Courageous Love

These resources were originally created for Easter (2025) but you may find the theme of 'Courageous Love' useful for your corporate worship and small groups today. Adapt the below resources accordingly.

Courageous Love is a call to love boldly as Jesus did, seen in complete fulfilment with his death and resurrection. We want to remember the sacrifice and triumph of Jesus with thanks and allow this love to compel us to live for him in courageous ways. The challenge to love may come in unexpected ways, as did the life lived by Jesus.

Resources available:

  • Message from the territorial leaders
  • Teaching starter outlines
  • Small group outline
  • Courageous Love challenge
  • PowerPoint templates
  • Promotional graphics
