    Your work matters to God. There is great value in honest, hard work. Laziness is a landmine that can destroy a person and anyone around that person.

    Love Unquenchable

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Feb 1, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,687 views

    In many sectors of our society “tolerance” is equated with “love.” But is that a biblical concept? God is love; but was He tolerant of Sodom’s sin? Perhaps current assumptions about what love is should be examined in the light of biblical revelation.

    Love Unquenchable (10-18-15 www.LifeChurchSpringfield.org) I take as my theme these words from Song of Solomon 8:7 “Many waters cannot quench love, Nor can the floods drown it….” On November 5, 1982 a precious gift from God was laid in my arms. Jeanie and I named her Kathy Jean ...read more
