LOVE IS GREATEST - 1 Corinthians 13:8-13
Of the great Biblical mandates for the believer - faith, hope and love - the greatest is love; i. e. sacrificial, unconditional, unselfish agape love. In this sermon you will hear some of the qualities of each and how they work together as well as why love is the superior of the three.

LOVE IS RELENTLESS - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
The relentless love of God is practised in our lives as He enables us to silently bear, faithfully believe, actively hope and continually endure - all things - for the sake of those we love. This is divine love that never dies.
-
LOVE IS POSITIVE - 1 Corinthians 13:6-7
An often overlooked characteristic of love is that it always looks for the best in those who are being loved. This is a key to rightly relating to those in our lives who are hard to love. Our prayer is that this message will help increase the ministry of reconciliation where it is needed.

LOVE IS HUMBLE - 1 Corinthians 13:4-5
True love is humble in that it does not boast or manifest pride; nor does it seek to create envy in the hearts of others.
True love humbles us in that it moves us to serve others, even if it means stooping down like Jesus did to meet the needs of the lowly ones; like us. -
LOVE IS ENVY-FREE - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Genuine love is continually wanting what is best for others, which is the remedy to envy.
The answer to e-N-V-y is a New View that always looks for the best in others and looks out for the best for others. -
LOVE IS KIND - 1 Corinthians 13:1-4
While patience is love's protection against negative reactions to distress, kindness is love's proactive response to opportunities for helping another's needs to be met or their distresses be eased. This teaching concludes with Holy Communion during a time of reflecting on God's covenant kindness toward us.
