mad at God.”  I had never been told I could have that feeling and still be loved.  I never knew God was bigger than my disappointment.  I seriously thought I would be struck by lightning if I told God how I really felt about the crap happening in our life.  But in that moment I just couldn't hold it back any longer.  I screamed out, “God, I can't believe this is how you repay faithfulness.  I can't believe this is your good plan for me.  I'm so angry right now.” And then I held my breath waiting for the withdrawal of his presence.  But instead of being struck by lightening, I was struck by his unfailing love.  I personally experienced the LOVE of CHRIST there in my weakest and most vulnerable moment.  He didn't turn away from me, instead I could feel his peace fill me.  In unspeakable ways, I was loved like I had never been loved before.  In my most unlovable moment, I was fully loved. That was a turning point for me.  I stepped out of being the victim and I harnessed new power.  Yes, power.  Power that comes from God when you experience the love of Christ.  Things didn't instantly change for us, but I can look back and see exactly how God was working for good in every detail.  Our struggles prepared us for the outpouring of blessings to come.  We came out stronger, more grounded, stripped down of all the excess, and our hands were open to receive what God had for us next. Honesty allows us to experience God's life changing love.  You don't have to pretend you're okay.  You don't have to play along like you're happy about the way things turned out.  You don't have to smile your way through the pain.  God can handle your honest emotions – but you have to surrender them to him.  When you do, you'll be met with a love you could never earn.  And that love changes everything. Paul writes that once you experience the true measure of God's love that is wide, long, high and deep, “THEN YOU WILL BE MADE COMPLETE WITH ALL THE FULLNESS OF LIFE AND POWER THAT COMES FROM GOD.” To have fullness means you lack nothing that is needed – you are perfectly filled.  Filled with LIFE and POWER. Have you ever met someone that is filled with LIFE and POWER?  They just glow different don't they?  There's something magnetic about them.  That's the power of Jesus' love within them.  If you want it, it's available to you too. You'll never understand this love, but you can live in it.  Faith is required here.  Surrender is your next step.  Go ahead and fall apart and let his loving arms catch you.  Experience his love. This is the flow: • Experience God's love • Be made whole in his love • Live filled with God's life and power The life God has for you and the power to fully live that life only comes AFTER experiencing his love.  You don't get that overflowing life without allowing a close relationship with God.  You don't get to stand on the bank, sis – You are being called into the waterfall of his love.  This is not a spectator sport.  Spectators see others be filled with life and power and walk away wondering why they can't have the same.  This is going to require you to get fully soaked in the flow of God's love! This is my genuine love-filled prayer for every single soul listening today – Oh how I want you to experience God's true love for you personally.  I have, and it changed everything.  It can do the same for you. May you EXPERIENCE the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully.  THEN you will be made COMPLETE with all the FULLNESS of LIFE and POWER that comes from God.

When we develop charity, everything in our lives gets better. We develop the capacity to treat others with more kindness and grace, and our self-respect increases as we do so. We live more in alignment with our values and create the ability to truly love. As our charity increases, so does our satisfaction, fulfilment, and joy in life. Charity creates in us the ability to honor the agency of others and develop relationships that are honest and intimate.

In Ephesians 3:14–21, we see Paul's prayer for believers to be strengthened by the Spirit, rooted in Christ's love, and filled with the fullness of God. This sermon explores what it means to pray bigger, pray better, and pray boldly as we rest in the immeasurable love of Christ and seek God's glory in every area of life. From our Sunday service at Grace Bible Church of Bend.

Message from Anand Mahadevan on May 17, 2026

The Council of Jerusalem reveals a lively discussion among the apostles, rooted in their love for the Lord Jesus they listen to one another. (Lectionary #288) May 7, 2026 - Cathedral Rectory - Superior, WI Fr. Andrew Ricci - www.studyprayserve.com  

The apostle Paul prays for believers to grow and mature as 1) the Spirit strengthens them, 2) Christ dwells in them, 3) They are rooted and grounded in love, 4) They comprehend the love of Christ, 5) They experience the love of Christ, 6) They are filled with the fullness of God.

This is a moment to reflect on the love of Jesus, as Elder David A. Bednar teaches that showing Christ-like love can help transform our hearts.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 1st of May, 2026, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in 2 Corinthians 5:14: ”For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died;…” The love of Christ compels us! The love of Christ is so great, it cannot be contained and that is why when somebody meets Jesus Christ for the first time they can't help themselves. I think they said about me, for the first six months, “You need to lock him up because he's like a bull in a china shop”, but the fire, the love, the passion! God is so great, and when you realise what He's done for you, your sins have been forgiven, you've been given a new start, you want to tell everybody.What was the last thing that Jesus said to the disciples before He ascended into heaven? Mark 16:15: “Go into all the world and preach the gospel …” You see, the love of God is too large for anyone to contain. We just can't keep it to ourselves, can we? His love has moved us to such extremes. His love has the first word and the last word in everything we do. I got saved on the 18th of February, 1979. I know you know that, but you know that man came and had a cup of tea with Gill and me after the service, and he said, ”Did you mean what you did today? I saw you went forward and committed your life to Christ.” I said, ”Of course I did.” He said, ”Well then, tell the first three people you meet tomorrow morning, Monday morning, what you did.” And I did, and I've never stopped since.Jeremiah was another one. He was tired of being mocked by the people. He said to the Lord, ”That's enough. No more. I'm not speaking anymore.” But if you look at Jeremiah 20:9. He said ”but there's a fire in my bones which constrains me, I can't help it. I have to tell people about the love of God.” He just couldn't keep it in! It is Christ's love that fuels our passion. It will lead us to where it led Him.Now remember, the love of Christ for this world led Him to the cross. He was despised, rejected. He was crucified because of His love for people. When you love people so intently, lots of people won't thank you for that. That doesn't matter. Don't judge them, just continue to love them, and I want to tell you something now. Just the love of Christ in your heart, the look of passion in your face, will bring people to Jesus quicker than any sermon from a pulpit.God bless you as you share the love of Christ abroad today. Goodbye.

