Rekindling Your First Love: A Call to Return to God’s Heart (with Jeff Stemple)

Flipside Christian Church
June 29, 2025

In this inspiring message from Flipside Church, guest speaker Jeff Stemple shares a heartfelt and relatable reflection on life’s challenges, drawing from his personal experiences as a husband, father, and long-time staff member celebrating ten years at Flipside. Jeff humorously recounts the overwhelming early days of parenting his two daughters and how those moments led to a season of feeling spiritually and emotionally numb. Connecting his story to the biblical church in Ephesus, Jeff explores the Apostle Paul’s teachings and Jesus’ words in Revelation, emphasizing the importance of returning to our "first love" for God. Through an engaging overview of the Book of Ephesians, Jeff highlights how God’s love, which pursued us first, transforms our motivation for living out faith in practical ways—whether in marriage, parenting, or daily struggles. Join us for a message that encourages repentance, returning to the basics, and remembering God’s initiating love to fuel a vibrant walk with Christ.
