What moves you?
I’m not talking about being moved from the outside in, but from the inside out.
What actually stirs something deep in you, enough to make you step beyond comfort and into compassion?
We’ve all felt it at some point. You know, that inner pull that moves us to act for the good of something or someone else.
Paul describes it like this: “For Christ’s love compels us.” (2 Corinthians 5:14)
And that word compel isn’t about guilt or pressure. It’s something far deeper.
It’s when God’s love takes hold of you and refuses to let you stay the same. It stirs you, shapes you, and moves you from inaction to action.
It sends you on a mission that’s worth living, one worth loving.
It’s love that doesn’t just comfort—it compels.
It doesn’t just reach you—it releases you.
When that kind of love gets inside of us, mission stops being just an idea. It becomes personal.
We start seeing people differently. Not as projects to fix, but as people to love, the way God loves us.
And before long, you realize you’re not just getting through life, you’re living sent. Right where you live, work, play, and beyond.
Why? Because others need to know the same love that changed you and continues to change everything: Jesus.
So tonight, as we pray, let’s ask the Holy Spirit to awaken our hearts again and to stir us with His love and send us into His mission for the world:
- That our hearts would be stirred by Christ’s love to see and love every person as God sees them, worth loving and dying for.
- For Fort Worth ISD leadership and teachers, in light of the TEA’s pending takeover. Pray for wisdom, protection, and revival among students and staff.
- For our upcoming 2025 ENC Friendsgiving, it would be a moment of connection and gospel conversation on campus at TCU.
- For the 2026 ENC Student Conference and 2026 GO Conference, that students and missionaries would be filled with boldness to live sent lives.
- For Mission 2029, Every Nation’s global call to plant campus-reaching churches across the world, and God raising up and releasing more laborers into His harvest of 20 new nations by 2029.
As we saw Sunday, God’s mission touches every part of life—it’s global, local, personal, supernatural, and yes, even vulnerable.
But at its core, it’s all love. The kind that makes us sons and daughters who carry heaven’s invitation to earth as His ambassadors.
Like His, let our love move us beyond what’s comfortable, and into the places where and to whom grace is needed most.
Because when we love like Jesus, the world doesn’t just see Him. They experience His love firsthand, just like we do daily.
See you at 7 pm!
God Bless,
Pastor Alvin & Mallary Brown

P.S. Is there something specific you need prayer for this week? Just reply—we’d be honored to stand with you.
Additionally, we will make space to pray for God to extend His reach beyond the limits of our city and into the world, seeking His wisdom, unity, safety, and provision for the following people and initiatives:
Let’s pray for Campus Missionary Malcolm Laws and his wife, Cassidy, as they serve with Every Nation Campus at Bethel Murfreesboro, reaching students at Middle Tennessee State University. After encountering Jesus in college, Malcolm answered God’s call to help students experience that same transformation. Together, the Laws share the gospel, disciple students, and equip future leaders to carry the gospel into the world.
Let’s pray for and support The Every Nation Campus Expansion Fund as we reach tomorrow’s leaders on today’s campuses. Your all-encompassing support fuels gospel transformation through student conferences, missionary training, and new campus outreaches, helping more students encounter Jesus before and after they graduate.
