Series: Love Is

Topic: Love

In this series, we will unpack the Bible’s famous “love chapter” (1Corinthians 13) verse-by-verse, and phrase-by-phrase, to discover more of what God’s love is.

As we “make space for Jesus” in this way, his Spirit will continue to “shape us in God’s love” so that we can better share that love with each other, with our community, and with the world in a time of great need.

Love defines God’s character and binds together His holiness, justice, righteousness, wisdom, goodness, faithfulness, trustworthiness, grace, and mercy. God’s love is active, breaks down walls of separation, and reaches out to the whole of creation.

So according to Paul and biblical writers agape-love is …

  • rooted in the character of God the Father
  • modeled in the cross-shaped life of Jesus
  • poured into us by the enabling of the Holy Spirit, for the benefit of others.

We grow – mature – in our knowledge of God when we practice love of God and others. The most captivating quality of the Christian faith is a loving and worshipping community of Jesus people.
