Where Everything Begins

Aug 3, 2026    Pastor Jeff Lambert

What if the greatest thing you could ever experience was not something you earned or deserved, but something freely given on your worst day? This Sunday, we explored the foundation of everything -- real love. Not a feeling, not a Hallmark moment, but an action. Romans 5:8 reminds us that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. That is where your worth comes from.


God did not wait for your best day. He did not fall in love with a future, cleaned-up version of you. He loved you right where you were, at your lowest, and he acted on it.


The reaction to that kind of love? Matthew 22 says it plainly -- love God with everything you have, and love your neighbor. Real love changes your priorities, your words, your generosity, and your life. It moves you from death to life.
