Finding Your First Love | Revelation 2 | Ps. David Johnson

What happens when something that once felt electric slowly becomes… normal? In this message, “Finding Your First Love” we press pause on the heavy conversations of the Off Limits series to recalibrate our hearts around the joy of salvation—the joy that once defined our faith but can quietly fade over time. Drawing from Romans 5, Revelation 2, Psalm 51, and 1 Peter 1, this message explores: Why joy often fades even when our faith is still “active” How God designed us to grow beyond emotional highs The danger of faith that keeps working but stops loving What Jesus meant when He said, “You have forgotten your first love” How to reclaim the joy of salvation without living in the past Using the lens of hedonic adaptation, Scripture, and everyday life - from marriages to careers to driving up the 2 freeway -this teaching reminds us that salvation was never meant to be a moment we remember, but a foundation we live from. Jesus’ words to the church in Ephesus are both a warning and an invitation: “Turn back to me and do the works you did at first.” This message walks through what that looks like practically: Turn back to Jesus (repentance as return) Do the work—removing joy killers and filling our lives with joy fillers Living from salvation, not just believing in it If you’ve ever felt distant from God… If your faith feels quieter than it used to… If obedience remains but joy feels gone… This message is for you. 🎧 Joining online?
