Sermon: Love With No Reason - PLUS breakout groups audio
What does love actually mean? In this sermon, Teopixqui Dez reframes love as something far more accessible — and far more powerful — than romance or sentimentality. Love isn’t rare. It isn’t fragile. It isn’t something to hoard. It’s normal. It’s active. It’s thinking of someone when you have no reason to. It’s protecting yourself from your own self-criticism. It’s choosing to love yourself on the hard days, not just the easy ones. This episode also includes breakout group audio led by Bondsmith Rich and Threadkeeper Sara, where members of the community share raw stories of healing, forgiveness, addiction recovery, suicidal ideation, and learning what it truly means to revere the self. In This Episode: Sermon with Teopixqui Dez Creating safety by physically showing up for community  “Love is thinking about you when I have no reason to”  Why we pedestalize love and make it inaccessible  Love as something meant to be shared, not hoarded  Loving yourself on hard days — not just easy ones  Divine intervention through everyday action  Love beyond romance — intimacy within community  Does your faith come from love?  Breakout Audio: Bondsmith Rich (The Veil) Bondsmith Rich shares his journey from divorce, depression, and deep resentment to forgiveness and self-love through sacrament and community. The group explores: Healing emotional pain that traditional therapy couldn’t fully resolve Alcohol recovery and breaking addiction cycles Letting go of suicidal ideation Rebuilding identity after loss Finding safety in community Speaking up and claiming space How sacrament helped reduce fear of death Raw, unfiltered testimony about transformation and resilience. Breakout Audio: Threadkeeper Sara (The Green Room) Threadkeeper Sara leads a powerful conversation on revering the self beyond surface-level self-care. Letting go of self-punishment disguised as morality Releasing perfectionism and unrealistic standards Learning to love yourself the way you love others Understanding that you are not “different” — you are human Everyday acts of embodied self-love Choosing intentional practices of reverence Homework: select an act of self-love and tell someone This discussion moves self-love from theory into daily practice.
