Series: Core Christianity – Part 4
Speaker: Pastor Daniel
In This Episode:
It’s possible to believe the right things and still not follow Jesus. Why? Because we don’t follow what we know—we follow what we love. In this message, Pastor Daniel challenges us to examine our deepest affections. From Peter’s reinstatement to the story of the prodigal son, we see that love determines direction. If we don’t love Jesus most, we’ll always struggle to follow Him fully.
Key Themes:
- Loving Jesus as the foundation of discipleship
- How misplaced love leads to compromise or drift
- Repentance as a redirection of love
- Belief vs. affection: why knowledge isn't enough
Reflection Questions:
- What competes for your love more than Jesus?
- Are you a believer or a follower—and how can you tell?
- How can you return to your first love this week?

- Matthew 10:37–39
