In today’s podcast we’re going to look at the role of encouragement in putting our love into action. In a world that constantly seems to beat us down, we’re in need of some real encouragement. God has an encouraging word to speak to everyone around you. And if we’ll make space to listen, he longs to share that word with us that we might see his kingdom advancing in the heart of another. May God encourage us today, and empower us to encourage another as we make space for his loving presence. Our Scripture for today comes from Hebrews 10:23-25, and today's worship is Christ Be All Around Me by All Songs & Daughters. First15 is a daily devotional written and recorded by Craig Denison.
