Motivated By Love

We’re kicking off a new series called Sharing the Good News by getting to the heart of what fuels it all—love. In this first teaching, we explore how God doesn’t look at a broken world with frustration or distance, but with deep compassion and pursuing love. Through John 3, we see that God’s love moves toward people far from Him. In Matthew 9, we see that love expressed through Jesus’ compassion for the hurting and lost. And in 2 Corinthians 5, we’re reminded that this same love now compels us. Sharing the good news isn’t about pressure, having all the right answers, or forcing conversations. It’s about becoming people who are so shaped by the love of Jesus that it naturally flows out of us into the lives of others. If sharing your faith has ever felt awkward, confusing, or even off-putting based on what you’ve seen—this conversation reframes it. Sharing the good news isn’t an obligation—it’s an act of love. Because when we truly experience the love of God, we can’t help but want others to experience it too. Who in your life needs to experience life in Jesus? And what would it look like to love them this week?
