Troy Landis draws on Hebrews 10:19-25 and the picture of love and good deeds as the symptoms of a healthy spiritual body, the way energy, sharp thinking, and coordination mark a healthy physical one. He names the tension honestly: how do we encourage each other on toward love and good deeds without falling into the merit posture of ‘I should do more’? He traces two movements: drawing near to God to receive His unfailing love, finding rest, healing and forgiveness, and remembering who we are in Christ; then small deeds done with great love, loving the one in front of you, which starts simply by giving attention. The recording begins a few minutes into the message.
