Have you ever stopped to consider the strength of love against the backdrop of the early church? Imagine a world rich in fellowship, joy, unity, and selfless giving - a world where the actions of Jesus illustrate the transformative power of love. This is the journey we embark on in this episode, revisiting the roots of the church, where believers shared everything and practiced love in a way that met the needs of every individual.
Ever wondered how Jesus' radical teachings can influence our interactions in the modern world? As we explore Jesus' approach to rule and government, we find a new perspective on unity and service. We discover the beauty in reaching out, and how strength is intended for service, not status, as taught in the book of Romans. Let's challenge our status quo, bearing in mind that Jesus set an example by turning an entire system of rule and government upside down. Together, we'll learn to ask the hard questions about the systems we live in, and how to strive for a better way.
In our final discussion, we delve into the transformative practice of radical love and acceptance. What does it mean to truly accept others the way Jesus did? How can we overcome the barriers to radical acceptance? By welcoming all to the feast, regardless of background or faith, we are invited to practice radical self-emptying love. A Through these discussions, we hope to inspire you to practice love in a manner that brings unity and transformation, just like Jesus did.
