As You Go: Love
This morning, we will look to the author and perfecter of our faith, Jesus, as the supreme model for understanding how we are to love as we go through the daily rhythms of our lives. The Bible has so much to say on Love, and we may only scratch the surface on the means, attitudes, and attributes of Christ’s Love for us. There is no better way to understand how we can love people than to examine how Christ loves us.
