May 5 – The Lens for Everything

In today’s episode, Pastor Jenny Dirmann shares a devotion from Matthew 22, focusing on Jesus’ response to the question about the greatest commandment. Rather than simply giving a rule to follow, Jesus provides a lens through which all of Scripture—and life itself—can be understood: love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, and love your neighbor as yourself. This message reminds listeners that following Jesus is not about picking and choosing which commands to obey, but about allowing love to shape every thought, action, and decision. As we grow in loving God fully and loving others well, we begin to see transformation in how we live, think, and walk out our faith each day.Today’s Reading:May 5 – 1 Kings 8; 2 Chronicles 5–7; Matthew 22
