LOVE LIES: How to RUIN your relationship before it STARTS // Relationships (part 1) // Pastor Drew

from Collective Church Omaha · host Collective Church

❤️❤️ "Love is a verb. Love is an action. Love looks like serving, love looks like patience, love looks like kindness... the feeling is the fruit that follows." In this sermon, "LOVE LIES: How to RUIN your relationship before it STARTS," Pastor Drew kicks off a new series on relationships by exposing six common "love lies" that can undermine a foundation before it’s even built. By contrasting modern dating culture with biblical principles, he challenges viewers to move away from looking for "the one" and instead focus on becoming the right person through a relationship with Jesus. The message emphasizes that true fulfillment isn't found in a partner, but in Christ, and that lasting love is built on a covenant commitment rather than a temporary agreement. ------------------------------------ [00:00] Community Groups & Announcements [10:32] Sermon Intro: The Need for a Fresh Start [15:22] Series Launch: Relationships (Part 1) [24:23] Message: Love Lies [25:32] Lie #1: They Should Fulfill You [29:25] Lie #2: Keep Your Faith to Yourself [31:44] Lie #3: Love is Butterflies [34:24] Lie #4: Establish an Agreement, Not a Commitment [38:09] Lie #5: Looking for "The One" [40:30] Lie #6: Try it Before You Buy It [45:39] The Big Idea: There IS ALWAYS GRACE [48:42] Closing Prayer & Invitation for a Fresh Start ------------------------------------ 📖 Scripture References Matthew 18 : 3 — https://bible.com/bible/111/MAT.18.3.NIV Proverbs 12 : 1 — https://bible.com/bible/111/PRO.12.1.NIV Ecclesiastes 2 : 10-11 — https://bible.com/bible/111/ECC.2.10-11.NIV 2 Corinthians 6 : 14 — https://bible.com/bible/111/2CO.6.14.NIV 2 Corinthians 7 — https://bible.com/bible/111/2CO.7.NIV 1 Corinthians 13 — https://bible.com/bible/111/1CO.13.NIV Malachi 2 : 14 — https://bible.com/bible/111/MAL.2.14.NIV Hebrews 13 : 4 — https://bible.com/bible/111/HEB.13.4.NIV ------------------------------------ For any information, how to connect, and/or prayer requests: https://form.church/youcollectiveomaha We'd love to hear from you!
