Growing in Love That Lasts // Pastor Jeff Simmons (Ep. 31)

In this special Valentine’s-focused episode of Every Day Matters, Pastor Jeff reminds us that following Jesus is a daily journey, not something we save just for Sundays. He reflects on what it truly means to live fully and love well, drawing from Scripture and everyday life to show how God uses each day to grow our faith, shape our character, and deepen our relationships.

Jeff challenges the way our culture often defines love as just a feeling. Feelings come and go, but real love is built on commitment. God’s love doesn’t change, and He invites us to grow in that same steady, sacrificial love—with our spouses, families, friends, and even those who are hard to love. Love shows up through patience, kindness, forgiveness, and intentional choices over time.

This episode is a reminder that love is the clearest mark of a follower of Jesus. When we receive God’s unconditional love and pass it on to others, our everyday lives become a powerful witness. Because when we live surrendered, every day really does matter.
