Jesus loved people the way he had always been loved by the Father and the Spirit, personally with words and actions. When Jesus was training his first disciples to be like him he did so by loving them, personally with words and actions. This transformational training took years of being loved, witnessing Jesus' way of loving, and coming along to love others with Jesus. After all of that time being loved, Jesus gave his disciples a new command:
"Love one another as I have loved you."
Being loved personally with words and actions first and then going out to love one another is the way Jesus himself did it, the way the first disciples did it, and the way we can do it today! At First Loved, we have discovered it is the only way to remain in God’s love and experience full and complete joy.

"It has transformed the way I experienced God and Jesus, read and understand scripture, and live out my faith in relation to others. In a simple phrase, 'it has changed my life because it is rooted in the gospel.'"

"The [Loving as Loved Event] gave me a new focus and affirmed that it is okay to accept pure love from God. My perspective on love was conditional no matter how much I kept trying to let that go... My intention might have been in the right place, but my perspective needed to shift... this [message] is a catalyst for the change I need to grow closer to God.
