    Our love of God, if deep and true, must needs exclude--and therefore hate--all things that draw us away

    “Love, love, love, love. Christian hear this is your call. Love your neighbor as yourself, for God loves us all.” Christians hear a lot about love. Today’s New Testament and Gospel readings are the standard texts on love, maybe throw in John 3:16 and 1 Corinthians 13, and ...read more

    Does how you live your life exhibit your love for God?

    Today let’s ask the question, “Can I be described by the term LOVE?” Does how you live your life exhibit your love for God? Everyone has had a first love in life. Do you remember yours?

    Martha was working in the kitchen to earn Jesus’ approval, while Mary was sitting in the living room listening to Him teach. But Jesus had no problem with Mary. Why? Because our love of Him must come before our service.

Busyness . . . breeds distraction. - Joanna Weaver(1) One time a counterfeit bill made it into circulation and no one knew it was fake for quite some time.

    The church tries all sorts of gimmicks to quell falling numbers, but God simply wants us to get back to the basics... Faith, Hope and Love.

    Faith, hope and love. In AD 50 Corinth was one of the most important cities, commercially of the day, controlling much of the shipping between the East and the West. It was a city heavily steeped in Greek culture, its idolatry and immorality. Paul established the Church, after spending 18 months ...read more

    The wonderful thing about being made God’s children is that he gives us his Spirit to enable us to be like him, and that likeness is shown most clearly in our love for others. And so, as we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in u

    I always get edgy when I hear someone make a definitive statement about God. There are so many aspects to God that any single statement always feels a bit deficient. So, for example, when someone says God is all-powerful, I find myself waiting for them to add that he’s also all-knowing, and ...read more

    We love because we belong to God and that's what he does. God's love is sacrificial, self-giving. It's a love that's seen in the way we love because we're his body here on earth.
