Noah Herrin teaches that we follow Jesus not by performance but by falling in love with him. He lays out four practical steps to fall (and stay) in love with Jesus: pay attention, notice his beauty, get to know him, and remember your first love. Noah illustrates these steps with his own courtship story, the Mary-and-Martha passage (Luke 10), Paul’s exhortations in Philippians, and Jesus’ rebuke to the church at Ephesus in Revelation. He closes by reminding the congregation that the gospel is both how we start and how we sustain our relationship with Christ.
““we don't follow Jesus by trying to perform better we follow Jesus by Falling in Love”” · Noah Herrin
Take it with you
Practical steps: intentionally give Jesus your attention (reduce distracting screen time and redirect your focus to him); cultivate a gratitude habit that connects the good things in life back to God so you notice his beauty; get to know Jesus through regular Bible reading, prayer, small groups and the 'holy habits' rhythm; and regularly rehearse the gospel and your salvation story so you remember your first love and avoid slipping into mere religious activity.

Do Your Job | Noah Herrin
Noah Herrin argues that work is part of God's good design - given before the Fall - and should be understood as worship, not punishment. He develops that idea by showing how the Hebrew word avoda links work and worship, urging Christians to do their jobs with excellence as an act of service to God.
Wake Up | Noah Herrin at WAY REVIVAL '26
Noah Herrin preaches from Matthew 26 (with other biblical references) calling Christians to "wake up" spiritually. He centers on Jesus in Gethsemane and the jarring detail that the disciples fell asleep when asked to keep watch, drawing three main reasons for their sleep: they got comfortable with God's presence, casual with holiness, and careless with their time.
