In this episode of the New Hope Church podcast, we take a closer look at the theme of "Love" as part of the ongoing series "Live, Love, and Go." We explore what it truly means to love like Jesus, emphasizing the importance of unconditional love, sacrificial love, and being present and available for others.

We begin by discussing the two greatest commandments: to love God and to love our neighbors as ourselves. I highlight the challenge many of us face in truly loving ourselves, which can hinder our ability to love others effectively. It's crucial to understand our identity in Christ, as this shapes how we interact with those around us.

Throughout the episode, I outline three key aspects of Jesus' love: unconditional love, sacrificial love, and being present and available. We explore the concept of unconditional love, or "no condition love," as Jesus demonstrated by loving even those who rejected Him. I encourage listeners to reflect on their own relationships and consider who they find hardest to love.

Next, we discuss sacrificial love, drawing parallels between Jesus' ultimate sacrifice on the cross and our own willingness to sacrifice for others. I challenge listeners to evaluate their priorities and consider how they can incorporate sacrificial love into their daily lives.

Finally, we examine the importance of being present and available for others, using the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well as a powerful example. I stress that loving like Jesus requires intentionality and a willingness to be interrupted in our busy lives.
