Edge God In Podcast 145: Altruism begins with a fundamental message of Jesus, God’s Love
Learning Objective: Understand Altruism from Jesus perspective.

This week’s podcast is titled: Altruism begins with a fundamental message of Jesus, God’s Love
Mark 12:31 commands us to Love thy neighbor as yourself. I believe that God’s Love is Incredible. It justifies our lives and fills us with hope for the future. To our benefit, God’s love guides us toward other actions, including mercy, discipline, and patience. As we learn to love the Lord back, we grow in the fruits of the Spirit and in how we experience compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, all elements of altruistic behavior.
This bible study will share some thoughts on Altruism and how it starts with experiencing and sharing God’s love.
Dear Lord,
Heavenly Father, I come to you in thanks and praise. Thank you for your Love which Conquers all. We pray on Ephesians 3:18 and 3:17 that we have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp the width, length, and depth of the Love of Christ and that this helps us in our altruistic behaviors. Help us understand your Love, and let us continue to open ourselves to the holy spirit recognizing Christ in your hearts through faith. Thank you for allowing us to this be rooted and grounded in Love. Amen
