The Love You Have to Give
Coastal Church Blog
by Jacqui Bishop
3w ago
It is true that once you have caught the truth of God’s love for you, you will naturally want to give it away. Jesus told us that our love for each other would be a sign to all that we belong to Him. This is a supernatural thing; it’s not a guilt trip. A lack of love is a sign that we need to get back to the source: God. We will come to the end of our own capacity to love, but the love we have to give comes from He who loves us no matter what we ever did or will ever do. Take some time to let that truth wash over you today ..read more

Abide and Go: Two Sides of the Same Mission 
Coastal Church Blog
by Pastor Dave Koop
1M ago
While abiding keeps us connected to Christ, His command to “go” ensures that we do not stagnate in our faith. When we are deeply rooted in Him, the natural result is the desire to share the gospel and bear the fruit of the Spirit that Paul talks about in Galatians 5:22,23. Abiding is not passive; it produces action. In John 15:5, Jesus says: “Whoever abides in Me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit ..read more
