We know it can be hard to find a church that feels like home when there are so many facets and unique things that construct one church. We recommend you check out these recent messages that capture the heart of Casas and our desire to center ourselves on Jesus and the example He gave us in loving God and loving others.
Jesus revolutionized our understanding of spiritual priorities by connecting the two greatest commandments - loving God and loving others - in a profound way. During the Last Supper, He gave a new command that loving one another as He loved us would be the defining mark of His disciples. This teaching reveals that we express our love for God through loving others, not through isolated spiritual disciplines. Making a difference requires community, as love can only exist in relationships. When we step into loving relationships, our connection with God grows stronger, enabling us to become the difference makers God created us to be.
Watch Message
Throughout this series, we’ve been learning from the Sermon on the Mount and how Jesus took Old Testament teachings and further revealed the heart of God. One of the most impactful moments is in Matthew 5:43 when Jesus teaches that it’s not about “identifying our enemies,” but ensuring we don’t become enemies ourselves. It isn’t about drawing lines between who deserves love and who doesn’t, but erasing those lines completely. By loving our enemies, we not only prevent ourselves from becoming what we hate but potentially transform both ourselves and our relationships.
Watch MessageJesus challenges us to ask, 'Who do I most want to be when this conflict is done?' Rather than fixating on fairness, we can find creative third ways to respond to injustice. This approach invites us to pause before reacting, consider our desired outcome, and even practice unexpected grace. The goal isn't just becoming fair people, but reflecting God's character and standing against injustice without becoming unjust ourselves.
