Sermon: Otherly Love

Scripture: Matthew 9:9-13 NLT

Main Point: Love broken people before they are fixed.

Misconception #1: Jesus loves everyone but only likes Christians. Truth: Jesus invites everyone to follow him out of a life of brokenness.

Misconception #2: Jesus only accepts people who have it together. Truth: Jesus loves us as we are, but doesn't leave us that way.

Misconception #3: Jesus separates himself from hurting people. Truth: Jesus wants us to go where the hurt is.
