Welcome to the NPFCC Messages Podcast. In today's sermon, Pastor Devan dives into the essence of what it means to truly live as the family of God. We're exploring a timeless message that echoes from the early church to our modern congregations: 'Love one another as I have loved you.' But what does that really look like in a world fractured by division, jealousy, and individualism?
Join us as we unpack the profound teachings of 1 John 3:11-18, where love is not just a feeling but a transformative action. We'll journey through the history of church relationships, confront the challenges that hinder our love, and discover the antidote that Jesus offers—a love that is humble, selfless, and generous.
Are you ready to explore how loving our brothers and sisters in Christ can not only heal our hearts but also make the church an irresistible beacon of hope to the world? Stay tuned, because this episode might just change the way you see your spiritual family and your role within it."

Welcome back to the NPFCC Messages podcast. In this sermon, we explore the theme of "Truth and Love" through the New Testament letters of 1, 2, and 3 John. The message emphasizes the importance of holding onto biblical truth while demonstrating love to others. It addresses the challenges of discerning truth in a world filled with conflicting messages and the presence of those who oppose the gospel. The sermon encourages believers to remain steadfast in their faith, rely on the Holy Spirit, and live with anticipation of Christ's return. Listeners are reminded of God's lavish love and the call to help others find and follow Jesus in a world that often seeks to pull us apart. Join us as we delve into how to live out our faith with truth and love.
Key Scriptures: 1 John 2:18-3:10
