Love Is...
The world can be a pretty rough place at times. Maybe you’re going through a tough patch and need encouragement in your struggles. What is powerful enough to do that? Love. Why? Because whatever difficulties you may face, in the end, love wins, thanks to Jesus Christ.
Rev. Rick Kress

Unwind, relax, reflect, and connect with God.
God is Love
Concluding our series on God’s attributes, we consider that God is love. Not only that God loves, but God is love. This characteristic inspired Jesus and will inspire the follower of Jesus, too. Tune in to consider how the fact that God is love changes how you look at the world.
