    This message explains the meaning of real love.

    Text: “Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love” (I John 4:8).

    Paul describes love’s immeasurabley wide- unassuming-forever dimensions.

    So Sonja and Mike, the two of you are “in love.” Can you tell me what that means exactly? Is being “in love” like being “in Hong Kong”? Is love a place? Does it have an address? Is being “in love” like being “in a tree”? I ask this because when couples falter in love they often say they’ve “fallen ...read more

    Why does our way of expressing love change so much over time.

    I love you but… 1 Corinthians 13:4-8A The word “Love” has been distorted to mean a lot less that I think it should. It happens so innocently and easily.
