In this sermon, we explored the heart of a faithful shepherd through the words of the apostle John in 2 John 1:4–6. John doesn't rejoice in numbers or outward success, but in seeing God's people walk in the truth—a life shaped by the grace, presence, and commands of Jesus. We were reminded that the call to love one another isn't new—it’s foundational. It's woven throughout all of Scripture and modeled perfectly by Christ. We looked at how truth, love, and obedience are not separate ideas, but one unified path of discipleship. As believers, we can be encouraged by the truth that God meets us in our greatest need, and from His presence flows gratitude, love, obedience, and even joyful sacrifice. We ended our time with a simple yet profound call: walk in truth, love one another, and let your life reflect the God who first loved you.
