Day 200: Love That Delights and Pursues — Song of Songs 1–4 | Bible In A Year (CSB)


Listen Later

As we begin the Song of Songs, we’re invited into a poetic celebration of love, beauty, and desire. These opening chapters express mutual longing between lovers, the joy of being known and cherished, and the intimacy of covenantal relationship. Whether read as romantic poetry or as a reflection of God’s love for His people, the song calls us to consider the sacred nature of love that delights, honors, and pursues.Questions:1.
