What is love?
We are bombarded with messages about what love is. It's difficult to know the truth about love.
Some say love is a warm, fuzzy feeling. Some say love is a hot, passionate feeling, like a burning fire. But is that all there is to love? That seems shallow. That seems like something that won't last. Deep down, we crave something more from love.
The Bible gives us a different view of love. 1 Corinthians 13, the love chapter, describes love as patient, kind, something that never gives up, something that is hopeful.

Love is a Verb.
