Challenge

February 23, 2020 John Burke

We can’t change a person’s heart, but we can challenge them in love. And God tells us that as followers of Him, we are called to challenge others to seek God. Although there are great rewards that come from such a challenge, guiding others in this way can be difficult. Are we willing to love people enough to overcome all self-focused fear?

Jesus modeled a way to lovingly talk to others in hopes of being truly heard. How can we use Jesus’ example to love others well with our words and point them toward the true source of love?
