This week we hear from Jason again as he brings the Youth Workcamp theme home to the congregation.  This week covers the final three parts of what it means to Love Out Loud.  Download the sermon outline and check it out in parts.  The first audio file is all of the sermon leading up to the video.  Then check out the video and continue with the final section of audio.

Interested in going deeper with the sermon? Here are some questions to reflect on this week:

1. Who is God calling me to forgive today? Myself? Someone else?
2. What does forgiveness tell me about the character of God (the Giver)?
3. If I could talk directly to one of the youth that went to Workcamp what would I want them to know?
