Sheila’s Story from Cross Point Church on Vimeo.
Love God, love people.
At Cedar Creek Church we say that all the time. It is a “Reader’s Digest” version of the answer that Jesus gave to the question, “which is the greatest commandment?” (Matthew 22:34-40).
It is our mission in a nutshell.
But, do we mean it?
To say, “love God, love people” is easy. To live it out is an entirely different thing.
Could you love this woman? Would you be willing to show the love of Jesus to her in simple, practical ways?
I pray that, like our friends at Cross Point Church, we would be a church known for HOW we love and WHO we love…especially, crackhead prostitutes.

Jesus said that he came to preach good news to the poor…and that good news brought healing to Sheila and reconciled her back to God! Thanks for sharing that, Wes. Yes, I want to be part of the church that will love the unlovely.
