Strength in Compassion

from Church on the Move: Roswell Hosted by Church on the Move - Roswell, NM

Pastor Troy Smothermon explores what Jesus actually meant when He taught us to love our enemies and respond with grace. Through a pastor’s personal story and the words of Luke 6:29–30, we unpack the difference between true Christ-like love and the misconceptions that often surround it. The message makes clear what Jesus is not saying: • He’s not calling us to be doormats or to enable abuse. • He’s not forbidding self-defense or wisdom in dangerous situations. • He’s not asking us to fund someone’s dysfunction or irresponsibility. Instead, we learn the power of small acts of kindness, the importance of serving others with joy, and how to walk in discernment, balance, and spiritual maturity. Through teachings from the Beatitudes and other supporting scriptures, we discover how to love fully and wisely.
