Last night’s Candy Land Harvest Fest was the best ever. I want to give major props to Jason and Holly and their team. It was incredible to be able to touch so many people from our community and let them know that Jesus cares and so do we. I personally spoke to many who were interested in attending our church but that is not the point. Of course we want people to come and grow in the love of Christ but we want to really represent Christ to our community. That means loving with no strings attached. I believe that if we truly love our community then a door will be opened for us to share the reason we love which is that Christ first loved us. That is what Jesus did, He loved and gave whether they ever “joined” His church. I want to ask all of you reading this today to ask God to help us love the people around us, whether they ever accept Christ or come to church with us or join our small group. If we can find God-honoring ways of loving people then we will have opportunity to minister to them. When we make it about attending or joining they will think we are fake and have ulterior motives. I love Him today because He loved me like no one else ever has. Jesus loved people, if we love Him we’ll love people.
