As we conclude the “love” segment of our Faith.Hope.Love sermon series, we do so with a call to action and an opportunity for action! Love is a verb after all! Love does things for others! Our message today will be a reminder that we never worry about our own resources, how much we have or don’t have as the case may be. We will remember that we simply put our “Love in Action” regardless of the personal ramifications involved. When we do so, we are then reminded that Jesus provides for us so that we can provide for others in turn. But today we will be reminded that we don’t just talk the talk but we walk the walk as we will literally be reaching into the lives of people in our community who need to see and experience the love of God in Jesus Christ. Today we we be reminded of “Love in Action” but we will, as a congregation, also put love into action!

Inevitably we are going to come across people who are different than we are. Inevitably we will encounter men and women whose lives are even the antithesis of who we are. Could be their life-style...could be their race...could be their faith life. Whatever it is, they are seen by us, perhaps only in our hearts and minds as some sort of “outcast”. But our Lord Jesus calls us to show His love to everyone...not just the ones we love or the ones we are attracted to...but everyone. In fact, you could make the case that the Lord wants us to seek out the outcast and show them the love of God in Jesus Christ. Through Jesus’ example today we will be reminded that we are to show His “Love for the Outcast” every single day.
