On March 16th, Pastor Jason continued our series of "What's Love Got to do With It?" by exploring Luke 19 and the story of Zacchaeus. It focused on how Jesus' radical love broke down social barriers and transformed a despised tax collector.

In this powerful message from our "What's Love Got To Do With It?" series, we delve into the often-misunderstood topic of money and its influence on our lives. Using 2 Corinthians 8 as our foundation, Pastor Jason challenges us to examine our relationship with wealth and possessions.

Are you in control of your finances, or are they controlling you? We explore the dangers of the love of money leading us away from a life centered on God's love.

In this episode, Pastor Jason Heron unpacks Revelation 2:1-5, where Jesus calls the church in Ephesus—and us—to return to our first love. While they behaved right and believed right, their hearts had drifted. Have we, too, neglected our relationship with Christ, becoming distracted by duty over devotion?

Jesus invites us to realign our priorities, making love for Him our first pursuit. Through three simple but powerful steps—Remember, Repent, Repeat—we can reignite our passion for God and walk in renewed intimacy with Him.

Join us as we explore what it truly means to love Jesus first, above all else.

Host: Pastor Lynda Heron

In this episode, we explore the story of Joseph through the lens of faith and God’s love. From the youthful dreams of Genesis 37:5 to the fulfillment of God’s plan in Genesis 50:20, Joseph’s journey reveals how faith matures through seasons of testing.

•⁠ ⁠*Pamper Season* – An immature faith (Gen 37:5)

•⁠ ⁠*Pit Season* – A personal faith (Gen 37:20)

•⁠ ⁠Potiphar’s Season – A serving faith (Col 3:23)

•⁠ ⁠Prison Season – A waiting faith (Gen 39:21)

•⁠ ⁠Palace Season – A positioned faith (Gen 50:20)

Each stage shaped Joseph’s destiny, proving that love isn’t just an emotion—it’s the foundation of unwavering faith. Join us as we uncover what love really has to do with it!
