:15 With Andy, Randy, & Jeff

It may seem almost natural to love our own team. It’s no big challenge to be devoted to the people who are on our side, our party, our school, our church, our neighborhood. But the call of Christ is to bless the opposition. This means not restricting our love to those we define as loveable, but to really be followers of Christ and practice no revenge and to love everyone. Jesus was so good at this that the religious leaders, intending to insult him, gave him the greatest compliment of his divinity—friend of sinners!One of our #fhcTAKEAWAYS from this past week asked: What is your biggest personal hurdle in thinking about loving enemies? I’ve thought about this and personally, and probably more often than we realize, our living in seclusion - be it at home, at work, even at church, among “our people”, it’s hard to love someone that you don’t know, or even realize that they exist. I would be curious to hear what has been your biggest hurdle.We welcome your feedback and questions about this topic! Please re
