Do you ever wish you could just say to someone who is asking you to do something, “I don’t have time for this!” Well, maybe you can. The trick is to approach it like Nehemiah did, way back in the time of rebuilding the temple.

“I Don’t Have Time for This!” by Pastor Ryan Emmons

Romans 12:6-8 (NLT) ; 羅 馬 書 12:6-8 (CUVS)
Nehemiah 6:1-9 (NLT) ; 尼 希 米 記 6:1-9 (CUVS)

Pastor Ryan’s sermon “Love Begins at Home” teaches that loving one another, within the family of God, is the first thing that must happen before anything beyond that can be fully and truly realized. Also, since our love for others comes from our love for and in Christ, we must fill ourselves with God’s love above all.

John 13:31-35 (NLT) / 約 翰 福 音 13:31-35 (CUVS)
1 John 4:15-21 (NLT) / 約 翰 一 書 4:15-21 (CUVS)

Here is a PDF of Pastor Ryan’s sermon notes (not a transcript) for you to download.

The CBWC Heartland “Theology of the Ordinary” podcasts include a series by Ed Neufeld called “Not Improving On Our Instructions“. It deals with this topic of loving each other as Jesus’s primary instruction to the church.
