Loving Beyond Differences
by Ministry Support on May 7th, 2026
"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” - Galatians 3:28It is easy to love people who are like us. When we share the same background, hobbies, political views, or socioeconomic status, connection comes naturally. We speak the same "language," both literally and metaphorically. However, the biblical call to... Read More

by Ministry Support on May 6th, 2026

Love Takes Work
by Ministry Support on May 1st, 2025
"Above all, maintain constant love for one another, since love covers a multitude of sins." - 1 Peter 4:8The world likes to paint love as something effortless. If it is real, it should come naturally. If it is meant to be, it should not require hard work. If it takes too much effort, then maybe it was never true love in the first place.

Love is More Than a Feeling
by Ministry Support on April 16th, 2025
"Love never ends." - 1 Corinthians 13:8 The world will tell you that love is a feeling. It is the butterflies in your stomach, the rush of excitement, the spark that makes everything seem perfect. Movies, songs, and social media all paint love as something you fall into, something that just happens when the emotions are strong enough. But if love is only a feeling, what happens when those feelings... Read More

Love is Not About You
by Ministry Support on April 14th, 2025
"For people will be lovers of self..." - 2 Timothy 3:2 The world has made love all about self. It teaches that love is about getting what you want, feeling how you want to feel, and making sure your needs are met first. If a relationship does not serve you, leave it. If someone does not make you happy, cut them off. Love is about self-gratification, and if someone truly loves you, they will prove ... Read More

The Search for Love
by Ministry Support on April 13th, 2025
"The one who does not love does not know God, because God is love." - 1 John 4:8 When you hear the word love, what comes to mind? Maybe it is a relationship, a family memory, or even a scene from a movie. Every person has an idea of what love is and a belief about how to find it. Some search for it through dating apps, hoping the right match will finally bring them happiness. Others pour themselve... Read More

by Ministry Support on March 22nd, 2024

We’re not talking about some half-hearted, conditional love; we’re talking about the real deal. Now, here’s the kicker—we were created by God and for God. But here’s where it gets interesting. To experience true love, you need something crucial—free will... Read More

by Ministry Support on February 10th, 2024
“Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.” – Philippians 2:4 Have you ever noticed how love and selfishness stand at opposite ends of the spectrum? It’s like two forces constantly vying for control of our hearts. In Philippians 2:4, we’re reminded, “Let each of you look not only to his own interests but also to the interests of other...
