Heart for the House
October 3, 2026
Hebrews 10:24-25 calls believers not to give up meeting together but to spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Following Jesus and loving his church can't be separated, and someone who says they love the Groom but wants nothing to do with the bride is missing something important. Look for a person with a genuine heart for the local church, and make sure you have one yourself.
