    What is love? How will I know love when I see it? Is it just something I feel inside? Is it just a word we say? What the World says about love and what the Word says about love are two very different ideas.

    1 John 3:16-19 (NLT) 16 We know what real love is because Jesus gave up his life for us. So we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters.  This isn't necessarily dying physically for someone but we should be willing to give a part of ourselves for others ...read more
