This week, Pastor John kicked off a new series on the letters to the Seven Churches in the book of Revelation. He emphasized the theme of knowing Jesus as your "first love" and prioritizing Him as the centerpiece of your life. Pastor John passionately spoke about living for Jesus, not just knowing about Him, and how our relationship with Jesus should permeate every aspect of our existence. He reminded us that Jesus should not only hold a prominent place but be preeminent in our lives. As we study the church in Ephesus, Pastor John challenged us to examine our own faith and ensure that we have not lost our first love for Jesus. He concluded that Jesus is the reason we live, and our spiritual journey is nurtured by constantly growing closer to Him. Let’s keep Him as the primary relationship in our hearts and lives.
