No Greater Love | Abiding in Jesus’s Love

In our last series we spent time thinking about abiding, specifically in prayer. But as Jesus’ teaching moves forward in John 15, we see abiding includes more than prayer. It involves imitation and obedience, and Jesus specifically says it is to look like loving in the way he does. When we read the whole passage—or maybe better said, let it read us—we begin to ask ourselves some important and maybe difficult questions: What does it look like to love like Jesus? What does he mean by love? Why does loving by giving ourselves away actually help us become our truest selves? How does loving like Jesus offer us a greater joy than we could ever take for ourselves? And are we living with integrity according to the love of God’s grace shown to us? The answers to these questions are what we want to explore in this series. Join us!
