Resurrection Life Church
Jesus called His disciples to "come and follow me". That is the same call He is issuing to us today. "Come follow me, be like me, and love like me." Love is more than just nice actions and sappy words but a condition of the heart. This week Pastor Allen sums up this series with points on how we can submit ourselves to the one that started it all and be like and love like Him.
