     | 493 views

    The Bible reveals that true, enduring love is rooted in one person: Jesus Christ. Without Him, love is shallow and temporary. With Him, love is powerful, life-transforming, and world-changing.

Or is it something deeper—something eternal? The Bible reveals that true, enduring love is rooted in one person: Jesus ...read more

    A young man confusing lust for love unleashes havoc on the Kingdom of David. His actions serve to caution us not to confuse lust for love.

    *2 Samuel 13:1-19* *When Love Turns to Lust* “Absalom, David’s son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar. And after a time Amnon, David’s son, loved her.

    Authenticity before God begins with self-examination, proceeds to self-disclosure, and involves trusted advisors.

    National Baptist Memorial Church, Washington, DC March 13, 2005 The issue is not an academic discussion as to whether there is a God. Relatively few doubt or debate that. The issue is not whether God is real, but whether we know how to get real with God. Let me play out a little scene with ...read more

     | 6,008 views

    Epiphany 4: What we say we believe and what we do can sometimes be at odds with each other. If we are to live out the mission that God has given the Church, love looks like his people sharing Jesus with others.

    What believer has not been touched by the beautiful ’love chapter’? These words to the Corinthians are almost poetic in nature, and yet so authentic that they touch the soul. In these words, God gives us a beautiful description of what ‘love’ looks like: "If I speak in the tongues of men and of ...read more

    Listen to a Genuine Love Song 1) Learn how much God has done for you 2) Learn how much God expects from you

    What percentage of songs on the radio is about love? 50%? 75%? 90%? I don’t know the exact percentage but whether it’s rock, pop, or country, I’d say that most songs are about love and relationships. Does this mean that songwriters understand love because they write about it so much? No. Not when ...read more

    God’s love is supremely exhibited in the cross of Christ.

    The cross of Christ – by which we mean his suffering, and death, and resurrection – is a topic packed with significance. Without the cross, there would be no Christianity. No forgiveness of sins, no eternal life, no hope for the future, no power for this present life. The cross is more than a ...read more
