    Love is 1)Enriching 2) Edifying &3)Enduring.

    It’s a rare thing these days to get a letter. I’m not talking about the junk mail of solicitations, or bills, nor the hundreds of emails we get but a genuine hand written letter from someone we care about. There is a warmth and personal touch that we get in no other medium. 1 Corinthians 13 is one ...read more

    Love Is Forgetful Series

    Contributed by Paul Green on Oct 28, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 24,715 views

    We often think of forgetfulness as a weakness, as a problem. And more often than not that is true. But there is a time when forgetfulness becomes an absolute necessity. Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ He says that love is forgetful.

    In the middle of that list of what love is, Paul says that ‘Love – keeps no record of wrongs’ (v5). In other words what he is saying is that, as well as being patient, and kind and a whole host of other things – love is also forgetful! –‘ Love - keeps no record of wrongs’ Love is forgetful! Now ...read more

    The church was designed to be an irresistible community. Yet people are not always drawn to it. How can we change that?

    4. An Irresistible Community: 1 Corinthians March 28, 2010 Loving If one word was all that was allowed to describe the person of God and the essence of who He is, if we had only one word we could use to show His character that word would have to be love.

    When Christians get caught up with the traditions of Christmas, we have a tendency to forget the real reason behind this special celebration - LOVE. If we removed the commercialism from Christmas, would it be the same? I don’t think the world would know w

    True love is a lot deeper than any of us imagine. Understanding it is probably the most important key to growing as a Christian.

    There are a few times for a pastor teaching through the Word of God when a real defining moment arrives. I feel we are at one of those places today. Often times people want a key to becoming a mature Christian. I believe we have such a key before us today. But make no mistake, what we are about to ...read more

    If you think you understand what real love is, think again. 1 Corinthians 13 is not a bunch of feel goodisms, but delves deeply into the character of a mature person in Christ. Are you ready?

    We began last week looking at Paul showing the Corinthians how much they had missed the real character of God by wanting to be “spiritual” over being loving. In the first three verses Paul tells us that no matter how impressive we are with our spiritual credentials, knowledge, power, or ...read more
