Back to EpisodesThe Best Thing You Will Ever Do (Jim Ellis) | HEAR (August 30, 2026)
Description
In week three of our "HEAR" series, Pastor Jim Ellis explores the second part of Jesus' invitation in Matthew 11:28–30. Beyond the call to "come," Jesus gives a warm, urgent, and active challenge: "Take my yoke upon you." Looking at the Greek imperatives, Jim unpacks how a yoke binds us together with Christ and invites us into His way of living—a life marked by agape love for God, love for others, and stepping out in the Great Commission. While the "empire of me" often stands in the way, taking on Jesus' yoke isn't burdensome; it is a yoke of true freedom.
Weekly Challenge: Spend 9 minutes with God in Matthew 22:33–40 this week and ask Him: “What are you saying to me, and how should I respond?”
