Episode 104 - "Set Free the Love Dam"

Let Love Motivate You to Sacrifice"For God so loved the world, he gave ..." This week, we find some surprises in the verses surrounding the world's most beloved verse — John 3:16 — and also look at another John 3:16 (First John 3:16, that is!). We dive into some Crosswords — Heavy Words spoken at the cross — finding potent irony and some guidance for life and death. We close with some challenges to help us "Cross Train" in sacrificial love. We hope the conversation leads you back to Calvary, as it did for us. May we all learn to love like He does!The Big Idea: We don’t have inexhaustible resources, but we trust God to provide as we joyfully imitate Christ’s sacrificial service.Weekly Challenges: Find this week’s Through the Week challenges here.Show NotesCross Training - "As You Wish" (DAILY DOWNLOAD)Cross Training - Through the Week Challenges - Week 15Like the Teacher: John 3:1-21 (VERSE)CrossWords - Near the Cross (PDF)CrossWords - From the Cross (PDF)The Servant by Ryan Joy (SERMON)The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg (BOOK)The Bible Geeks Facebook Group (FACEBOOK)Support the Show
