About this episode

Jenna and Beth discuss the sacrifices involved in loving others well, drawing on the example of Jesus.

Real love almost always requires sacrifice. In this vulnerable conversation, Jenna and Beth will talk about the cost of loving well: forgiving when it’s hard, staying when it’s uncomfortable, serving when we’re tired, and choosing charity when resentment feels easier. Together, we’ll look at the example of Jesus and remember that love becomes fruitful when it’s rooted in Him rather than our own limited capacity. If you’ve been carrying the heaviness that sometimes comes with loving others faithfully, this week is meant to encourage and strengthen you. Reflection Questions: Where has loving someone felt costly for me lately? Am I allowing Jesus to sustain me, or trying to love from my own strength alone?