The Practical Love of Christ by NoLimits Church - Sunday Messages

Remember God loves you so much he sent his Son Jesus Christ to take the punishment for your sins. You are of great value. Jesus loves you and He is just a prayer away! 

Main Point: 2 Corinthians 5:11-17 reveals four gospel-shaping realities that compel us by the love of Christ to no longer live for ourselves but for Him. 

When C.S. Lewis thought about hell, he said, “There is no doctrine which I would more willingly remove from Christianity than this, if it lay in my power.” Many people are uncomfortable with the idea that a loving God would sentence people to an eternity of suffering, but Jesus spoke about hell twice as much as everyone else in the Bible combined. He describes hell as a place we choose to go, but the good news is that God chooses to deliver us from hell out of his limitless love.

By Adam Young

Jesus teaches his followers that in "the last days" there will be a battle for Truth. This week at Maplewood, join us as we explore what it means to be anchored to Christ "in spirit and in truth."

Sermon Title: Making the Love of Christ Your Great Quest Speaker: Rev. Dr. Ebenezer Okronipa Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 13 & 14, 2 Thessalonians 3:5, Ephesians 5:1-2 I. The Mandate: Love as the Primary Pursuit In the Christian walk, there is a distinct hierarchy of spiritual priorities. While the church often emphasizes power and gifts, Scripture redirects our focus toward love as the "more excellent way." The Command to Pursue: 1 Corinthians 14:1 instructs us to "Pursue love." The Greek word used here is dioko, which means to eagerly chase or hunt, much like a predator pursues its prey. The Difference Between Desire and Quest: You are told to desire spiritual gifts but to make love your quest. You can desire something without chasing it, but a quest requires an intentional, life-altering pursuit. The Goal: Love must be your "bullseye"—the very center of your spiritual aim. II. The Futility of Gifts Without Love 1 Corinthians 13 highlights that the highest levels of spiritual operation are rendered useless if they are not fueled by love. 1. Spiritual Utterances If you speak in the tongues of men or even angels but lack love, you are merely a "sounding brass" or a "clanging cymbal." Without love, powerful prayer and tongues become an "empty sound" that is frustrating and irritating rather than transformative. 2. Revelation and Knowledge One can understand all mysteries and possess all knowledge, yet if love is absent, the person is "nothing." 3. Miracle-Working Faith Even faith that is powerful enough to remove mountains is profitless without the component of love. 4. Extreme Sacrifice Giving all your goods to the poor or even giving your body to be burned (martyrdom) profits you nothing if the motivation is not love. Correction on Human Love: Often, we mistake "kindness" or "human affinity" for God's love. True Agape goes beyond loving those in our circle; it is a supernatural disposition. III. The Superiority of Love The Bible establishes that love is the greatest of the abiding virtues. The Abiding Three: Faith, hope, and love remain, but love is the greatest. The More Excellent Way: 1 Corinthians 12:31 transitions into the love chapter by promising to show us a way that is superior to all spiritual offices and gifts. IV. Defining the Quest: Walking in the Love of God To pursue love is to pursue the very nature of God. Directed Hearts: 2 Thessalonians 3:5 is a prayer that the Lord "direct your hearts into the love of God." This implies that our hearts need divine navigation to stay aligned with His love. Imitating the Father: Ephesians 5:1-2 calls us to be "imitators of God" as dear children. The Standard of Christ: We are commanded to "walk in love, as Christ also has loved us." This is a sacrificial love—one that gives itself up as an offering. V. Practical Application: An Excellent Church An "excellent" church is not defined by its social gatherings or the fame of its leaders, but by its operation in love and the Spirit. Love Removes Barriers: When a church walks in the love of God, tribalism, social status, and personal offenses disappear. Gifts Flourishing in Love: Spiritual gifts (prophecy, healing, miracles) should be evident in the church, but they must be exercised through the "more excellent way" of love to be effective. A Burden for the People: The greatest drain on a leader is not the exercise of power, but the emotional labor of counseling those who are not walking in love and are thus easily frustrated or offended. Conclusion and Call to Action Make the love of God your Great Quest. Do not be satisfied with merely being "spiritual" or "gifted." Ask the Holy Spirit to direct your heart into a love that is sacrificial, consistent, and modeled after Jesus Christ. Prayer Point: "Lord, direct my heart into Your love. Let my life be an imitation of Christ's love in every word and action."

