Real Love In a Fake World
We live in a world that talks a lot about love—but often struggles to define it.
We live in a world that talks a lot about love—but often struggles to define it.
Every day we’re surrounded by competing voices telling us what love is, what love should feel like, and who deserves it. Yet when we come to Romans 12, Paul gives us a completely different picture. He shows us a kind of love that doesn’t just sound good—it changes lives.
In this message, Pastor Chris Schansberg explores four powerful challenges from Romans 12:9–16. You’ll discover why real love goes deeper than good intentions, why spiritual passion must be protected, why God calls us to step into the stories of people around us, and why the love we experience in Christ was never meant to stay inside the walls of the church.
This message is a reminder that real love isn’t proven by what we say. It’s proven by what we do.
Maybe God is calling you to make that phone call.
Maybe He’s calling you to encourage someone you’ve been thinking about for weeks.
Maybe He’s inviting you back to a deeper passion for Jesus.
Or maybe He’s stretching your circle and asking you to love someone who feels difficult to love.
Wherever you find yourself today, this message will encourage you to move beyond surface-level faith and embrace the kind of love that only Jesus can produce.
Because when the love of Jesus fills our hearts, it creates something the world can never manufacture.
Scripture: Romans 12:9–16
Series: When In Rome, Pt. II
Key Thought:
“Jesus’ love in us creates a kind of love the world cannot manufacture.”
