    Reflecting Jesus In Your Community

    In this episode, we dive into the heart of Jesus' example of leadership and service, exploring how to reflect His love to our communities. Jesus didn’t come as a judge or warrior but as a healer and servant, revealing God's heart through love and humility. We discuss what it means to lead by serving, speak with compassion, and see others as God sees them. Discover how we can “war” with love, bringing hope and healing rather than division, and embody Christ’s mission to serve, not to be served. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/thethirdoption/support
