Love Like Jesus: The Foundation of True Manhood

What makes a man truly godly? Is it his strength, his leadership, or his ability to provide and protect? Those things matter — but according to Scripture, none of it works the way it should if it isn’t rooted in love.

In this message, Pastor Carlos Fernandez from CrossPoint City Church unpacks what he calls the most important mark of biblical manhood: love. Without love, leadership becomes pride. Provision turns into performance. Protection becomes control. Love is what keeps everything in its right place.

Through 1 Corinthians 13 and Matthew 22, Pastor Carlos walks men through three powerful truths that redefine what it means to be a man of God. First, you must experience the love of God for yourself. It’s not enough to hear about Jesus — you need to encounter Him personally. The Gospel isn’t about what you can do to reach God; it’s about what God did to reach you. Jesus left heaven, took on human flesh, and carried the weight of your sin because His love was stronger than the nails that held Him to the cross.

Second, you are called to love God with your whole life. Not part of it. Not just on Sundays. Jesus said to love God with all your heart, soul, and mind — meaning your emotions, your identity, and your thoughts all belong to Him. Loving God isn’t a part-time commitment. It’s full-time surrender. It’s choosing to let Him lead every decision, desire, and dream.

Finally, true manhood shows up when you love others out of the overflow of your relationship with God. Your family, your coworkers, your friends, even strangers — they all deserve to see the love of Jesus through the way you live. The reason you love is because He first loved you. The reason you forgive is because you’ve been forgiven. The reason you show up for people is because God never stopped showing up for you.

If we get this right — if men begin to love like Jesus — it will change everything. Our homes will look different. Our churches will grow stronger. Our communities will feel the impact of men who live out the love of God daily.

Watch until the end for a powerful prayer and challenge to become a man who experiences God’s love, loves Him completely, and loves others faithfully.
