Let's be real—it is often hard to love difficult people. In this episode, we explore the complexities of loving like Jesus, especially those we disagree with most.
We need supernatural power and perspective to love difficult people in many situations. Some show up during election season, the annual HOA meeting, at work, church, or even in our own homes. This week, in Episode #68 of the UnPerfect Podcast, we look at how Jesus loved people well.
In this episode on loving like Jesus, we discuss:
- Following Jesus' model of praying before speaking
- Studying Jesus' practice of hospitality
- Understanding the impact our emotions have on our engagement with others
- Untangling lesser passions from our gospel mission
- Pinpointing our true enemy
- Practicing empathic listening as an act of love
- Pursuing Truth as we engage with others
