Love

As we dive into the spiritual fruit God wants to produce in us, we begin with the focus of it all: love. In this sermon, Jordan reminds us that we are all rooted in God's love because we are created in the image of the God who is love. The love we receive from God and are called to extend to ourselves and others is more than "like" and pleasantness; it is a self-sacrificing love that calls us to open ourselves before God and others with the same love Jesus demonstrated toward us.

This week's exercise, to help us cultivate roots of love, is to practice presence with God and others.
