Alleluia in LOVE
Sometimes we say we love people, but what we really mean is we prefer them when they fit what already works for us. We’re often quick to love when it’s convenient, when it doesn’t interrupt our schedule, or when our comfort isn’t challenged. But real relationships get messy and require patience. They expose selfishness we didn’t even know was there. If we’re honest, we’re all tempted to protect ourselves instead of giving ourselves.
To love differently can be hard, but there IS a kind of love that doesn’t start with our efforts but with being deeply loved first. This love reshapes how we respond, how we forgive, and how we show up. It’s powerful, but it will definitely cost us something. It will change not just what we say, but what we’re willing to lay down and what we’re willing to pick up. It’s the Jesus-way of love.

Message Series Description:
When something truly captures our hearts and captivates our souls, when trust deepens and hope takes root, joy begins to surface in ways that can’t be contained. This is what the Bible means when it talks about praise. It’s a kind of soul-satisfaction that refuses to stay silent.
For all of us, praise like this grows out of real life experiences, not perfect theology or complete understanding. Joy finds its voice in moments of creation, surrender, love, valleys, hope, and community ... and it truly learns to sing in light of Jesus and His victory over sin, death, and the grave. Because real praise isn’t something we can force, it’s a response that flows when our loyalties are rightly aligned and our hearts are truly alive.
