01/26/25 • 29 min
Are you doing all the right things—serving, showing up, and staying committed—but feeling distant from Christ? It’s possible to look faithful on the outside while your heart quietly drifts from Him.
In this episode of Sunday Renewal, we dive into Revelation 2:1-4 and unpack Jesus’s message to the church in Ephesus. While they were hard-working and doctrinally sound, they had abandoned the love they once had for Him. If you’ve ever felt like your faith has become a routine or wondered how to restore the passion you once had, this episode is for you.
Together, we’ll explore:
✅ What it means to leave your first love—and how to recognize it.
✅ Why busyness for Christ isn’t the same as intimacy with Him.
✅ Three practical steps to reignite your love for Jesus and revive your faith.
Don’t let your faith grow cold. Jesus doesn’t just call us out—He calls us back. Let this episode inspire you to return to the vibrant, joyful love that started it all.

Have you ever felt like you’re doing all the right things—serving, praying, standing for truth—but your heart feels distant from Christ? The fire that once burned so brightly has faded into routine.
