The BEST Love // More Than Me Series (part 2) // Pastor Drew
from Collective Church Omaha · host Collective Church
❤️❤️ "Love is not about giving so that it'll be reciprocated. Love is not a contract of mutual backscratching. Love looks like self-sacrifice." This message focuses on the radical nature of Christian love as demonstrated by Jesus. The core message is that true love is defined by self-sacrifice and action, not emotion. Pastor Drew challenges the common cultural view of love as a mutual agreement, stating that love, modeled by Christ, means laying down one's life for others. Uncomfortable Generosity: The call to stretch beyond one's comfort zone in every aspect of life, from relationships to chores, and especially in giving. The World's Greatest Need: Emphasizing that the world's greatest need is Jesus, and the only way people will get the gospel is through the self-sacrificial actions of the Church. Practical Application: The sermon connects the concept of sacrificial love to the church's $35,000 Faith Offering goal, highlighting the impact of supporting global missions, particularly Project Rescue, which combats human trafficking. The message concludes by urging listeners to partner with God's generosity, using the promise that God will generously provide for those who give cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:6-8). ----------------------------------------------------------------- [00:00:00] Sermon Introduction: The Best Love (The Bad Date Story) [00:05:12] The Danger of Selfish Faith [00:09:35] Mission & Faith Offering Update [00:16:59] Defining Real Love by Sacrifice (1 John 3:16) [00:24:46] Challenge to Live Uncomfortably Generous [00:34:09] Giving Cheerfully (2 Corinthians 9:6-8) [00:36:39] Project Rescue Video: Combating Human Trafficking [00:42:59] The Unmatched Love of Jesus & Final Altar Call ------------------------------------------------------------- For any information, how to connect, and/or prayer requests: https://collectivechurchomaha.churchcenter.com/people/forms/968572 We'd love to hear from you!
