This is our simple, all-around form of communication. It's a great "Communication Card" to let us know of address changes or sign-up for activities/serving opportunities, it's an alternative method of asking for prayer as only staff will get it and can respond, or you can simply let us know you're here.

A MEASURE OF LOVE
Jesus Said – Part 3
7/30/2023
The Relational Side of Obedience
Jesus does not measure love by how we feel, He measures it by how we obey.
Jesus is saying: Obedience opens the door to deep relationship.
The Practical Side Of Obedience

Jesus is saying: This is not about saying you love me because of what I do, it is about showing you love me by what you do.

The problem with obedience is that it requires you to do something.

When you really believe that someone has your best interest in mind you are open to their influence.
Jesus is saying: If you just do what I say you are really smart.
Jesus is saying: The best way to prepare for your future is to organize your life around my teachings now.
Jesus is saying: If you decide to do your life contrary to my teachings you are making a mistake.

This Teaching Affects Us In One Of Three Ways:
It is a Comfort,
a Warning
or an Explanation

Obedience starts with your heart and ends with your hands.