What kind of hope and confidence does Easter provide? Pastor Nate explains from Romans 8:31-39 that our confidence rests completely in Jesus Christ. He is the one who delivers us from opposition, abomination, condemnation, and separation. All of God's promises are guaranteed because of the love shown in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.

Preaching from Galatians 2:20, what is the ongoing significance of Easter? How does the living and lively love of Christ breathe life into our bones?

Strengthened to Know the Love of Christ by Franklin City Church

What happens when the gospel truly takes hold of a person's life? In 2 Corinthians 5:11–21, the apostle Paul shows us that the gospel doesn't simply improve us—it makes us new.Because of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, our deepest motivations are transformed, our identity is completely renewed, and our purpose in the world is redefined. The love of Christ begins to control our lives, freeing us from living for ourselves and calling us to live for the One who died and was raised for us.Through Christ, we are made into a new creation. The old has passed away, and the new has come. As people who have been reconciled to God, we are now entrusted with the message of reconciliation and sent into the world as ambassadors for Christ.This message explores how the gospel reshapes our motivations, gives us a new identity in Christ, and calls us into a mission to proclaim God's reconciling grace to the world.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Are you feeling depleted, tired, or like you're just going through the motions? It's easy to treat church like a box to check off, but God desires a rich and satisfying life for you that goes far beyond a Sunday routine.In this message, Pastor Clay NeSmith dives into Ephesians 3:16-20 to explore the Apostle Paul's powerful prayer for the church. We look at how the early church—a diverse group of Jews and Gentiles—was called to unify and display God's wisdom to the "unseen rulers and authorities."Join us as we learn how to:Renew our minds and stand firm against the enemy's attempts to steal our purpose.Find true satisfaction in the love of Christ rather than worldly experiences.Unify as a church family to shine the light of Jesus in our communities.If you are ready to move past your circumstances and experience the power of the Holy Spirit, this message is for you.

Most people assume there are many ways to reach God. Just live a good life, believe something spiritual, and hope it works out. But Jesus makes a bold claim: He alone is the way to the Father. We'll look at why Jesus is uniquely qualified to say that and how His love changes everything.

A powerful message on how the love of Christ compels and transforms a life. Andreas Kyriacou reflects on how divine love overrides comfort, ambition, and fear, igniting passion for God, prayer, and the mission of the gospel.

In this message, Pastor Caleb discusses how the love of Christ has expectations for everyone.  Although Jesus loves everyone, He expects those He loves to submit to His Word and be His followers.  May Christians understand the love of Christ and love as Christ loves.  Send a textSupport the showFor more information for our church visit AGCSparta.org.

In this message from Ephesians 3:14-21, Pastor Jim walks through Paul's breathtaking prayer that drives him to his knees. After unfolding the cosmic scope of God's plan to unite all things in Christ and form one new people, Jim shows that the only way forward is through the Spirit's power at work in our inner being. This passage centers on God's love, our ongoing grasp of that love, and the glorious goal of being filled with the fullness of God. Jim unpacks what it means for Christ to dwell in our hearts, not as a fleeting feeling but as the deep center of our identity, shaping our affections, obedience, and communal life together. The love of Christ is wider, longer, higher, and deeper than we can comprehend, yet we are invited to press on and seize it daily. As we are strengthened by the Spirit and rooted in love, we become a living display of God's glory in the church, a foretaste of the day when all things are united in Jesus.

This message invites us into a profound exploration of God's irresistible love—a love that never changes despite our wandering. Drawing from the parable of the prodigal son, we discover a revolutionary truth: when we sin and fall away, God's disposition toward us doesn't shift from love to anger. Rather, it's our own perception that changes. We create an alternate reality where we imagine God as an angry judge waiting to condemn us, when in reality He's the loving Father running toward us with open arms. The sermon challenges us to examine 1 Corinthians 13's definition of love not as mere poetry, but as a mirror for our own lives. By inserting our names into these verses—'Does [my name] suffer long? Is [my name] kind?'—we begin the transformative work of becoming love incarnate. The call is clear: we must move beyond intellectual understanding to experiential knowledge of God's love. When we truly encounter the Holy Spirit's tangible presence, no one can reason us out of our faith because we've tasted something real. This message reminds us that tenderness, meekness, and patience aren't weaknesses but require tremendous strength and self-mastery. As we cultivate these virtues, we become drink offerings poured out for others, just as Paul described his own life—finally living out the love we profess.

Message from The Summit Church, Raleigh, NC – December 14, 2025

What drives your life? Whether money, or our children, or the approval of others, we all have something that drives us, even controls us. In this week's message from 2 Corinthians 5, Pastor Bryan helps us see how allowing the love of Christ to control us changes everything. Living out the identity that Jesus gives us as believers means a new outlook on everything—ourselves, others, and even life and death itself.
